GVault
by will_bl
GVault adds ender-chest-style vault inventories to a Fabric server for 1.16.5, with a Gunpowder add-on for per-player access through commands.
What it does
GVault is a server-side mod that adds vault inventories modeled on the ender chest, so each player can keep items in a storage space that stays with them. The Gunpowder add-on adds per-player end-chest-style inventories that are opened with commands rather than a block. Only the server needs the mod: players join without installing anything, and the files are published for Fabric alone under the MIT License, which makes the code open source. Builds exist for 1.16.5 only, with 1.0.1 as the latest file.
Key features
Ender-chest-style vaults
Vault inventories work like the ender chest, giving each player storage that follows them between locations.
Command access
The Gunpowder add-on opens per-player vaults through commands, so no special block is needed to reach them.
Permission-based size
The gvault.group.special permission node grants 5 double-size vaults to the players who hold it.
