Features

Trader ledger

Automatically records every trader you open the Buy/Sell window of — their location, name, type, and full buy/sell lists (with prices and stock) as of your last visit. Stored per-world; revisiting a trader updates their entry in place.

• Map waypoints — a color-coded (by type) trader waypoint is dropped at each trader the first time you visit. .traders wp maps any not yet marked.
• In-game browser — open with Ctrl+K (rebindable). Search by name, type, or item; sort by type/name/recent; click [show on map] to open the world map centered on that trader.
• Chat — .traders lists everyone; .traders <text> shows full wares for matches.
• Export — .traders export writes a Markdown summary to the mod data folder.

Large storage containers

Bigger variants of the vanilla containers, each crafted from two of the base container in a shapeless grid recipe:

Block	Slots	Columns	Crafted from
Large Trunk	100	10	2× Trunk
Large Chest	45	9	2× Chest
Large Labeled Chest	45	9	2× Labeled Chest
Large Storage Vessel	35	7	2× Storage Vessel
Large Basket	21	7	2× Basket

They keep the vanilla appearance, footprint, and open/close sounds.

Inventory quality-of-life

• Ctrl + left-click on any slot in an inventory dialog dumps every non-empty slot of that inventory into the open container(s), using the engine's own shift-click transfer. No-op when only your bare player inventory is open.
• Sort button in the player inventory — server-authoritative sort of your worn-bag contents (consolidates partial stacks, orders by item).
• Trash button in the player inventory — destroys whatever stack is currently held on the mouse cursor.

Combat / loot

• Hostile creatures vanish 2 seconds after they die and drop their loot automatically — no knife-harvesting required. Applies to anything with the vanilla hostile spawn group (drifters, locusts, bells, shivers, bowtorn, and the hostile animals: wolves, bears, hyenas), plus modded mobs that use the same group. The drops are exactly what a full harvest would have yielded (scaled by the killer's animalLootDropRate for non-mechanical mobs); if you harvest the body yourself within the 2 seconds, nothing is duplicated.

Creative inventory

• The search box is auto-focused when the creative inventory opens, so you can start typing a search term immediately without clicking it first.
  • Note: while the search box is focused, the E key types into the search instead of closing the dialog — close with Escape or the X button.

Audio

• Silenced character voice sounds — both the player/seraph voices and the trader voice (the saxophone greeting heard when you approach or trade).

Settings panel

• Toggle features on or off in-game — press Ctrl+Shift+L (rebindable) or run .slconfig to open a settings window with a switch per feature: trader ledger, ctrl+click move-all, Sort/Trash buttons, creative search auto-focus, enemy fast-despawn, large containers, silenced voices, and the distance challenge. Choices are saved to ModConfig/seraphsledger/features.json.
  • A restart is required for changes to take effect — the features are wired up at load time (Harmony patches, hotkeys, event handlers, recipe/asset gating), so the window warns you of this.
  • Turning large containers off disables their crafting recipes; any large container already placed in your world keeps working. Turning silenced voices off restores the vanilla player and trader voice sounds.

Building & installing

Run ./deploy.sh — it cleans, builds (dotnet build -c Debug), zips the DLL + assets + modinfo.json, and drops SeraphsLedger.zip into the Vintage Story Mods/ folder.
