How to Sort Storage Rooms Faster Using Container Tooltips

Identifying Destination Chests Before Opening

Sorting loose inventory into a storage room often involves guessing which chest holds a particular category, leading to wasted time in container menus. You can streamline this process by verifying chest contents before interacting.

1. Hold the items in your player inventory that you wish to store away.

2. Walk along your storage room shelves and aim your crosshair at the front of each chest.

3. Check the tooltip that pops up to see what is already stored inside.

4. Verify whether the container already holds matching stacks or has empty space for your items.

Eliminating Unnecessary Menu Toggles

  • Avoid right-clicking chests that are completely full or hold unrelated materials.
  • Move your crosshair from chest to chest until the tooltip confirms you are facing the correct storage location.
  • Open only the matching chest, deposit your items, and close it. This cuts out repetitive opening and closing cycles across your entire storage facility.
