Back Weapon Slot
by Kermir
Back Weapon Slot gives players a dedicated slot on the back for a weapon, built on the Curios API for Forge.
What it does
Players get a Back Weapon slot where a weapon can be stored and carried outside the main inventory. The slot is provided through Curios API, which must be installed next to the mod on Forge. Client and server both need the mod, so it is installed on the server and on every player's client. Files exist for 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, with the latest Forge build, 4.0.6-nc, targeting 1.20.1 and dated 2024-11-26. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source.
