Container Contents

Replica can remember what supported containers held the last time you opened them and display that snapshot directly in the world.

Remembered container contents

Recording contents

The feature is configured in Options -> Display settings under Container Content.

  • Record container contents remembers a supported container after you open it. It is enabled by default.
  • Show the content overlay allows recorded snapshots to be displayed. It is enabled by default.
  • Show the overlay while Alt is pressed provides a temporary peek mode.
  • Item icons in the preview controls how many icons are shown per row.

Recorded contents are remembered between sessions and update after the container has finished loading.

Supported containers currently include cupboards, chests, large and exquisite chests, metal cabinets, stone caskets, cheese racks, Jotun clams, and crates.

Viewing contents

Use the Toggle container contents keybinding to pin or unpin the overlay for the current session. Its default is Shift + C. If Alt peek mode is enabled, you can instead hold Alt whenever you need a temporary view.

Each recorded container displays a compact badge made from its remembered item icons. Point at the badge to see the last known contents, item counts and qualities, and how old the information is.

The display shows what the container held the last time you opened it; it is not a live view. Empty containers are remembered as empty. Recorded contents and manual markers follow supported containers when they are moved.

Searching containers

Container search

Xtensions -> Container Search opens a window that finds an item across every container around you, instead of asking you to look at each one in turn.

Type part of an item's name and press Enter. Each result row shows the item, how many of it that container held, its quality, how far away the container is in tiles and in which direction, and how old the snapshot is.

  • Results cover the containers in the area the game currently has loaded around you - which reaches further than the objects you can see on screen, so containers in the next room or behind a wall are included.
  • While Mark is ticked, a bobbing arrow appears over each matching container, visible through walls, so you can see where they are without leaving the window.
  • Click a result to ping that container, the same way a party ping works. This also works for containers that are too far away to be drawn.

The window searches what was recorded the last time somebody opened each container, so the same caution applies as to the overlay: it is a snapshot, not a live view, and the age on each row is there to tell you how much to trust it.

Manual container icons

Manual container icons

You can also label a supported container with a single item icon:

  1. Pick up an item whose icon you want to use.
  2. Hold Ctrl + Alt and right-click the container.
  3. To remove the marker, use Ctrl + Alt + Right Click again without an item on the cursor.

Recorded contents and manual icons are remembered on this computer.
