How to Set Up Auto-Pickup and Overflow Voiding for Mining

Danks make ideal mining backpacks because they hold far more than standard 64-item stacks and can automatically collect, unify, and delete excess drops before they clutter your inventory.

Configuring Pickup and Void Rules

1. Make sure your dank is in Bag mode (no enchantment glow). If it is glowing, hold it and press the usetype keybind.

2. Right-click with the dank in hand to open its storage GUI.

3. Place at least one copy of every item you want to collect—such as cobblestone, dirt, or raw ores—into separate slots. Auto-pickup and auto-void only affect items that already have an existing stack inside the dank.

4. Use the built-in pickup button in the GUI to turn on auto-pickup, or enable auto-void as well. When auto-void is active, items are only deleted once their matching slot reaches maximum capacity (ranging from 256 items per slot in a Tier 1 Black dank up to 2,147,483,647 in a Tier 7 Rainbow dank).

Unifying Modded Drops and Sorting Safely

If your modpack generates multiple versions of the same resource, toggle the tag conversion button inside the dank GUI. Matching tagged items, such as different modded copper ingots, will automatically convert into a single unified type when stored.

To organize your loot, always click the built-in sort button inside the dank menu, which arranges stacks from largest to smallest. Never use external sorting mods like Inventory Tweaks on dank slots, as they cannot handle oversized stacks properly and may delete your items.
