What it does

Six bag tiers are built to fit vanilla survival, with slot counts from 9 to 54 and rows from one to six. The tier layout mostly follows the classic IronChests pattern. Players advance through an upgrade progression to reach larger bags. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything, and Fabric API is required beside it.

Bags appear in the creative menu unless the Polymer client mod is installed, and the bags still work the same way without it. Players can also be given the bags through the creative mode commands. The code is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric across 9 release versions, 1.21 – 1.21.8.

Key features

  1. Six bag tiers

    Six bags with between one and six rows, holding 9 to 54 slots in total, for storing items in survival.

  2. Upgrade progression

    Bags are obtained in steps, so a larger bag is reached after the smaller tier has been crafted or found.

  3. Creative menu display

    Bags appear in the creative menu, and a client-side Polymer install changes how they look in the inventory.
