This is a mod to control/replace the way sorting is done in-game.

• Sort order is changed to follow the order defined in Auto-Sort.json. (Assuming the file doesn't exist in the first place.) (See Configuration)
• The online storage tab is auto-sorted by the same rules. (This is a virtual / aggregate view of the inventories you have. This doesn't change or move the actual items, just the display order.)
• Player inventory "Stack" button rearranges items, compressing/restacking and ordering by the sort rules.
• Online storage "Stack" rearranges items, compressing/restacking all the inventories connected to online storage. (Again, ordering by the sort rules.)
  • This also prioritizes storage containers over the drill storage, and fills the drill storage last, if there's not enough room in regular storage.
• Repair Packs are further sorted so the most damage one is listed first. This is because the game uses the first entry in your inventory when repairing.

Config

• The first time Volcanoids is run with this mod installed, it will create a file called Auto-Sort.json in %LOCALAPPDATA%Low\Volcanoid\Volcanoids\Mods.
• This file is a simple list of the items we resort, in the order they will sort in-game.
• The list entries contain both the assetId & a name. The name is for reference only. Re-arrange as needed.
• Use https://jsonlint.com/ to validate edits made to the file.
• If the syntax is wrong, or there's any issue loading the file, it will be ignored and a new default one will be created.

To customize the sort order, just rearrange the items in the list.
