The Restock Agent is a feature in the Enhanced Client. A Restock Agent is similar to an Organizer agent but can be used to move only certain amounts of specified items from one container to another, whereas an organizer moves all of the specified items. Restock agents can be especially useful with crafting, if you need to keep moving a certain number of ingots, reagents, etc., from a storage container into your backpack. These agents are also handy for resource gathering, as you can move ingots or lumber from your backpack to a pack animal, leaving behind a few of each item to maintain the grid order you want for your resources and keep your pack tidy. As with organizers, different restock agents can have different destination containers. Restock agents can also have a spellbook as a destination container, allowing scribes to easily fill books.

To run a restock agent, left click on the small, green, double-headed arrow on a container. The restocker will run until it has completed moving each of the items, in the desired quantity, to the destination container. If no destination container has been set for that agent, a targeting cursor will appear, allowing you to choose which container the items will be moved to. Right click on the small, green, double-headed arrow on a container to select different restockers.

Press ESC and select Agents to start building a restocker.


Example Restock: Inscribe Elemental Summoning

Let's create a restock agent to fill our backpack with the reagents needed to create the four elemental summoning spells. Looking at our inscription crafting menu, we can see that 4 Blood Moss, 4 Mandrake Root, 4 Spider's Silk, and 1 Sulfurous Ash, will allow us to create 1 of each scroll. Assuming we use a crafting talisman and therefore have no material loss, each time we create a set of scrolls, we can push the restock agent once to grab enough reagents to do another set of scrolls. This saves us from having to constantly split and move reagent stacks by clicking and dragging.


To create a Restock Agent, push ESC and choose Agent Settings

On the Agents Settings window push the small "+" icon to the right of the dropdown menu to Add Restock.

On the Agents Settings window dropdown menu select the new restock (it won't have a name yet). To remove a restock, select the restock and click the "-" key.

On the Agents Settings window, with the new Restock selected, click rename to rename the Restock to something you like (I used Elementals in this example).

On the Agents Settings window dropdown menu select the newly renamed restocker (Elementals).

Click "Set Default Container" in the Agents Settings Window and target the container you wish to craft from (where the reagents will be moved to). The desired destination container should be open when selected as the default container, otherwise the client may not properly register the choice.

The Agents Settings window should now read "Un-Set Default Container", indicating there is a default container for this restock.

In the Agents Settings window click Add by Type, then target the items you wish to be restocked. As you target each item, a new window will open for you to input the amount of each item you would like the restocker to move. If you would like to remove an item from the restocker, click on the item in the list and a dialogue box will appear asking if you'd like to remove that item. When complete, our Elementals restocker will look like this:

Open your reagent container and right click the Restock Icon (the small, green, double headed arrow) to select your Elementals restocker.

Next, left click the Restock Icon to restock the specified reagents and quantities to the specified container.

Restock Agents can save a huge number of mouse clicks, drag and drops, and stack splitting.

If you're feeling ambitious, you can use the above directions and set up a Restock Agent to move 1 of each of the 64 magery scrolls. Do not set a default destination container for the agent. Right click on the Restock Icon on a container and select the agent. Then left click the Restock Icon on a container that has at least 1 of each scroll and a targeting cursor will appear. Target an empty spellbook and voilà, the spellbook will be filled with a single mouse click!

Enjoy!
