Quantity Satchels
by FBM
Quantity Satchels is a Forge storage mod for 1.12.2 that adds satchels which hold items by quantity rather than by inventory slot.
What it does
Each satchel takes up one slot but can hold up to 1728 items of a single kind, so a stack of many items does not need several slots. The mod is loosely inspired by the community game Space Station 13, though the satchels are a practical storage tool and not a game mechanic. Satchels come in specialized types: an ore satchel, a food satchel and a seed satchel, each suited to one category of items.
Installation covers the server and each player's game. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Only Forge 1.12.2 builds exist, with 0.0.1 as the latest file, published on 2023-07-06. Players should note that satchels cannot store enchanted or renamed items, nor items whose NBT data differs, because those are treated as separate kinds and cannot be combined into one satchel stack.
Key features
Quantity-based storage
A satchel stores up to 1728 of one item type in a single inventory slot, instead of spreading them across slots.
Specialized satchels
Ore, food and seed satchels are separate variants, so each one holds the category it was made for.
Transmutation recipes
Satchel variants are made by transmuting a base satchel with other items, adding a second way to obtain each type.
NBT restriction
Enchanted, renamed or otherwise tagged items are excluded, so each satchel holds only plain stacks of one kind.

Use cases
Bulk ore and resource storage
A player collecting large amounts of ore or raw materials can keep them in a few ore satchels instead of filling the inventory.
Food and seed organization
Food and seed satchels keep farming and cooking supplies grouped by category, leaving other slots free.
Who it’s for: Players on Forge 1.12.2 who run out of inventory space when collecting large stacks of common items, and server owners who want compact storage without adding a new loader.
