If you don't look at the other mod's description page, you'll have no idea how the "sorting" works. So here's the full instructions:
Step 1 - Go to Chet in Goodsprings and buy an EXTRA DARK PENCIL Step 2 - Go to a collection of safe (non-restocking, non-respawning) containers you want to use Step 3 - Crouch down and open the one you want to use as a sorter, and select "Scribble Sorting Container." Step 4 - While crouching, open the container you want armor to be sorted into, and select "Scribble Armor Container." Step 5 - Repeat step 4 for other containers - Weapons, Ammo, Food, Drugs/Mags, Junk. Step 6 - Moving forward, crouch and open the "Sorting Container" and select "Dump." After a short wait, everything will more or less go to their respective containers.
So while this mod might be "TTW safe," you can't actually use the sorting feature until you make your way to Union Station in Columbus Circle and take the train to Nevada. And also don't expect people to "just know" the other mod has the instructions when "and sorting" is in the name of this one.
Love this mod. Very few houses seem to have built in auto sorters that actually work properly if you're using a significant number of mods that change equipment. This gives you a very user friendly way to make your own auto sorter out of any containers you want. The only improvement I'd like to see would be a way to tell dump it to only trigger on the sorting container but honestly, it doesn't bother me that much if I'm sneaking around in a combat area. If I know it's a safe area I just stand up to open stuff.
Dumpit would be so much better if it could be activated/deactivated with a hotkey or a token or something. Its pop-up gets really annoying when you sneak in enemy territory and want to check out crates and stuff. It's not worth it, since 99.9% of the times it pops up in a game you don't want it. So I had to disable it...
The pencils are OK, I can just leave them at home.

Make it so much easier.
Thanks to both of you.
