What kind of MOD is this?
QuickStack appears to be a MOD that lets you quickly move items between your inventory and nearby storage boxes (containers). Its biggest feature is that you can do this without opening each box one by one. It’s designed for people who want to organize materials and junk all at once when they have multiple chests lined up at their base.
On top of that, it seems to include a feature for quickly locking inventory slots, making it easier to handle situations like “keep the tools and ammo I want to carry out instead of depositing them.” Its category is User Interface (controls and display), and the fact that it isn’t the type of MOD that changes game balance itself makes it easy to work with.
Main Features
- Quick Stack: Deposit the items you’re carrying into nearby boxes, consolidating them with the same items already inside (it generally behaves so that it only moves the types already present in the box).
- Quick Restock: Bulk-refill shortages into your inventory from the boxes.
- Slot Lock: Quickly lock the slots you want to keep.
- Operate without opening boxes: Makes organizing smooth when running multiple chests.
Installation Tips
Since it’s client-side, you basically install it on each player’s side. As a general procedure, it’s often just a matter of placing the distributed files into the Mods folder.
One thing to note: according to the description, you need to disable EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat). Since turning off EAC may prevent you from joining some online servers, it seems safest to use it in solo play, private servers, or servers that assume MODs. The version is 1.7.5 (updated 2026-06-27), which is relatively new, but be sure to check the supported game version and key bindings on the original page.
Recommended for these people
- People who line up tons of chests at their base and spend time on storage organization every single time
- People who want to save even a little time sorting materials after gathering and salvaging
- People playing in an environment where they can turn off EAC (solo or MOD-enabled servers)
Conversely, it’s worth keeping in mind that there’s a bit of a hurdle to installing it for people who mainly play on official or large servers with EAC enabled.

Quick idea 💡: Adding a mini GIF (or a before/after card) comparing the effort of chest organization “before installing / after installing” to the article would intuitively convey the time-saving effect.
