FPC - FixPlaceContainer
by Miha1ych
Players who place chests, furnaces or crafting tables while building often open them by accident, and FPC - FixPlaceContainer stops that when a block is placed.
What it does
FPC - FixPlaceContainer is a client-side Fabric mod that lets players place blocks with interactive behavior, such as containers and other interactive blocks, without opening them on placement. The fix targets a common building problem where the right click that places a block also activates the block's GUI. Players toggle the feature with the F8 key, and it starts disabled by default.
The mod is built as a quality-of-life tool in the same spirit as building helpers such as Tweakeroo, focusing on one narrow problem. It works on a Fabric client for 1.21.11 and needs no installation on the server, so multiplayer servers can run without it. Its license is the MIT License, and the code is not open source under a standard open repository model.
Key features
Placing without opening
Containers and other interactive blocks can be placed without their interface opening at the moment of placement.
Fewer accidental openings
Building sessions with many chests and crafting blocks are less likely to be interrupted by unintended screens.
F8 toggle
Pressing F8 switches the placement fix on or off during play, so players can return to normal behavior at any time.
Disabled by default
The feature starts turned off, so the fix only applies once a player chooses to enable it.
