Sure thing. First, lay out your stations like a grid—four columns, three rows. Put the most frequently used tools (pickaxe, axe, shovel) in the first row, left to right, because that’s where your feet naturally land when you’re sprinting in. In the second row, cluster your crafting materials (wood, stone, metal) so you don’t have to jump between the same two shelves over and over. The third row can hold your consumables—health potions, food, and the like—because those are the items you check in a hurry. Now, let’s back that up with the old patch notes from 2018. Back then, the game introduced the “Compact Storage” mechanic that allowed you to stack up to 32 items in a single slot. Use that to your advantage: keep the same type of item together to avoid wasting moves. And remember that the “Tool Upgrade” recipe was a bit of an oddity—if you’re trying to upgrade a pickaxe, you had to grind it with 5 stone shards, which seemed like a stretch but made sense once you looked at the balance sheet. So, keep a separate “Upgrade” bin right next to the tool row, and label it clearly—no one wants to accidentally drop a pickaxe in the food slot. If you want to stay organized, write a quick spreadsheet: column A for category, column B for slot number, column C for count. Then you can glance at the sheet and know exactly where everything is. It’s tedious at first, but once you get the system set, you’ll spend far less time searching. Final tip: test it out. Build a mock base, walk through it, and see where you pause or where items feel out of place. Adjust the layout until the flow feels natural. The best base is the one that lets you get from chopping wood to eating your meal without a single awkward shuffle.

I love the quick‑grab idea—just make sure it’s the exact size of a shovel or axe so you don’t end up with a misaligned slot. For the color‑coded label, I’d pick a contrasting hue like orange or lime, because the eyes catch those on the first glance, especially under low light. And remember to test the walk‑through with a full inventory; sometimes a single extra item can shift the whole flow. Once you’re happy with the layout, jot down a quick cheat sheet—one line per row—so you can rebuild the same system in a new base without retracing your steps. Keep those micro‑adjustments in check, and the station will stay buttery smooth. Good luck!

Glad the plan clicks. If you hit any hiccups—maybe the slot’s size or the label’s color—just let me know. I’ll tweak the template so it fits any future base without a second‑guess. Happy building!
