This mod adds an MCM Menu item to let you select hotkeys for one click turn on and turn off the popular Auto Loot mod. Just install this mod, open MCM and pick your keys. You can use shift or alt or control plus the key to give plenty of choices that wont step on some existing hotkey.

Love that autoloot, great for keeping those lazy settlers supplied with raw materials, plus goodies for my crafting habit. But sometimes want to pause it for a while, and it gets tiresome to fire up the pipboy and load a holotape just to flip a single setting.

This mod lets you define a looting on and looting off hotkey (one key for each) that use the existing autoloot console command functions.

Once set up click the hotkey to activate or deactivate autoloot, you will get a brief confirmation message.

Mod consists only of the MCM menu code and a pair of 'bat' command txt files. Nothing else is required.

Install using your favorite mod manager,
Or if you want to do it manually, you probably already know what to do, consult the documentation for the Mod Configuration Manager for details.

Note that the bat command files Pause_Autoloot.txt and Resume_Autoloot.txt files must be placed in the game directory, the same directory your fallout4.exe resides. Mod Organizer 2 does this automatically, I am not sure if Vortex will get it right. Would appreciate it if a Vortex user tests this and posts the results in.. um.. Posts.

Installation
as above

Deinstallation
1 - Remove using mod manager, or manually remove the 6 files (including this readme)

The MCM team for their tool and documentation.
fireundubh for Autoloot, a great way to gather that precious salvage, and for the kindness to include command line toggle functions.
Urbano Antigo for pointing out how easy it is to include command files in a Mod. (BAT in MO2)
Bethesda-that-was, when they included the tools and encouraged free modding and extensions to their games.

Most of all, the community of modders, quick to aid and encourage and support even us lowly tweakers...
