Just tested it again and it still works. The only annoyance is that for some reason the number of items contained inside the container is not showing (giving the wrong impression that it may be empty, but it's not). I'll look into that, probably Patch 8 messed with something about UI.
As the description says, they work exactly the same as the base-game Camp Supplies Sack: while in your inventory, the moment a new item of the corresponding type enters your inventory it will automatically be moved into the appropriate container.
I really liked the mod, but I had a problem with mods after the patch and I uninstalled them all to see if it fixed it, and ALL MY ITEMS THAT WERE IN THE SMART CONTAINERS DISAPPEARED. I've already looked at the camp and it's not there. Please help me, what do I do?
There is nothing to be done about that, sadly. I think it's common sense that if you delete the container with your items inside of it by removing the mod, then the items will go along with it.
Your only option would be to install the mod again and load that save file so the containers don't disappear, take the items out of it, and then delete the mod. This mod nor any of my mods have problems with the newest Patch 8, so you can play with them safely anyway
Has anyone else reported that they can't access the items of another party member during a battle when these items are located in Smart Containers?
e.g. It's Astarion's turn but the potion I want to use is in Gale's inventory. I can't seem to open up the Smart Container from Gale to give to Astarion during a fight.
I haven't encountered this. When in combat, I can just select a character even during another's turn, open the container and send the potion to someone else if I want to as usual.
can confirm this behaviour without using any mods, but with vanilla containers. At least in my multiplayer game, I very often can not access containers from characters controlled by other players while in combat and it is not my own turn. So unfortunately a base game problem,,,
Hello! I want to thank you for creating this mod, it is very useful. In my opinion, there are not enough smart containers for gold, paints, armor (helmet, shell, gloves, boots, cloaks), jewelry, weapons (close and long-range).
This is an excellent mod. I really like to use the sorting containers in my camp chest. Items I send to camp don't sort in to these containers. I am wondering if there is some way that they could, even if it were an action that needed to be taken when I open the camp chest. A button or something perhaps? Right now, I end up having to have a character pick up each sorting container and put it back. The weapons and armor are heavy enough that I have to empty them first.
Either way, one of my absolute mod requirements. Thanks for your work!
That's strange, I haven't tested that particular use-case myself but I'm pretty sure it should work automatically too, as that exact behaviour you expect is what the Camp Supplies Sack container (from the base game) does even if placed into the Camp Chest, and this mod copies the exact same functionality from the Camp Supplies Sack to my containers, only changing the type of item they scan for. Maybe try taking the containers out and then put them inside again?
did Larian patched this feature out? One year ago I also had the "food pouch" in my camp chest and "send to camp" sorted all camp supplies into this bag. But now this does not work anymore (even without any mods)...
Thanks for creating this mod! I returned to the game after a year, and now the ingame mod system is quite handy.
I was using a similar mod, which is not available within the game. It allowed to make these special containers have zero weight. Is that something you're considering to add as well?
In the meantime I installed a mod that makes all of these items weightless, which also works.

This helps the mod reach more people.

Are you ok with people creating translations for it?
Thanks again for the mod!
