PandaWorks AutoLoot
PandaWorks AutoLoot is a configurable quality-of-life looting framework for Starfield.
It reduces repetitive corpse checking, container opening, inventory cleanup, and manual salvage collection while still letting the player decide what gets looted and where it goes.
Instead of opening every corpse, crate, locker, storage box, asteroid deposit, and supported salvage source, PandaWorks AutoLoot scans nearby references, validates them, applies your enabled settings, and transfers matching loot to the selected destination.
The goal is simple:
Spend less time digging through containers and more time actually playing Starfield.
PandaWorks AutoLoot is the successor to Lazy Panda. Lazy Panda proved the concept worked. PandaWorks AutoLoot rebuilds that concept into a cleaner, modular, and far more configurable framework.
Features Automatically loots supported containers Automatically loots supported corpses Automatically loots supported loose objects and harvestables Loots asteroid deposits, space cargo, and debris from destroyed hostile ships Transfers space salvage directly to ship cargo Allows individual loot categories to be enabled or disabled Allows supported categories to use different destinations Supports Player Inventory, Ship Cargo, Lodge Safe, and PandaWorks Inventory Uses validation checks before processing references Supports selective corpse looting without relying on full Take All behavior Reduces repetitive inventory management and container checking Includes in-game configuration controls Supports optional add-ons for DLC and Creation content Gravitic Stowage Matrix
PandaWorks AutoLoot includes the Gravitic Stowage Matrix, an integrated carried-mass management system powered by the Chronomark Gravitic Edition.
Available profiles include:
25% Mass Reduction 50% Mass Reduction 75% Mass Reduction Weightless Disabled
Selecting a profile automatically adds, equips, and configures the Chronomark Gravitic Edition. Disabling the system removes it when a mission or gameplay sequence requires the player to deposit all carried equipment.
The Chronomark is visible on the player and functions as an actual piece of equipment rather than an invisible background effect.
Player-Controlled Looting
PandaWorks AutoLoot is built around player choice.
You decide:
which loot categories are enabled; which destinations are used; whether the system should be selective or aggressive; how carried mass is managed; which optional content add-ons are installed.
The mod provides the framework. Your settings determine how that framework behaves.
PandaWorks AutoLoot does not exist to remove exploration or eliminate looting from Starfield. It removes the repetitive cleanup that happens after fights, facility clears, ship boarding, scavenging, mining, and general exploration.
Who It Is For
PandaWorks AutoLoot is useful for players who:
loot everything manually and are tired of doing it; want automatic looting without surrendering category control; want loot routed to different storage destinations; want faster corpse and container cleanup; want automatic space salvage collection; want fewer interruptions while exploring; want a cleaner and more capable successor to Lazy Panda; would rather play the game than sort piles of space trash. Installation and Add-ons
The main plugin provides the core PandaWorks AutoLoot framework and supported base-game content.
Optional add-on plugins expand support for DLC and Creation content. Only install add-ons for content you actually own and have enabled.
The Achievement Friendly base version does not require DLC or paid Creations.
Configuration
Configuration is handled in-game through the PandaWorks AutoLoot terminal, utility device, and supported Gameplay Options.
The default setup is designed to work immediately, while still allowing deeper customization for players who want precise control over categories, destinations, utilities, and mass-management profiles.
Help and Support

PandaWorks AutoLoot is built for players who want Starfield to flow better.
Fight, explore, mine, loot, board ships, clear facilities, and move on without stopping every few seconds to manually vacuum containers like a sleep-deprived space janitor.
Loot smarter.
Let the panda handle the trash.
