Container Stacker Pro 1.0.5

Advanced, lightweight container stacking with support for multiple container families (small/large/medieval chests + vertical/horizontal barrels, including DLC variants). Smart matching, tiered limits by permission, obstruction checks, and vehicle support.

Features

• Multi-type stacking: Small chest, Large chest, Medieval large chest, Vertical barrels, Horizontal barrels — includes Bamboo/Wicker + Abyss DLC.
• Smart matching:
  • Strict mode = exact prefab only.
  • Category mode = mix within a family.
• Tiered limits by permission (default + VIP).
• Build privilege aware (optional).
• Obstruction checks (ceiling/occupant above).
• Vehicle-friendly (Tugboats supported).
• Skin controls (block listed IDs).

🕹 How It Works

1. Look at the container you want to stack on (within ~3m).
2. Hold the matching item in your hands.
3. Right-click (Alt-Fire) to place the next container.
4. Plugin checks authorization, matching rules, skin blocks, obstructions, and limits.

Supported shortnames:

box.wooden,
box.wooden.large,
medieval.box.wooden.large,
storage_barrel_b,
storage_barrel_c,
bamboo.barrel,
wicker.barrel (+ Abyss variants).
