CarbonFLTR
by Baldy
CarbonFLTR is a Fabric utility mod that stops the client from picking up dropped items the player does not want.
What it does
CarbonFLTR works as an item filter on the client. Items on the ground that match the filter are not collected when the player walks over them, which keeps unwanted stacks out of the inventory. Filters are edited with chat commands, one to add an item and one to remove it. Because the filter runs on the client, the server still handles pickup itself, so the behavior depends on the client alone. Cloth Config API is required, and Mod Menu is optional. Only the client needs the mod, and the server can run without it. The mod is published for Fabric 1.21 and 1.21.1, and the latest file is 1.0.1 for 1.21.1, released 2024-09-08.
Key features
Client-side item filter
Dropped items on the filter list are skipped when the player walks over them, so they stay on the ground.
Add filter command
A chat command adds an item to the filter list, and the list is kept between sessions.
Remove filter command
A second chat command removes an item from the filter list when the player wants it picked up again.
