Demo Labels
Client + serverVersion 1.0Updated October 13, 2026
Name your storage. Look at a crate, barrel or chest, give it a label, and that name shows on the container for every player, right after its item name.
- Label any vanilla container: wooden crates, sea chests, barrels, ammo boxes, first aid kits, protector cases and more.
- Shows in the item's name, so Wooden Crate becomes Wooden Crate [Medical].
- Everyone sees it. Labels sync to every player.
- Survives restarts. Labels are saved on the server and stay with the container when it's moved.
Labelling a container
- Stand or crouch next to a container (within about 1.3 m) and look at it.
- Use Label Container. The Set Container Label window opens, showing the current label if it has one.
- Type a label and press OK or Enter.
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| OK (or Enter) | Saves the label |
| Clear | Removes the label |
| Cancel (or Esc) | Closes without changing anything |
Saving an empty box removes the label too.
Label rules
- Up to 24 characters.
- Square brackets
[]are removed, since the label is shown inside them. - Anyone can relabel or clear any container, not only the player who labelled it.
What can be labelled
Any container built on vanilla's container class, as long as it's on the ground or placed in the world:
- Wooden Crate, Sea Chest
- Barrels (all colours)
- Ammo Box, First Aid Kit, Small Protector Case, Plate Carrier Pouches
- Waterproof Bag, Scientific Briefcase, Teddy Bear, gift boxes
Tents, backpacks, clothing and the fixed world containers (fridges, trash cans) can't be labelled. A container in your hands or inside another container can't be labelled either: put it down first.
Keeping labels
- A label stays with its container through server restarts, and when the container is picked up and moved.
- When the container is destroyed or despawns, its label is deleted with it.
- Like any other item, a container despawns after a while if nobody's around. Place it within range of a Territory Flag to keep it.
Troubleshooting

| My label is cut short | Labels stop at 24 characters |
| Someone changed my label | Anyone can relabel any container |
