Experience Container
by crystalx0375
Experience Container lets players store the experience points from a broken barrel or from a block placed for that purpose, and retrieve them later.
What it does
Experience Container is a Fabric utility that adds a storage barrel able to hold experience. A player right-clicks the barrel to deposit XP, and breaking it releases the stored points. The barrel tooltip shows the stored amount, and right-clicking reports the current experience level and added amount, so the total is visible without opening anything. The mod is aimed at a simple, vanilla-like way to manage experience rather than a large system.
The block can be crafted, and it keeps its contents when picked up with Silk Touch, so a player can move the barrel without losing its XP. Breaking it without Silk Touch drops the experience instead. Fabric API is required. The mod runs on Fabric for 1.21.1, with files published for seven release versions 1.20 – 1.21.1, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it.
The source code and issue tracker are public. The project is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.
