DisableHotbarWrap
by Koi-MC
DisableHotbarWrap stops the hotbar selection from wrapping around when the mouse wheel reaches either end of the row.
What it does
When the scroll wheel moves past the first or ninth slot, the base game normally jumps to the opposite end of the hotbar. This Fabric mod turns that wrap-around off, so the selection stops at the edge instead. The change is a single behavior toggle that affects only hotbar scrolling and leaves the rest of the input handling alone.
Only the client needs the mod, so a server can run without it and players join without installing anything. It requires Fabric API, and Mod Menu is optional for opening its settings from inside the game. The mod is published for Fabric only, across 16 release versions 1.21.1 – 26.3, with 1.0+mc26.3 for 26.3 as the latest file. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, although its source code is publicly available.
Players who scroll through the hotbar often and prefer a fixed order can use it as a simple quality of life change. The base game already offers an accessibility option related to this area, and the mod is intended as a narrower alternative to it.
