How to Bulk-Move and Bulk-Drop Matching Items with Mouse Clicks

Quick-move every matching stack

Hold CTRL and left-click any item in a container or your inventory. Every stack of that same item type is moved at once, exactly like the vanilla SHIFT + double-click shortcut. This is the fastest way to consolidate a chest full of one resource into your inventory, or to push a full inventory of one item into a storage system.

Drop matching items instead of moving them

If you want the items gone rather than relocated, hold CTRL + ALT and left-click the item. All matching stacks are dropped into the world. Use this to clear junk fast, but be aware the drops land on the ground where you are standing.

Drop just the slot you clicked

Hold ALT and left-click a single slot to drop only that stack, matching the CTRL+Q behavior. This is handy when you want to toss one item without triggering a full inventory dump.

Combine with dragging

These clicks work alongside mouse dragging, so you can hold a modifier and sweep across slots for smooth bulk actions instead of clicking each slot individually. Practice the modifier combos on a chest you don't care about first, since ALT-click drops are easy to trigger by accident.
