## Description

### No Full Pickup[#](#md-no-full-pickup)

When you’re already carrying the maximum amount of an item, **No Full Pickup** leaves it where it is instead of letting you pick it up and immediately drop it again.

Especially useful alongside **Loot Respawn Control**, preventing blocked pickup attempts from marking world loot as collected.

#### Features[#](#md-features)

- Blocks pickups when you cannot carry another item of that type.
- Supports naturally placed loot and player-dropped items.
- Adds protection for shelves, arrow holders, explosive holders, and other storage using the same transfer system.
- Preserves **holding E to eat or use world items directly**, even when you’re full.
- Uses the game’s current item capacities.
- Includes optional item exceptions and an enable/disable setting.

#### Requirements[#](#md-requirements)

- **RedLoader** — developed against version **0.8.6**.
- Compatibility support included for **Loot Respawn Control 2.1.0** by **GLaD0S**.

#### Installation[#](#md-installation)

1. Close the game.
2. Extract the ZIP’s **Mods** folder into your game installation folder, beside `SonsOfTheForest.exe`.
3. Launch with RedLoader and check that **No Full Pickup** appears in the **MODS** tab.

When updating, overwrite the existing NoFullPickup files.

#### How to use[#](#md-how-to-use)

The mod is **enabled by default**.

- **Tap E:** collects the item if there is room. Otherwise, it stays in place.
- **Hold E:** performs the game’s available eat/use action on world items.
- **Take from storage:** blocked when you’re full of that item.
- Free up inventory space to collect items normally again.

#### Settings[#](#md-settings)

Available through the mod’s settings in the **MODS** tab:

- **Enable No Full Pickup:** toggle the mod.
- **Ignored item IDs:** exclude specific items using comma-, space-, or semicolon-separated IDs.
- **Log blocked pickups:** enable logging for troubleshooting.

#### Known issues and limitations[#](#md-known-issues-and-limitations)

- Pickup prompts may remain visible while collection is blocked.
- Multi-item pickups can still follow the game’s normal overflow behavior when you have some space remaining.
- Specialized storage and story interactions may use paths that are not covered.
- Storage support introduced in **0.1.3** needs further in-game testing. Multiplayer compatibility has not been verified.

For bug reports, include the item, storage type if relevant, and `\_RedLoader\\Latest.log`.
