Changelogs
Version 2.0.1
Now targeting Stardew Valley 1.6.10
Version 2.0.0
Added explicit support for Stardew 1.6
Added support for Big Chests (thanks to Zombifier!)
Added support for in-place chest upgrades preserving automatechest behaviour.
Version 1.1.0
Added Config and GMCM support to change what item turns chests into AutomatedChests, defaults to hopper still.
A small mod which requires spending hoppers to allow a chest to participate in an Automate machine group.
Currently the process of using this mod is interacting with chests while holding a hopper, and that will turn it into an automated chest.
When you want to turn it back to a regular chest and be refunded the hopper, simply interact with the chest again with an empty hand. Feel free to change the colour of the chest, it simply visual feedback and is not used for tracking the chest.
As of 1.1.0 I expose a config option now to change it from hopper to any other object or bigcraftable. Untested behavior what happens in multiplayer if the config is different between players, I recommend keeping it the same.
A known issue is that the ChestsAnywhere configuration is always present even when the chest isn't capable of being in a machine group.
