Belt Slot
by R1eq
Belt Slot gives players one dedicated utility slot for torches, totems, compasses, potions, spyglasses and other supported items, freeing the hotbar and offhand.
What it does
A single belt slot holds one of the supported utility items, such as a torch, totem, compass, potion or spyglass, so it stays within reach without taking up a hotbar or offhand position. The slot is meant to sit alongside vanilla inventory rather than replace it, and the mod does not turn the inventory into a full accessory system.
The belt contents are shown on a HUD display and rendered on the player model, so other players can see what is equipped. Server owners can configure which items are accepted, and modpack authors can add support through item tags. Behavior is decided by the server, so a client cannot place items the server does not allow.
Belt Slot requires Fabric API on Fabric. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge with 12 release versions covering 1.19.2 – 26.1.2, and its environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.
