found a bug/game play issue...... locked containers using padlocks are easily accesible with this mod....it's like accessing a password protected windows pc with a linux live boot usb......or like having a big gate but no wall in sight

No force select...
Not available for for build 42.9

Also, I'm getting a flickering effect. Where it shows the weight in the top right of the box. "Proximity Inv 0/65", the "0/65" part is flickering. Anyone else getting this or know a fix?

Is there a way to set a hotkey for toggling force selected in B41? I know I can do it in B42.

@璐璐宝贝 Just to let you know - I was having this problem, additionally including kills with melee weapons. I saw your comment and removed the mod, but it didn't fix the problem. What fixed it for me was disabling the ragdoll system; this mod has continued to work fine after that. Now, I don't know if ragdoll is also conflicting with another mod I have running, so I don't think this is necessarily a total solution to the problem, but it's worked so far.

Here's a polished translation with slight adjustments for clarity and natural flow:

"Use this mod with caution as it conflicts with the ragdoll system. When shooting zombies, their bodies cannot be searched and no loot drops. Only melee attacks yield loot. After hours of troubleshooting, disabling this mod resolved the issue."

This likely isnt a full fix but move everything in "workshop\content\108600\2847184718\mods\ProximityInventory\common" to "workshop\content\108600\2847184718\mods\ProximityInventory\42"
Afaik b42 is not supposed to have any files in the common folder dunno why or why it changed.
This has fixed a fair bit of the issues with me though, taking cigs out of packs for example and I was getting a ridiculous amount of lag driving around due to this mod and doing that also fixed that

b42.9.0 - your mod is breaking taking cigarettes out of packs, refilling propane torches from propane tanks, things like that...

It doesn't work, right? But it was today, 9/6/2025, and yesterday it was working for me.

Doesn't work currently in my B42

Make sure it's enabled in the mod options menu and that a hotkey is assigned. Mine wasn't working after the update. Works fine now.

does anyone know how to make it so it doesnt default to looting the floor? like say i kill a zombie and run over it then hover over the inventory, in vanilla it would show that zombie first because its closest ykno but for some reason with this mod it shows the proximity looting first and i have to switch over.

Same as some other users, the mod currently does not work for me in B42. I had installed it yesterday and during my play-time, that same day, it stopped functioning.

Need an update to 42.8.1 patch. Doesn't work currently.

The mod is no longer working, do you know what happened?

The mod works great. Just a suggestion: could you add an option to the mod menu to increase or decrease the proximity range? Thanks!

The mod right now in my server (Multiplayer) works to an extend i can see all the surrounding object and bodies ect but there is no global invteroy to see it all?

not stay on inv ;p

Ayy thank you. I was tripping bc my trunk was always too full somehow lmao

2 RollinStoned
If trunk is damaged it will lose capacity more and more. Try to repare it.

The mod works as intended despite people claiming otherwise, id like to ask if its possible though that the mod is causing my vehicle's trunk inventory capacity to fluctuate? Ive noticed on 3 diff play-through's that its happening & cant figure out why. Not getting any error's either 0.o

Currently, when I press the hotkey, the globe disappears.

When I press the hotkey again, the globe appears, but it is not fixed yet.

If you have fixed this issue, please let me know in the comments.

For those of you whom say this mod doesn't work. Check your settings/options and view the last tab labeled MODS, check and ensure that this mod is checked to be turned on. Fixed my issue.

For the people having issues with the right click to "toggle force select" you can set keybinds going to
OPTIONS > MODS > PROXIMITY INVENTORY

The default keybinds are Numpad 0 for "Force Toogle" and Numpad 1 for the simple toggle.

doesn't work in multiplayer

Can this work with two door vehicles that has my items on both seats? I am STUCK! Can't get in!

