Bottomless Pouch
by xMintTea
Bottomless Pouch is a Forge storage mod that reintroduces the Bottomless Pouch from Thaumic Tinkerer, with added automation and item-collection options.
What it does
The pouch holds a large number of items in a single slot. Each occupied slot counts as one stack regardless of how many items it contains, so one dirt in a slot uses 1/64 of that slot's space and the tooltip shows the items actually used against the total capacity. A pickup mode can route items that the player collects into a pouch when a matching entry already exists in it, and this keeps the rest of the inventory free. Drop handling runs on the backend, so loot and collection work without extra setup.
The mod is built for survival and modpack play, where the pouch replaces bulk chests for common materials. Which items it refuses is set by a datapack tag, and KubeJS tags can add further entries. Config changes do not override drop rates changed by other methods such as KubeJS or CraftTweaker. Files are published for Forge on 1.19.2, 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, with 1.1.0-1.20.1 for 1.20.1 as the latest file.
Key features
Single-slot bulk storage
Each occupied slot holds many items, and the tooltip reports used space against total capacity.
Intelligent item collection
Collected items that match an entry already in the pouch go straight into it, with a configurable pickup mode.
Configurable blacklist
A datapack tag lists items the pouch refuses, and KubeJS tags can add more entries.
Full-inventory bypass
Pickup into the pouch stays active when the player's inventory is full, with options that can be adjusted in config.
