Automatic Installation · Nord Inventory Only

Nord Crafting now includes an automatic installation path designed specifically for nord_inventory.

What this means

When your server uses Nord Inventory, the Crafting setup can use the automatic installer instead of asking the server owner to manually edit third-party inventory item files.

This is the recommended Nord Lab setup:

ensure nord_inventory
ensure nord_crafting

Scope

The automatic installer is not a universal inventory patcher.

It does not automatically install Crafting items into:

  • ox_inventory
  • qs-inventory
  • qb-inventory
  • ESX inventory item definitions

Those systems use the manual workflow described on the next page.

Verification after install

After first boot, verify the items required by your enabled modules exist in the active inventory registry.

The blueprint system requires:

blueprint

Portable benches use the configurable item:

Config.Portable.ItemName = 'craft_bench'

If you change ItemName, the inventory must contain the new name.

Why the limitation exists

Nord Inventory exposes a controlled Nord ecosystem integration path. Third-party inventories store and load item definitions differently, so Nord Crafting avoids rewriting their resource files automatically.

Support rule: If the server is not using nord_inventory, document the inventory setup as manual. This avoids telling customers that OX/QS/QB files will be modified automatically when they will not be.
