loganbruce Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 So, I find it tedious taking all my crafting items out of storage when I want to make something, then having to put it all back. There are some good auto sorting mods available, but they don't do what I want. Is it possible to link a ring and book, so you toss the book in a container with all your crafting stuff, then when you put the ring on, all the stuff in the container with the book is available in your inventory. Take off the ring and the items from the container leave your inventory. More or less, putting stuff in the container with the book would just be a way of telling the script what types items to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathbymanga Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 um, why not just use console commands to make your carry weight an infinite amount? because that's effectively what you are asking for. a loop hole to be able to carry as much as you want, wherever, and not be slowed down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganbruce Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Well, the weight of the ring could be tied to the weight of items in the container, if it is a concern. I keep all my crafting stuff in a container near a forge. When I want to make something, I take the items out of the container, make what I need, then put everything I didn't use back in the container, so I'm not over weight. I was looking for a way of automating the process, to reduce the amount of 'r' and 'enter' needed. There are lots of autosort mods available, but what I was suggesting was a way of choosing to autosort into any container you wanted and to choose what got sorted into it.

lofgren Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 It's a good idea. I have an autosort mod but I like your concept a lot. I will investigate the feasability, but no promises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganbruce Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Wasn't looking for promises, just throwing out an idea. Good luck if you pursue it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Himeki Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 A suggestion for another way of doing this (for crafting). Act as if the chest is part of your inventory while crafting. Basically not pulling it into your inventory, but using the chest+inventory as component sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lofgren Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 So this is feasible but I would like to make it feel a bit more like a magical artifact than a simple utility mod. I am thinking of a book with, say, ten pages. You can tear a page out and put it in a container, then you read an incantation from the book (i.e. cast a spell) and everything in the container with the book page is summoned to your inventory. Cast the spell again and the items return to the container. I am actually considering making the spell a scroll that you tear out of the book. When all of the pages are used up the book disintegrates and you have to craft a new one. However that might just add needless tedium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganbruce Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 Sound good. Would allow using multiple containers. Would each page require a separate spell, or bring up a menu so you can select which page to load? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
