Smart Chest Sorting & Filtering System

5 votes

I would like to propose a quality-of-life feature to streamline inventory management and reduce repetitive actions.

Feature overview:
- Allow players to assign specific items or categories to chests (storage filters)
- Add a “Quick Deposit” button and configurable hotkey to transfer matching items into the nearest opened chest
- Enable magical chests to automatically receive items based on assigned filters when players deposit selected items from their inventory (from anywhere within the base)

Gameplay benefits:
- Reduces repetitive inventory sorting, which does not add meaningful gameplay value
- Improves crafting flow by making resource locations more predictable when filters are used, reducing time spent searching for items
- Increases the value of magical chests, encouraging players to craft and use them more actively
- Synergizes with the existing crafting system, as more frequent use of magical chests makes their integration with crafting stations more impactful
- Preserves progression balance by keeping magical chests as a meaningful upgrade tied to exploration and resource gathering

P.S. I would be happy to provide additional details or discuss this feature further if needed.
