Stack Numbers

So a lot of people like myself hate those changes that they made to the game so many times where they added crap like carry weight & so on over the years. Well the great thing is we can still change the stack amounts which in this case is referred to as Stack Numbers. The max amount back then which I assume is still 30,000 is so much better than 6,000 do you not agree for things like stone, wood, fiber, and so on? You can even change it for blocks though some things are a little harder because instead of being found under the items.xml file they are instead found under the blocks.xml file & do not have a Stack Number value by default which means you have to add one. This can be rather confusing if you are not sure what the names of said blocks are even more so when they have changed them over the years. But its all good because there are so many things we can change that we are aware of!

So lets start with searching for the known values of numbers to make this easier in the future. I will do this to help you save time. DO NOT CHANGE 1 values to 30,000 by default as this might cause problems for some things in the game. Make sure you know what the items is with the value of 1 before changing it!

10
15
20
25
50
75
100
125
150
250
300
500
1000
1200
6000
10000
20000

After we have these numbers we need to open up in our text editor "Search & Replace" so that we can replace each number with "30000" making the new value of our stacks in the items.xml file 30,000 instead.

So in search type {"Stacknumber" value="#"} I used the {} instead of "" because the quotes are used in the value here. Then in the replace type {"Stacknumber" value="30000"}, but do not do it until you place the numbers in each time to replace the "#" value in the search spot.

Examples,

"Stacknumber" value="3" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="5" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="7" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="10" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="15" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="20" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="25" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="50" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="75" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="100" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="125" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="150" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="250" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="300" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="500" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="1000" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="1200" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="6000" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="10000" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"
"Stacknumber" value="20000" to "Stacknumber" value="30000"

You can just copy & paste each above if you want to make it easier also! In future updates this will save time though there may be new values so make sure to search to make sure.