Yes 3rd6iX i found it just now, on my own :D
I hadnt seen this the last time i played, i should have checked before asking :D apologies

i'll save your guys life.....
ESC >> MODS >> ROLL AND FIND "PROXIMITY INVENTORY" >>

There'll be two options like "Toggle Proximity inventory" and "toggle force select" choose a bind like (INS / HOME PGDOWN) WHATEVER !!! for toogle force select... So press the bind you have used and voalahhh, the right click button that doesn't work was used by bind.

@Mxswat

Hey mate,

do you think you can add a setting to stop it from switching to the container i take stuff out or put stuff in, while in the poximity inventory slot?

@AnitaDick sounds like an issue with `clean UI` the right click is used by other vanilla zomboid code, so they must have changed something

If you're having trouble with this mod on B41 multiplayer, make sure the mod is enabled both in the Workshop section of the world settings and the Mods section of the world settings.

Enabling the mod in the Workshop section is supposed to also automatically enable it in the Mods section, but I found that for this mod in particular it doesn't for some reason.

Does it work with clean UI? no right right-click menu

right click doesn't work for me

안되니 더 아쉽네...

Mod doesn't work for me. There's no options in the options or sandbox, no keybind, nothing. It's like it doesn't exist after installing, but it 100% for sure installed. Updates haven't helped.

I just have to assume b42 isn't compatible anymore.

@Mxswat, replying to your question: "what is exactly broken?"

I just tested the mod with 130 mods active on the latest patch(42.7), i dont have any issues or bugs, as expected, since your last update and my last reply.

Cheers.

Sen varya sen, Kralsın

When I open the refrigerator, an orange outline appears around it and keeps flickering continuously, which is very annoying. Could you please advise on how to resolve this issue?I am using the B42 version

My number one request for this glorious mod is when using the prox inventory and dragging a bunch of stuff to my inventory, that after it completes the move it auto-switch back to the prox
inventory list again so I can find more loot to drag over right away.

My second, and only a nice-to-have feature would be the ability to swap what side the inventory icons lists are on (so mine would be on the right side, but the 'public' inventory icons that are around me be on the left side of the little window, would make dragging back and forth to inventory windows a little easier.

@Mxswat To what is broken, regarding the right click issue. In your last update you moved the lua files from /42/ to /common/. Steam didn't delete the outdated files in /42/ and as far as I understand, the files in the version specific folder have precedent over /common/, so PZ loaded the old files, which led to the right click menu not working at all.

Don't know if there's a way to mark files in the mod to be deleted, so if possible, I'd suggest that for the files in /42/, or continue using the /42/ folder for further updates instead of common.

One more bug for B 42.6.0

1.Have 2 or more of an item in your vicinity.
2. go to proximity inventory window and expand the selection of that item
3. Try to drag and drop loot the item. The item will flicker for a second but it will not stay selected or move with your cursor.

You can still loot it but there is no visual indication that what you are doing is working. Doing that to a single item or a stack of items in proximity inventory works correctly. Dragging a single item out of a stack in any other container works correctly.

I had just assumed it does not work and was constantly annoyed. I had not tried to complete the action because visually it was broken.

RIght Click no longer works

What exactly broken?

Hello, author. I would like a new feature: a blacklist for items. Items on the blacklist should not be displayed because there are too many things and it's hard for me to find the items I want.

If you have issues after the update, resubscribe to the mod. If it still doesn't work, delete the mod folder manually and then resubscribe.
For whatever reason files have been moved within the mod folder, which - at least in my case - led to the old files still being present and not overwritten or deleted.

P.S.S : This very 'temp' fix only works if it is in "Force Selected" mode

(it is stopped by transferring a min 1 item to/from but still it's a bit Pika stopping missiles for Porygon if ya get my drift)

please god fix this, this mod is a must have for literally any playthrough for the last 3 years. I BEG.

Sadly, whatever "Update" pz pushed out.
broke your stuff again..even on the newest update.

@Mxswat, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the unexpected and earlier update, working like a charm.

@Rocco, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the fix as well, while @Mxswat, wasnt available.

Cheers.
