Good day, ladies and gentlemen!
To be honest, I’m a bit of a hoarder. I collect a lot of stuff which (for my playstyle) often leads to some problems/inconveniences:
- Many items result in a lack of inventory space.
- Having -a lot- of items around your character seems to make problems with the crafting system, which can’t find all items, even if they are within reach!
- Another point, which let to this mod, was the lack of bundling larger quantities of the some item type.
So I designed this mod, which introduces a “medium sized” -whatever this means- cardboard box (reduces a number of items with overall 15-16 units of volume to 12) and a makeshift storage box (reduces 65-68 units of volume to 50). This two items can be filled via recipe with a lot of itemtypes. As every itemtype requires it’s own recipe, and I already included 303 recipes (236 for the cardboard box, 67 for the storage box), I didn’t make recipes for mixed box fillings. Unpacking is done via deconstruction of the filled item. Currently included are this recipes for filling the makeshift storage box…:

All recipes occure under “Others” -> “Others”.
This mod should be balanced, as the reduction in volume comes at the cost of increased weight. The cardboard box weighs 400g, the storage box 2000g.
Both boxes are folded if empty, in which case they require 4 (cardb. b.) resp. 17 (stor. b.) units of volume instead of 12 (cardb. b.) resp. 50 (stor. b.) units.
There’s a really, really rare chance of filled cardboard boxes spawning as loot. Also included is a warehouse variation, that has a rare chance to spawn as replacement for the already integrated warehouse, and may include one or two filled cardboard boxes.

------------------------- Considering recent changes in C:DDA & PKs rebalance -----
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!
Considering recent changes in Cataclysm:DDA, I changed affected parts in my mod.
Please feel free to post suggestions and bug reports!
I hope you enjoy this mod.
- Have fun -
