Chest Memory

Description
See what kind of items are inside a chest without reopening it.
Additionally, use console commands for various kinds of actions:

cs_searchchests("prefab",search radius, mark duration)
Makes your player search through chests and mark chests containing the "prefab".
Eg. cs_searchchests("goldnugget",65,10) Will look for a Gold Nugget in chests within an 65 unit radius and mark them for 10s.

cs_grabitems("prefab",search radius)
Makes your player go through chests and grab the item "prefab" out of them.
Eg. cs_grabitems("twigs") Will grab all twigs from nearby chests if the player's inventory has the space for it.

cs_searchchestsmemory("prefab", search radius, mark duration)
Mark chests containing "prefab" based on saved chest data.
Eg. cs_searchchestsmemory("cane") Will mark all chests that contain a Walking Cane in the saved chest data.

If a search radius isn't inputted, it defaults to 60 units(15 pitchfork tiles); If mark duration isn't inputted, it defaults to 20s.

Note: The console commands have to be executed locally or else they won't work.

Uses

The mod is quite simple, though it can be very helpful. A few examples of what you can use it for:
  • Quickly finding an item you're looking for
  • Seeing how a chest's contents have changed over time
  • Seeing what a chest has from a distance
  • Manual Sorting
  • As a similar replacement(This mod relies on client-side info, whereas the other mod gets info only when you're the host) for the popular mod Finder

I have a question. You think you can make a client mod that shows you Beefalo stats? As far as I know they are always the same so just adding values after each food item and removing value as time goes on (also adding domestication of course) sounds possible. I would do it myself but unfortunately I don't know how to make mods.

I'm not going to follow your directions. I'm going to navigate to the client_saves folder manually because I know where its secrets lie... My file is only 1,235 KB. You won the filesize competition :steamsad:

Anyways thanks for the workaround, but needing to manually go in there and delete the file periodically is just going to be really annoying so I'm keeping the mod disabled until someone goes on a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to wake the mod author up from his cryostasis and convinces him to put out a better fix for it.

I believe this same issue was causing me to have considerably longer loading screens when leaving the caves, loading screens during which I could be killed by monsters without having a chance to do anything; I got licked to death by frogs from a frog rain once, loading in with 10 health left and not having enough time to run away.

I did some brief testing, and it seems that the lagspikes only occur on the surface, and not in the caves. I saw that there's a separate file below the massive one called "workshop-2188383679-_caves", suggesting that there's one list for chests on the surface and one for the caves, with the one for the caves naturally being much smaller since people don't often build chests in caves; for me the file has a size of only 37 KB.

Presumably you'll have to periodically delete both files to "reset" the dawn lagspike back to vanilla levels, with the non-cave file naturally needing to be deleted much more often.

I found a fix for the lagspike issue:

1. Start DST.
2. Click the "Data" button in the main menu.
3. Open the folder called "client_save".
4. Find and delete the file called "workshop-2188383679-".

It'll presumably have an extremely large file size; mine had a size of 1,279 KB.

Note that deleting this file will presumably delete all your chest memory in every server, but that's a small price to pay for making daybreak incredibly smooth.

My assumption is that the mod slowly builds up a list of every chest in every server you've ever played on, and sifts through that list every morning, causing a lag spike that slowly grows in size as you play DST, so the fix is to just delete that list to reset it; the mod'll create a new one with a size of 1 KB.

The mod resets chest memory when there's rain and chests get wet, or it's winter and snow changes chests' appearance. Can you fix that, please?

This mod has made me stop playing the game for half a year because I thought my computer was fucked up and freezing my game for 20 seconds every time it transitioned from night into day, but my unparalleled genius intellect has deduced this mod to be the culprit. Please fix! This mod is the #1 best mod on the workshop! I'll pay you! I'll pay you in exposure! I'll tell one (1) of my friends that this mod is good!

I also stopped using because of what loopuleasa said
