Create: Shuffle Filter Fabric
by tchris15
Create: Shuffle Filter Fabric is a Fabric port of a filter for the Create mod that picks items at random from a Deployer's inventory.
What it does
The mod is an unofficial Fabric 1.20.1 fork of the Shuffle Filter idea for Create, first built for NeoForge by another developer. Its author describes it as a port written by someone new to modding, who re-implemented the concept to get the function on Fabric. It requires Create Fabric, and the server and every player need it, since the environment is client and server.
The filter has two modes. In Weighted Mode, the chance that an item is placed depends on how many of it sit in the Deployer's inventory, so kinds held in larger stacks come out more often. In Equal Mode, every item kind has the same chance regardless of quantity. Outside the Deployer, a Shuffle Filter behaves like a regular list filter in mechanical crafters and funnels. Weighted Mode respects NBT data, while Equal Mode ignores it. The code is under the MIT License and is open source.
Key features
Weighted Mode
Items are placed with a probability based on their stack quantity inside the Deployer's inventory.
Equal Mode
Each item kind gets the same chance of placement, no matter how many the inventory holds.
NBT handling
Weighted Mode distinguishes items by NBT data, while Equal Mode treats matching items as one kind.
Regular filter elsewhere
In mechanical crafters and funnels the Shuffle Filter acts as an ordinary list filter.

Use cases
Randomized Deployer output

Even mixed supplies
Equal Mode spreads placement evenly across item kinds when quantities differ widely.
Who it’s for: Create players on Fabric 1.20.1 who want randomized Deployer placement, and server owners who run Create Fabric and want the filter available to all players.

What the author says
Note: This mod is based on the excellent idea and concept of the Create Shuffle Filter mod by Agent772. The original mod was developed for Neoforge. I am not a professional mod developer—in fact, I'm quite new to modding—but I really wanted this functionality for my own Fabric playthrough. Therefore, I took the time…
