Backpack Containers LL Patch

About This File

Description

This is a compatibility and QOL patch for Backpack Containers by BusinessGoose.

I originally made this patch for personal use as I play with a carry weight limited game and wanted a way to access my pack more easily and make the way the pack works more immersive when the player undresses (or is stripped). Since it seems to work well I thought I'd see if anyone else finds it useful.

Patch Features

For Players

Holding down the Left Alt key when using the drop backpack key will open the backpack after it is unequipped and equip it again when you close it's container menu. The backpack will not auto open if you are in combat or swimming.
When you (or anyone else!) unequips your body armor or clothing your backpack will also be unequipped and placed on the ground beside you.
Integration with Sexlab Survival - Your equipped backpack will be searched for contraband and items will be stolen from your backpacks if left unattended
Equipping a new backpack whilst your old one is on the ground will convert the "old" backpack into a static container
Returning to the old backpack and emptying it will place the old backpack item back in your inventory removing it from the world
Up to 10 "abandoned" backpacks are supported , if an 11th pack is abandoned the oldest "abandoned" backpack and it's contents will be deleted!
Your equipped backpack will drop to the ground if you enter bleedout - this feature can be toggled off in the MCM

For Modders

Added a lightweight dependency free method to access the items in an equipped backpack.

Spoiler

;NB Allow a few seconds on each game load to allow the mod to resync the backpack before running a check. Remember to check the Backpack state by reloading the StorageUtil FormValue each time you are going to do something with it or you may find your mod interacting with a backpack dumped miles away in the wilderness!

ObjectReference Backpack = StorageUtil.GetFormValue(PlayerRef, "_BC_Backpack_Container") as ObjectReference
   If Backpack
       ;Backpack is equipped and contains items - you can use the Backpack container objectreference as you would any other
   Else
       ;Backpack empty/not equipped or Mod is not installed
   EndIf
