Average Backpacks
Average Backpacks adds five tiers of wearable storage, each crafted from the previous backpack and a stronger material, so players carry more items as they progress.
What it does
Each backpack tier sits on the one below it: the Leather Backpack is the basic version, and the Copper, Iron, Diamond and Emerald Backpacks each need the prior tier plus a more valuable material. Every step adds slots, so the largest inventory belongs to the Emerald Backpack. Backpacks are stackable, which keeps the extra storage from becoming unlimited.
The mod is built for survival play and does not give a large capacity jump at any single step. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Builds are published for Forge and NeoForge, covering 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 1.21.4, under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.
Key features
Five backpack tiers
Leather, Copper, Iron, Diamond and Emerald backpacks each provide a larger inventory than the tier before.
Crafting chain
Each higher tier requires the previous backpack plus a more valuable material, so progress is tied to resource gathering.
Stackable backpacks
Backpacks can be stacked, which prevents unlimited storage from being created by placing many of them.
Modest storage gains
Each tier adds a measured amount of space, built for survival gameplay rather than for quick access to large inventories.
