Stack & Reach

Bigger stacks. Craft from farther away.

Spend less time shuffling materials between your inventory and your chests. Stack & Reach increases item stack limits and lets crafting benches find materials in storage farther away, with three simple settings.

What it does

• Larger stacks: raises already stackable items to 999 by default.
• Wider crafting storage range: 32 blocks horizontally and 16 blocks vertically, compared with Hytale 0.7.2's default 14 and 6.
• Configurable: choose your own stack target and search radii.
• Keeps non-stackable items non-stackable.
• Preserves higher limits: an item already allowing more than the chosen target is left alone.
• Works with compatible modded Item assets as well as vanilla items.

This uses the game's existing storage search. It does not add chest slots, automatic sorting, automatic stack merging, remote chunk loading or extra player interaction reach. The maximum of 100 containers searched per bench is unchanged.

Installation

Requires Hytale 0.7.2.

Enable StackAndReach in the world's mod list if needed, then load the world.

For dedicated servers, put the JAR in the server's mods folder and restart. Joining players do not need to install the JAR. No other mods are required.

Configuration

After the first launch, edit config.properties in the plugin's data directory:

• Single-player: UserData/Saves/<world>/mods/Umisanji_StackAndReach/
• Dedicated server: mods/Umisanji_StackAndReach/

horizontalRadius=32
verticalRadius=16
maxStack=999

Stop the world/server before editing and restart to apply changes.

Accepted ranges: horizontal 1–128, vertical 1–64, stack 2–999999.

Larger search radii can increase server work.

Compatibility

This release supports 0.7.2 only, even if the hosting site's version selector groups it under 0.7. Later game versions require verification.

Avoid combining it with mods that override the same stack limits or crafting search radii. Compatibility with every mod is not guaranteed.

Before reducing stack limits or uninstalling: split oversized stacks so they fit the limits that will apply afterward. Existing stacks are not automatically split or merged.
