ChestsAnywhere

Chests Anywhere is a Stardew Valley mod which lets you access your chests, fridge, Junimo huts, and shipping bin from anywhere and organize them your way. Transfer items without having to run around, from the comfort of your bed to the deepest mine level.

Contents

Install

  1. Install the latest version of SMAPI.
  2. Install this mod from Nexus mods.
  3. Run the game using SMAPI.

Use

Access chests by pressing B. This will show your chests grouped by category. Navigate by clicking the top dropdowns, or by pressing the left or right key.

Edit chests by clicking the edit icon after opening a chest (see example). This will show a form where you can...

  • set the chest name;
  • set a category (which defaults to its location);
  • set the sort order in the chest list;
  • or hide the chest from the chest list.

Point at a chest in the world to see its name in a tooltip.

Open the shipping bin to view the items in the shipping bin. This lets you retrieve items before they're shipped overnight. (You can ship any number of items, but only the first 36 will be visible in the UI.)

Configure

The mod creates a config.json file in its mod folder the first time you run it. You can open that file in a text editor to configure the mod.

These are the available settings:

setting what it affects
Range

Default Unlimited. The range at which chests are accessible. The possible options are...

  • Unlimited: all chests.

  • CurrentWorldArea: chests in the current world area, based on these areas: beach, bus stop, desert, farm, forest, mine, mountain, railroads, town, witch swamp.

  • CurrentLocation: chests in the current location.

  • None: can't remotely access any chest.

Controls

The configured controller, keyboard, and mouse buttons (see key bindings). The default button bindings are...

action keyboard controller
toggle chest UI B none
switch chest Left, Right
or LeftControl + scroll mouse wheel
LeftShoulder, RightShoulder
switch category Up, Down
or LeftAlt + scroll mouse wheel
LeftTrigger, RightTrigger

You can separate bindings with commas (like B, LeftShoulder for either one), and set multi-key bindings with plus signs (like LeftShift + B).

ShowHoverTooltips

Default true. Whether to show the chest name in a tooltip when you point at a chest.

EnableShippingBin

Default true. Whether to allow access to the shipping bin through Chests Anywhere.

DisableInLocations

The locations in which to disable remote chest lookups. You can use the Debug Mode mod to see the name of any in-game location, or get the location name for a chest from its edit screen. You can use "UndergroundMine" to match any level of the mines or skull caverns (except the entrance itself).

Compatibility

Chests Anywhere is compatible with Stardew Valley 1.4+ on Linux/Mac/Windows, both single-player and multiplayer.

Multiplayer notes:

  • There's no problem with some players not having the mod.
  • If you're not the main player, you can only access chests in your current location. (This is due to limitations in how the game syncs data.)
