Instant Auto Totem
by Itamio
Instant Auto Totem keeps a Totem of Undying in the offhand slot and refills it within one tick after one is used up, so a player is less likely to die in a single moment.
What it does
When a totem is consumed, the mod moves a replacement into the offhand slot within about 0.05 seconds, a single tick. Swapped items return to the inventory, and the totem keeps its place in the offhand while the feature is enabled. Health thresholds and delays can be adjusted so the replacement fits how a player handles danger.
The mod targets hardcore survival, PvP and dangerous adventure play, where losing a life to a missed totem is costly. It runs on the client only, so the server does not need it and players on any server can install it alone. Builds cover 1.12.2, 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.11 and 26.1.2, with files for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge; the latest Fabric and NeoForge builds target 26.1.2. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Instant totem replacement
A new totem enters the offhand within one tick of the old one being consumed, so the gap in protection is minimal.
Smart swapping
The item that was in the offhand before is returned to the inventory instead of being lost during the swap.
Always protected
The totem stays in the offhand while the feature is enabled, so the player does not need to re-equip it after each use.
Health thresholds and delays
Replacement can be tuned with health thresholds and delays to fit different combat and survival styles.
