Delete Worlds Hotkey

by tildejustin

Delete Worlds Hotkey lets a player remove a saved world from the World Selection list by pressing the Delete key.

FabricQuiltClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.14 – 1.21.4

What it does

Pressing Delete on a highlighted world in the World Selection list starts its removal, and the key works from the list without opening a separate menu. The search bar is unfocused when the list opens, so the key is read right away. The mod works with the list as it appears in each supported game version, 1.14 – 1.21.4, and runs on Fabric and Quilt. Only the client needs it, and the mod is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Delete key shortcut

    Pressing the Delete key on a selected world in the World Selection list removes that world.

  2. Confirmation skipped

    The usual confirmation pop-up is bypassed, so a world is deleted with one key press.

  3. Held-key deletion

    Holding the key down removes worlds in quick succession, which is slow but steady when a list holds hundreds of saves.

What the author says

Allows the user to press the Delete key in the World Selection list to delete a world. You may have to unfocus the search bar when first opening the list depending on the Minecraft version. It has been designed specifically to be able to hold down the button, but it can be pretty slow with >500 worlds or so. Bypasses…
