inom – Inventory mouse wheel
Just another MWSE-lua mod

– Features

Mouse Wheel
In the containers interface you can now use the mouse wheel to push or pull items between your inventory and the container without drag and drop.

Default scroll   - pushes or pulls whole stacks of items at the time.
Shift-scroll     - pushes or pulls 10 items at a time.
Ctrl-scroll      - pushes or pulls one item from a stack at a time. (great for managing alchemy resources)


Known issue

During the tutorial - when you have to pick up the ring from the barrel, if you use the mouse wheel - the script that unhides your magic menu does not run.
Just put the ring back, and pick it up again with the default drag and drop to solve the tutorial issue. Happy gaming!

Update: September 7th, 2021 -- This issue has been fixed by MWSE. Make sure your MWSE is updated since September 7th, 2021.

– Compatibility

This mod only adds functionality to the game, it doesn't change any existing functionality, so it should be compatible with everything.

– Background

I'd been wanting this kind of feature in Morrowind for ages. I finally decided to do something about it while playing a new character heavily invested in alchemy. Managing all those resources and chests became too tedious. I really wanted to make something that didn't change or remove existing functionality, so I could use it with anyone else's mod as well. The Morrowind Modding Community on discord were really helpful with getting me started with my very first mod. Both by showing me examples of their own code, and also by answering all my nubish questions. Thanks guys!

Future plans
I'm hoping to extend the mouse wheel feature to vendors too, as it would be great for buying arrows, bolts, or alchemical ingredients. Also I really like to have the same interface everywhere. It's a totally different ballgame when it comes to the programming however with how stacks of items for purchase are handled. Currently it can't be done within the scope of this mod. Crossing my fingers for some new functionality for controlling the barter menu interface in the not too far future. I won't consider this mod completely feature complete (v1.0.0) until I get the vendors working as well. But it's not critical, as you just click (not drag and drop) at the vendors anyways.

Thanks
Thanks to Bethesda Game Studios for making Morrowind, probably the most intricate RPG-sandbox ever.
Thanks to NullCascade for making MWSE-lua, a more civil way to script mods for Morrowind.
Thanks to Merlord, Greatness7, Petethegoat, Mort, and many many more from the Morrowind Modding Community for all your help, you guys are awesome.
