Auto Stack and Pick Up

Description
This mod gives you MANY settings for automatically stacking or picking up newly spawned and manually dropped stackable items. By 'automatically stacking' I mean that if an item is spawned (e.g., loot from monsters or workables, like trees) or it is manually dropped on the ground by the player, it looks for other stacks on the ground to merge with. All features can be enabled individually.

You can also individually enable that if the player is within range, they will automatically pick up ANY stackable item spawned near them. You can also set whether the player MUST have one of the item in their inventory already for the auto pickup to happen. Useful in order to avoid cluttering your inventory with useless things!

The mod can coincidentally improve FPS (or rather, performance) because it reduces the amount of separate items on the map. You can toggle whether everything spawned on the ground during world generation / load should be auto stacked with similar things close by, which should improve FPS for everyone on your server.

Credit: This mod was inspired by the mod AntiStun for DST, but was rewritten to add more features and options.

Settings Information
PLEASE NOTE: Many settings are TURNED OFF BY DEFAULT.
---== General Settings ==---
Puff On Stack: Toggle whether auto stacking is visualized by playing a smoke puff effect.

---== World Spawn Settings ==---
World Drop Auto Stack: Enable/disable automatically stacking items dropped by the world.
World Gen Auto Stack: Controls whether items being spawned / placed while generating or loading a world should auto stack. Turn this off to keep the aesthetics generated by the world generation algorithm, e.g., a random skeleton might have more than one stack of the same item among the items spread out around it.
World Auto Stack Range: The radius within which a newly spawned item will look for stacks to add itself to.
World Auto Stack In: Setting this to 'Existing' means that new drops are added to surrounding stacks. 'Newest' means surrounding stacks are added to the newest stack.
World Auto Stack Ash: Also auto stack newly spawned ash?
World Auto Stack Poop: Also auto stack newly spawned poop?
World Auto Stack Seeds: Also auto stack newly spawned seeds?

---== Manual Drop Settings ==---
Manual Drop Auto Stack: Enable/disable automatically stacking items dropped by players.
Manual Auto Stack Range: The range within which a manually dropped item looks for a stack to join. You can still have separate stacks on the ground close to each other, if you set this to a low value (e.g., 2 to 5).
Manual Auto Stack In: Setting this to 'Existing' means that manually dropped items are added to surrounding stacks. Setting it to 'Newest' means surrounding stacks are added to the manually dropped stack.
Manual Auto Stack Ash: Also auto stack manually dropped ash?
Manual Auto Stack Poop: Also auto stack manually dropped poop?
Manual Auto Stack Seeds: Also auto stack manually dropped seeds?

---== Auto Pickup Settings ==---
Auto Pickup Items: Enable/disable automatically picking up stackable items dropped by the world.
Auto Pickup Range: The range within which a dropped item looks for a player to get picked up by.
Require Existing Stack?: Whether the player must already have one of that item in their inventory or backpack, in order to automatically pick up an item. Reduces inventory clutter!
Manual Auto Stack Ash: Also auto pick up newly spawned ash?
Manual Auto Stack Poop: Also auto pick up newly spawned poop?
Manual Auto Stack Seeds: Also auto pick up newly spawned seeds?

Usage notes
a. Ignores small livestock and small creatures, like bees, moles, rabbits, spiders, etc., because they start living when dropped.
b. Ignores heavy, carryable objects, like glass/sand-spikes and -castles.
c. This is a server mod.
d. Does NOT require you to make a new world before working. Enabling/disabling this mod should NOT require a server restart.

@Aqua: Are you the server? This is a server mod, so the server must have it enabled.

I turned on auto pick up and it isn't doing anything? I enabled all the options

UPDATE:
- Loot dropping from cave quakes should no longer auto-stack or -pickup, until it is laying safely on the ground, so they don't stack into stacks that then might get destroyed by hitting the ground.

- Possibly also fixed a crash that could occur when slaying "mechanisms" in caves.

PLEASE let me know of ANY odd behavior you experience with the mod, as this is quite a drastic change in timings and the inner working of the mod!!!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend <3

@Liquid_Wesker: Thanks for the report <3 This has been reported quite a few times, and I just cannot replicate it. I can kill mechanisms with no problems.

If you would be so kind as to tell me your setup and summarize how you're getting to the point that it happens, it would be extremely helpful. I start a server with caves and my mod on with World Drop Auto Stack enabled, find a way down to the caves, warp to where the mechanisms are, and slay them. I get gears and other things, and no crashes.

If you have a Player.log file and a server log file that were generated from a session where it crashed, it would also be incredibly helpful in tracking this down.

It would help all the almost 300K players using the mod :D

I wish you a happy day <3

I managed to fix it. If in the World Drop Auto Stack parameter disable. then when killing the mechanisms, the gears that cause the game to crash start working correctly, honestly I don't know what this is connected with

Crash occurs when killing mechanisms

@存在証明 : Hi. I hope you mean that you had the same problem as dvd_d8 and was able to solve it by disabling the Wanda Keybinds Pro mod, or possibly the extremely hacky and sketchy "Don't Starve Alone" mod, which changes so many weird things in the game, that even I can't figure out what incompatibilities there might be in it.

If you are experiencing another problem with this mod specifically, I would LOVE to know more, so I can fix it or help you alleviate it.

Happy gaming <3
