Description

Container Peek

Container Peek lets you preview a container’s contents instantly when you aim at it—no need to open the full inventory screen first.

What It Does

Instead of stopping to open every crate, drawer, freezer, shelf, or cabinet just to check if it’s worth looting, you get a compact loot window that appears only when the game already considers that container interactable. The goal is simple: faster looting, less menu friction, and better flow.

Key Features

Feature	Description
Compact Loot Preview	Small loot window for containers in range
Fixed Header + Scrollable List	Table header stays fixed while items scroll
Category Icons	Native-style item category icons (toggleable)
Item Details Columns	Weight, condition, and value displayed
Mouse Wheel Selection	Scroll rows with mouse wheel
Quick Take Controls	F = take selected item, R = take all
Sorting	V cycles sorting by name, rarity, weight, value
Weapon-Aware Hiding	Panel hides while holding primary/secondary weapon
Shared Input Capture	Optional for controls overlapping game bindings
Rarity Colors	Optional rarity-colored item names
Rummaging Behavior	Rotating icon for slower first inspection (optional)
XP & Skills Compatibility	Optional hook for container XP/scavenger bonuses

Why Use It

The base loot loop forces you to fully open a container before deciding if it’s worth touching. Container Peek removes that dead time while staying close to the game’s interaction rules and visual style. It feels like a faster extension of the existing loot flow, not a separate overlay mod fighting the game.
