Improves (in my opinion) how shift clicking (or "Smart Item Moving") selects which container the item should move to

About Better Item Movement Priorities

Changes the way shift clicking items in your inventory works. By default Hytale prioritizes the backpack over the hotbar when shift clicking items from the primary / storage inventory. I found it very annoying that I couldn't quickly move e.g swords or other tools into my hotbar, so I decided to make this mod.

Priority Order

Details the priority of each inventory section when shift clicking an item from another section.
