If running on a linux server, you need to rename the folder from "EFCL-WelcomeGifts_TheGiftsArchive" to lowercase to get it working and displaying the trader picture correctly.

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'user/mods/efcl-welcomegifts_thegiftsarchive/res/archive.jpg'

Everything else is working in 3.1.4

Problem - to few scavs. 5-6pmc to one scav.

Well, tune your spawn mod you´re using. SAIN does not spawn bots.

Disable the partsnmods in the config.jsonc. I actually dont know a way to workaround this issue.

Yes, if you try to build, modify or preset a weapon and have items stacked for this build you get this error message. If the item is unstacked, this message wont appear.

ViP3R_76 added a new version:

File

Item Stacking Plus 1.0.1

This version will only work for SPT 3.11.x

- NO need to update if you´re running 1.0.0 !
- DONT overwrite the configs if you´ve added own items to your likings!

Changes:
- Stims_Mode is now default visible in "config.jsonc" to avoid confusion on how to use/enable it
- Bitcoin is now default in "cash.jsonc"

As an idea, instead of using another custom trader, it would be nice to have a selectable option to use one or split vanilla trader(s) for the gifts. Some vanilla Traders dont have many quests, so it would not disturb the list itself.

Even adding it to an already existing custom trader (yes, we need to know the trader ID) could be an option to be used.

You need to update your server-mod of give-ui to the version you´re using. The executable GUI is newer then the installed version on your server.

Well, the error message should be self-explanatory. You need to enable the category you wish to use in config.jsonc.

FEATURE-LIST

• Category-Based Configuration: Modify items based on logical groups: Medical, Repairs, Stims, Barter, Clothing, Parts/Mods, Provisions, Cash, Others.
• Flexible Stacking & Resource Values:
  • Set custom stack sizes for most items (generally clamped [1-99] during application).
  • Set custom MaxHpResource for Medical items (minimum 1, stack size forced to 1).
  • Set custom MaxRepairResource for Repair items (minimum 1, stack size forced to 1).
  • Advanced Stimulator Handling (stims.jsonc & config.jsonc)
    • Choose a stims_mode ("Stacks", "Usage", or "Mixed") in config.jsonc.
    • "Stacks" Mode: Control stack size directly [1-50] using [ "ItemID", "X" ] format.
    • "Usage" Mode: Control usage count (via MaxHpResource) [1-50] using [ "ItemID", "X" ] format; stack forced to 1.
    • "Mixed" Mode: Configure stack size OR usage count per stim: [ "ItemID", "X" ] sets stack size [1-50]; [ "ItemID", "X/Y" ] sets uses to Y [1-50] and forces stack to 1.
  • Applies specific high stack limits for Currency items automatically.
• Smart Config Management:
  • Auto-Relocation: Moves items listed in the wrong category file to the correct one on server start (if both categories are enabled).
  • Deduplication: If an item ID exists in multiple enabled category files, only the entry from the highest priority category is used (Priority: Cash > Med > Repair > Stims > Parts > Barter > Clothing > Provisions > Others).
  • Auto-Creation & Population: Generates default config files (config.jsonc, blacklist.jsonc, all category files in config/items/) if they are missing on first startup. Populates Medical, Repairs, Stims, and Cash files with relevant default item entries.
• Blacklisting: Exclude specific items from all modifications using blacklist.jsonc. Keys and Keycards are automatically blacklisted by default.
• Watchdog (Optional): Automatically reload changed category config files (config/items/*.jsonc) while the server is running (disabled by default in config.jsonc). Requires server restart to toggle reliably.
• Debug Logging (Optional): Enable verbose logging for troubleshooting (disabled by default in config.jsonc). Warning: Can create very large log files quickly. Requires server restart.
• JSONC Support: All .jsonc config files allow comments (// or /* ... */) for notes and clarity.
• Graceful Error Handling: Handles most JSON syntax errors in category files by logging a clear error message pointing to the file and skipping that specific file, allowing the mod to load and process other valid configurations.

INSTALLATION

• as it is a server-mod, it only needs to be installed in the "user/mods" Folder
  

Configuration files are located in user/mods/vip3r76-ItemStackingPlus/config/.

1. Global Settings (config.jsonc)

This file enables/disables processing for entire item categories and controls mod behavior.

