Inventory Pause

by Yipeekiyaay

Inventory Pause stops the game from running while a player has an inventory, chest, shulker box or crafting table open.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1

What it does

Opening a player inventory, chest, shulker box or crafting table pauses the game, so time does not pass while the screen is up. The pause applies to single-player worlds. The mod is a port of an earlier version of the same idea, rebuilt for Minecraft 1.20.1, and it is published for Fabric only, in a single file for 1.20.1. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Pause on container screens

    Opening a chest, shulker box or crafting table halts the game clock while the screen stays open.

  2. Pause on inventory screen

    The player's own inventory also triggers the pause in single-player worlds.

  3. Single-player focus

    The pause only takes effect in single-player games, where a local world can freeze for the player.
