This mod can be used to set or delete the filters of filterable inventories. The name of the item, its quality and the comparator are stored in the filter. If a filter is used as a template, it is copied. If an item is used as a template, the name of the item, its quality and the comparator selected by the player are used.

Sorting inventories and summarising the contents of the inventory slots is also possible.

The following inventories are supported:

• Cargo wagon
• Car
• Tank
• Spidertron
• Spidertron's trash slots (sort only)
• Player's inventory
• Player's trash slots (sort only)
• storage chests (sort only)
• logistic chests (sort only)

The following filter options are available:

• All: The filter of all slots in the inventory is set to the filter or content of the first slot or item at the player's cursor. Depending on the mod settings, the filter for occupied slots is not set or is set to the content.
• Right: The filter of the slot to the right of the slot under consideration is set to its filter or content.
• Down: The filter of the slot located below the slot under consideration is set to its filter or content.
• Set: The filters of the individual slots are set to the content of the slots. No filter is set for empty slots.
• Clear: All set filters of the inventory are deleted.

If the "Always keep player's main inventory sorted" setting is activated in the Factorio interface settings, the player's main inventory is automatically sorted by Factorio itself.
In god mode, the player has no trash slots. This is why the button for sorting trash slots is not displayed in god mode.

There aren’t any open issues.

When you find a problem, post it below and I will add it to the list of issues to be dealt with when possible. For more detailed discussions you can always send me a PM. As I’m not always online it may take a while till you get a response. I will consider the posts or issues I see, and do my best to work fixes into the mod, although I might not reply directly to every notice.

Regarding bugs, hopefully there will be few crashes and loading failures. I have solved all of these that I found by my local testing. Interaction with other mods is almost wholly untested.

A Note:
In making this mod, I tried my best to work with the base assets and my own custom code. But it is possible that I missed something like a copied placeholder. If you find something that should not be there, please tell me explaining what it is, and I will try to rectify the matter as soon as possible.
