Do I Have to Start a New Game?

No You don't! Just Enable "Respawnable Containers" in the Sandbox Options, then Right Click Any Backpack, Bag, ChestRig, Fanny Pack, Satchel and Select "Respawn". P.S Trunk Capacity Works in a Similar Way, Except You Need to Uninstall the Trunk first.


The Mod Isn't Working What do I do?

If it's a Server/Host Issue Click Here[theindiestone.com]

You're Going to Start with the Basics. Make Sure the Mod is Enabled Under the "Mods" Tab in the Main Menu.

If it's Enabled and Still not Working then Disable all Mods Except this One. Then Start a New Game and Spawn in a Bag by Either Putting -debug(Click Here[theindiestone.com]) in the Launch Parameters of the Game in Steam or Using Cheat Menu.

If that won't Work then Navigate to the Workshop Page. Close the Game if it's Open, and Unsubscribe from the Mod, then wait 1-2 Minutes before Resubscribing. Then Open the Game Again and Re-Enable the Mod. That Should Fix Most Issues.

If it Still isn't Working, then Unsubscribe, and Manually DELETE the Mod from Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\2719850086 and Resubscribe.


How do I get Higher Tiered Containers?

MAKE SURE "DOUBLE-SIZED TEXTURES" IS ENABLED

In the Sandbox Options, you'll find an option called "Tiered Storage Containers", this option controls what Capacity Craftable Containers will have. The Options Range from "Up to 100" - "Up to 10000". You have to Reload your save / Restart your Server for the Changes to Take Affect. The Recipes can be Found in the Crafting Menu under the Category "Containers". To Upgrade Containers, just Right Click the Item and see the Requirements listed by the Blacked out Option "Can't Upgrade Tier". To Rotate Containers just Right Click the Item and hover over "Rotate" and select the Direction you wish for it to Face.

Invisible Containers can be removed by disassembling them, or enabling "-debug" and pressing "Destroy" after right-clicking them


Can This Mod be Added to Modpacks?

To Quote co`

I'm Not Really Thrilled about the Idea of Having My Mod Shipped into Modpacks.

The Main Reasons are as Follow:

I do most of my development for free, so the only thing I have to show for it is the number of subscribers I have. Adding the mod to a modpack would essentially strip me off some of those subscribers.

I would have no control over whether the mod would be kept updated correctly. Meaning the modpack could be shipping an old (potentially buggy) version of the mod. Some people could complain or request support for an outdated version of the mod. That would only be extra work I'm not willing to provide.

Creating mods for PZ is already horribly difficult and time consuming, so I really want to avoid all the extra work that could potentially result from this.

I do Endorse adding my mod to a Workshop Collection.

Thank You for Your Understanding.


How Frequently Will the Mod be Updated?

I've Made a Commitment to PsychaChi to not Update the Mod more than Once a Day. This is because it's Stressful for Servers and leads to Smoother Playtimes for their Members. I'm stupid for neglecting that in the first place :/

For me, the mod on the host server works partially, the bags are spawned unchanged by the settings, and only the school backpack changes through the token. I started a clean server only with this mod.

Have you read The "The Mod Isn't Working What do I do?" In this FAQ? If you haven't then I'd highly recommend you do so first.

Should I be worried about load order? As in, should this be before or after other mods affected by it. For now I've assumed loading it last is the better choice but gotta ask just to be sure.
