I just pushed a update which fixes the recent change that caused the errors.
There're also more mod options so you can now filter what items get nested, for example only loose backpacks in the pockets.

its cool that ı can put items in a bag that is also in a backpack but there is a bug (i think its a bug)
you can put like 10 bags on a backpack and fill them. even while the first backpacks limit is 40 you can o something like 200-300+ it can get worse if you use it accordingly there is no limit

for this to work:
Put empty bags on backpack
then put or take the items
if you want more value
Put empty bags on backpack
Put empty bags on those bags
then put your items
and so on

Hey Nikku, love the mod and it's a staple of every run i do. I was wondering if it's possible to make nested containers apply their weight reduction when they are inside other containers, or is there a hardcoded limitation from the game to block that ?

@Pena_FIN Yeah I know what you're talking about... maybe I will add a filter for those.
Will try to push a update this weekend
