Description:

Client-side Lua Script to add an UI to containers which has sort functionality.

There are 5 buttons in total:

1. Sort by Alphabet, sort every item in the container by alphabetical order
2. Sort by Category
3. Merge Stacks, if possible, merge identical items together.
4. Toggle Recursive Sort: If an item inside this container is a container itself, and this option is on, then the inside of that item and containers deeper inside will all be sorted.
5. Toggle TreatContainersAsTheirFirstItem: If this option is on, all items in this container that are containers themselves will be viewed by the sorting algorithm as its first item. i.e. A Storage Container filled with Iron will be sorted as if it’s an "Iron" item instead of "Storage Container", and a "Stun Baton" filled with a "Battery Cell" will be sorted as if it’s a Battery Cell.

There is also a search bar to search for items.