• Category Enables (medical, repairs, stims, etc.): Set to true to enable processing for that category's corresponding file in the config/items/ folder. Defaults to false for all categories. You must enable the categories you want to modify.
• stims_mode: (Only active if "stims": true) Defines how stimulator values are interpreted. Accepts "Stacks", "Usage", or "Mixed" (case-insensitive). Defaults to "Stacks". See header comments in the generated file for details on each mode.
• enableWatchdog: true enables automatic reloading of changed category files while the server runs. false disables it (default).
• enableDebugLogs: true enables verbose logging to console and logs/debug.log. Use only for troubleshooting. false disables it (default).

Refer to the detailed comments automatically generated within config.jsonc for full explanations.

2. Cateogry Settings (config/items/*.jsonc)

Files inside the config/items/ directory contain lists of items to modify for that specific category.

• Format: All files use a List array (except partsnmods.jsonc which also has an ignored ParentList). Each entry within the List must follow the format: [ "ItemID", "ValueString" ] (Note: Both the ItemID and the Value are enclosed in double quotes)
• ItemID: The item's template ID (_tpl), e.g., "5449016a4bdc2d6f028b456f". You can find these using tools like SPT Profile Editor or by exploring the item database.
• ValueString: The desired value as a string.
  • For most categories (Medical, Repairs, Barter, Clothing, PartsNMods, Provisions, Others, Cash), this string must represent a whole number equal to or greater than 1 (e.g., "50", "400", "1"). The mod applies category-specific clamping later (e.g., [1-99] for barter, [1-50] for stims stack, no max for medical HP).
  • For stims.jsonc only when stims_mode is "Mixed": ValueString can also be in the "X/Y" format (e.g., "1/3") to set usage count.
• JSONC Comments: You can use // or /* ... */ for comments. The mod adds // Item Name comments automatically when it creates/rewrites files.
• Commas: Remember standard JSON array syntax: add a comma , after each [ "ItemID", "ValueString" ] entry, except for the very last one in the List.

Refer to the detailed header comments automatically generated within each specific category .jsonc file for precise rules and examples

CHANGES CAN APPLIED IN REALTIME - BUT REQUIRE CLIENT RESTART !

• If "enableWatchdog": true is set in config.jsonc, the mod will monitor the config/items/ directory for file changes.
• When a change is detected in a file belonging to an enabled category, the mod attempts to reload that specific file.
• If the reload is successful and results in actual data changes (not just comments/formatting), the applyStackSizes process is run again.
• Note: Requires a server restart to enable/disable reliably. May cause minor server stutters during reloads on large configs.

Delay in watching config changes - this prevents mass changes flooding the server.

Later i will add a queueing system to handle this, but for now it is what it is.

WARNING! - No non-FIR/FIR Protection

What does that mean?

It means what it says - NO protection!

If you move a stackable item you configured in one of the category lists that is non-FIR with a FIR-item (or vice versa) -> it WILL be stacked.

If you use FIKA: While in-Raid, there is a small protection from FIKA itself that disallows such a stacking and produces an error-message in server-log.

NOTES - READ CAREFULLY!

- Hideout consumes full stack!

--> if you have a stack of 32 x SOAP, and hidehout needs 4 and you turn in... 32 SOAP are gone (BSG "Bug")

- Works fine with MERGE CONSUMABLES from Lacyway

- Works "partially" with FIKA (FIR to FIR stacking is possible while in-Raid, see non-FIR/FIR Protection Tab

Q: Any incompatible mods??

A: Everything that modifies the same stuff. Which you use, your choice

Q: Does it work with FIKA?

A: Short answer, Yes! - Long answer, it should not break anything, i hope...

Q: Why is the Kukri blacklisted?
A: It is a gimmick, it can´t be sold to flea or traders.

Q: Why can we loot Armbands?

A: I wanted to rip them from their cold arms after looking like a christmas tree after the fight!

Q: Is melee-looting really necessary? It destroys the economy!

A: Well, there are other things that destroy economy. Yeah, some melee´s have some worth...

Q: Can you add other things to this mod please?

A: Sure, if I see some useful points in it. I can take a look at it without promises.

Q: Why did you create this mod?

A: Well, mostly because i can self-maintain it on SPT Updates and do not have to wait. But mostly because i wanted one mod instead of 4+.
