Navigation/item tips

[Onionfighter]

Navigation: The middle mouse button
As you walk around, you may notice that your character is not perfectly centered at all times. You can have a degree of control over your viewing space by using the middle mouse button. Clicking the middle mouse button will move the view in the direction of the click, holding down the middle mouse button will drag the viewing space.

Inventory: The shift key
If you need to move a large number of items from one inventory to another, you can speed this up by using the shift key: If there are only two inventories open, by left clicking with the mouse while holding down the shift key, the object will move automatically to the other inventory.

Fuel/planting: The shift key
If you need to fuel a kiln, furnace or other building, the task can be sped up by using the shift key: by left clicking on the fuel, then right clicking on the fuel recipient while holding the shift button, you do not have to get another piece of the same fuel, just continue clicking with the right mouse button, once for every piece of fuel. This also works with planting.

Dropping items: The Ctrl key
To quickly drop an inventory item, hold down the ctrl key while clicking on an inventory item.

Inventory: shift + scroll / shift + ctrl + scroll
To move multiple items between inventories, move the mouse cursor into an inventory (you should only have two open), hold down shift, and use the mouse scroll button to move multiple items. Additionally, holding down ctrl will move items based on their quality.

If anyone knows of any other shortcuts I would greatly appreciate hearing them.

Does this fueling magic work for ovens? Or just smelters?

I am pretty sure it works on everything that requires fuel, including cauldrons. You could always try for yourself.

I was wondering if there was an easier way to move stuff around. Glad I decided to look at some old posts. I had a feeling there was a way, but whenever I thought of trying it I was usually sorting stuff I didnt want to experiment with.

there used to be, and could still be, different camera options, like follow, follow in steps, follow but a bit in front of you... they had fancier names, but i'm pretty sure there were some options

I'm pretty sure they're still there? :/

Shift + Mouse scroll to move items.

the same shortcut (shift+right clicking) applies to adding fodder to chicken coops and fodder troughs. just keep in mind that the shortcut will also use some vegetables (see wiki for details)
