Anvil Swapper

by Mike

Anvil Swapper puts a button on the anvil screen that swaps the items in an anvil when the result would cost less experience.

FabricClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20 – 26.2

What it does

When an anvil combination would be cheaper in the opposite order, a green swap arrow appears so the player can exchange the two input items with one click. The arrow is shown only when the swap is recommended, and the cost shown follows Vanilla Minecraft calculations. Installing the mod requires Fabric API, and the environment is client-side only, so servers run without it. Builds cover 1.20 – 26.2 on Fabric, with 23 release versions and snapshot builds published.

Key features

  1. Swap button on the anvil

    A button in the anvil screen exchanges the two input items, which helps when the inventory is full.

  2. Green swap arrow

    A green arrow marks the swap as recommended when the reversed order is cheaper.

  3. Vanilla cost logic

    Costs are calculated with the same rules as Vanilla, so the recommendation matches what the anvil charges.

Questions

Does Anvil Swapper need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency and must be installed alongside the mod on Fabric.

Is Anvil Swapper needed on the server?

No. The mod is client-side only, so a server can run without it and players only need it installed locally.

What the author says

Anvil Swapper is a simple mod that adds a button to swap the items in an Anvil, no matter if the inventory is full or not it will swap the items. It will show a green swap arrow if the swap is recommended although this uses Vanilla Minecraft calculations thus it will only work on servers that use the Vanilla cost.
