FFItemWeight
by Fyxe
FFItemWeight gives items a weight, so that carried stacks, containers and armor can slow a player down through five load levels.
What it does
Item weights are derived from the crafting recipes an item is built from, so most crafted items weigh roughly the sum of their ingredients. Containers such as shulker boxes and bundles count the items stored inside them, and the inventory, armor slots and offhand are totaled together.
Heavy Load slows movement and mining, Overloaded adds the weakness effect, and Immobile adds darkness as well. A HUD icon shows the current load and begins to shake when the player is struggling, and tooltips list each item's weight, with exact values shown while Shift is held. The mod is configurable in many ways, and Burden Bearing and Crushing Load enchantments raise or lower the carrying limit. Creative players are not affected by default.
FFItemWeight requires Fabric API on Fabric. The server and every player need the mod installed. Forge Config API Port is bundled inside the mod, so it needs no separate install. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across nine release versions, and the code is under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Recipe-based item weights
Crafted items take a weight from their ingredients, so the weight of a finished item follows its recipe.
Five load levels plus Immobile
Load moves through Light Load, Medium Load, Heavy Load and Overloaded, and Immobile is the last stage.
Container and inventory totals
Shulker boxes and bundles count their contents, and the inventory, armor and offhand add into one total.
Tooltips and HUD indicator
Tooltips show each item's weight, a HUD icon shows the current load, and Shift reveals exact values.
Configurable carrying limits
The Burden Bearing enchantment raises the limit and the Crushing Load curse lowers it, and many options are configurable.
Operator commands
Operators can use the ffitemweight command set to manage item weights.

Items have weight! Stuff your pockets with stone and gold and you'll feel it. Carry too much and you'll slow down, and a truly overloaded player can barely move. Want to see the mod in a pack it was designed for? Check it out in my version of Minecraft: Classic+
