I thought it was only increasing the stack size in my inventory, but it increases it EVERYWHERE! That sucks.

If I remove the mod now, will I lose everything above the normal stack size?

Sorry, i guess reducing stack size will destroy anything above that limit if factorio isn't handling it itself(which i don't know), but of you load your savegame directly with another stack mod *it should* take over the original stacks, as long as the new stack mod increases the stack size enough.

Actually, if there is an inventory with oversized stacks the items will be kept, so you won't lose anything. However, all calculations will be based on the new stack size. Let's say you have a stack of 200 iron plates, and stack size has been reduced to 100. If you use right-click to pick up half a stack, you will take 50 iron plates, not 100, and if you try to put those 50 plates back you will end up with one (oversized) stack of 150 plates and a new stack of 50 plates.
A good mod deserves a good changelog. Here's a tutorial (WIP) about Factorio's way too strict changelog syntax!

Good to know that factorio handles this case. Rimworld would have lost the items.

Has anyone had this issue still with the Inventory size staying huge even after deleting this mod? I love the stack size feature but I research too many bags and now my inventory pane is ungodly big. I tried deleting the mod settings file, I am not sure what to do. Is there something I can edit to reduce it back down?
