</>What does Tidy Sweep (Auto-Shelve Items) do?
The bunker floor is buried in supplies, and finding a correct shelf for every last one takes a long time. Tidy Sweep gives you three buttons. Shelve Everything In My Hands sends whatever you're carrying to correct shelves, Sweep Items Near Me does the same for loose items and wrongly shelved ones within your Sweep Radius, and Sweep The Whole Bunker handles every one of them anywhere. Items stream onto their shelves a few at a time, with the same flight and placing sounds the game itself uses. It shelves the way a careful player would. Items only go onto right-category shelves they physically fit, shelves already holding that item are topped up first, and an empty shelf is picked by its real size, the one built for exactly that many copies, so one item type never takes another's shelf and whole types finish and pay out. You earn 10 Points per item type sorted, just as if you'd done it by hand, and the bunker door still opens once everything's sorted. Anything sitting on a wrong shelf is moved to a correct one first, which frees that shelf for what belongs there, and anything without a free correct shelf stays put, with a message naming what's left.
</>What is Tidy Sweep (Auto-Shelve Items)?
Tidy Sweep is a Bunker Tidy Up mod from ProjectMods that puts loose supplies away for you. Three buttons shelve what's in your hands, sort loose and wrongly shelved items within an adjustable radius, or tidy the whole bunker at once. Items only ever go onto right-category shelves they fit, each type gets the shelf sized for it so whole item types finish and pay out 10 Points each, and the bunker door still opens once everything's sorted.
</>Common questions about Tidy Sweep (Auto-Shelve Items)
What does Tidy Sweep do in Bunker Tidy Up?
Tidy Sweep puts loose items away for you, using three buttons in its ProjectMods options. Shelve Everything In My Hands sends every item you're carrying onto a correct shelf. Sweep Items Near Me does the same for every loose item on the floor within your Sweep Radius, which you set with a slider from 2 to 60 meters. Sweep The Whole Bunker handles every loose item anywhere, no matter how far away. Items stream onto their shelves a few at a time with the game's usual flight and placing sounds, so you can watch the place tidy itself. Each item lands on a right-category shelf it fits, and every item type that ends up fully sorted pays out Points exactly as if you'd shelved it by hand.
How does Tidy Sweep decide which shelf each item goes to?
It sticks to the same rules you'd follow by hand. First, an item only ever goes onto a shelf of the right category that it physically fits on, so nothing ends up crammed somewhere it doesn't belong. Second, shelves that already hold that item are filled first, keeping each type together instead of spreading it around the bunker. Third, when a type needs a new shelf, Tidy Sweep checks each empty shelf's real size and takes the one built for exactly that many copies, leaving shelves that suit other types for them. If another type is already sitting on a shelf that isn't its own while its own shelf stands empty, it is moved home first. The point is to finish whole item types: in Bunker Tidy Up, a type only counts as Sorted, and only pays out, when every copy sits on full, correct-category shelves.
Do items shelved by Tidy Sweep still earn Points and count toward opening the bunker door?
Yes - the game treats them exactly as if you'd shelved them yourself. Every item type that becomes Sorted pays out its usual 10 Points, ready to spend in the Shop on upgrades like Quick Step and Grabby Hands or abilities like Magnet. Sorting through Tidy Sweep also counts toward the ending: once everything in the bunker is sorted, the door opens just as it would if you'd placed every item by hand. Your progress sticks, too. The shelved items and the Points they earned are kept in your save the next time the game saves, whether to a save slot or the autosave, so nothing disappears if you later turn the mod off. A sweep simply does the placing for you.
Why did some items stay where they were after a sweep?
The usual reason is that there was no free correct shelf for the item: every right-category shelf it fits on was already full or holding a different item. Rather than forcing it somewhere wrong, Tidy Sweep leaves it where it is, and the message after the sweep names the item types it couldn't place and how many of each. Items on a wrong shelf are no longer a cause: Sweep Items Near Me and Sweep The Whole Bunker move them to a correct shelf first, which frees their spot for the type that belongs there. Also remember that Sweep Items Near Me only reaches as far as your Sweep Radius. If something is still left over, Clutter Radar's Highlight Wrong Shelves shows mistakes the sweep had nowhere to move.
How does Sweep Radius work, and when should I use Sweep The Whole Bunker instead?
Sweep Radius sets how far Sweep Items Near Me reaches from where you're standing, in meters. It starts at 8 and runs from a tight 2 up to 60, in steps of 1. A small radius is perfect when you want to clear one messy corner and keep sorting the rest by hand for the satisfaction of it; a large one clears much more in a single press, so it pays to stand in the middle of the mess first. Sweep The Whole Bunker ignores the radius entirely and puts away every loose item anywhere in the bunker. It suits the end of a long save, when the last few stragglers are spread across distant rooms, or any time you'd rather finish the remaining tidying in one go.

System Requirements
What features does Tidy Sweep (Auto-Shelve Items) include?
- Three buttons for three jobs: shelve what's in your hands, sweep the floor around you, or sweep every loose item in the bunker.
- Sweep Radius sets how far Sweep Items Near Me reaches, from a tight 2 meters out to 60.
- Uses only right-category shelves each item physically fits, topping up shelves that already hold it before opening the empty shelf sized for exactly that item, so no type takes another's shelf.
- Pays 10 Points for each item type it finishes sorting, exactly as by hand - and the bunker door still opens once everything's sorted.
- Moves items off wrong shelves onto correct ones, freeing those shelves, and names any item types that still had no free correct shelf.
Best For
- You've scooped up a big armful thanks to Grabby Hands and don't fancy a separate trip for each item - press Shelve Everything In My Hands and the whole lot flies to correct shelves.
- One room is still buried in loose supplies while the rest of the bunker looks tidy - stand in the middle, set Sweep Radius to around 10 meters and clear just that room.
- You're a few Points short of the next level of Autoloader or Compaction - a quick Sweep Items Near Me can finish off some item types and pay out 10 Points apiece.
- Hours into a save, the last stragglers are scattered in ones and twos across every room - Sweep The Whole Bunker gathers them all without a final lap of the place.
- You put a few items on the wrong shelf early on and now a whole type has nowhere to go - Sweep Items Near Me moves the strays to their own shelves and frees the spot.
