PocketBox

The problem

Your players fill up two kilometres from base. Their options are to walk home, die on the way home, or leave it behind. On a high-pop server that walk is where most of the farming time goes, and on a low-pop server it is just tedium.

What PocketBox does

Look at a storage box you placed, run the link command, and that box is now your pocket box.

From then on, press the deposit button anywhere on the map and pick what goes: select individual slots, select all, or clear the selection and start again. The items land in the linked box. If the box is full you are told, and nothing is lost.

The button is a draggable UI element — put it where it does not cover your crosshair, and it stays there.

Kept fair on purpose

• Building privilege is required to link, by default. The box has to be inside your own cupboard, not someone else's base.
• Deposit limits per rank. pocketbox.use gets one limit, pocketbox.vip gets a higher one.
• A cooldown between deposits, configurable, or off.
• It can cost something. Scrap, any item, Economics currency or ServerRewards points — with an optional skin and display-name check if you want the cost to be a specific custom item.
• If the box is destroyed, the link breaks and the player is told. No silent void.
