Inventory Shuffle
by SametHope
Inventory Shuffle lets a server owner group players and shuffle their inventories between them on a schedule or on demand, as a Fabric mod for 1.21.4.
What it does
Inventory Shuffle works per player: each group member's inventory is swapped with another's, so items move between players rather than staying where they were. The shuffling is organized through groups, and group membership, options and state are kept in the world so they survive server restarts.
Server owners manage everything with commands that handle groups, membership, status and settings. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and it works on single-player integrated or LAN servers as well as dedicated servers. Its code is open source under the MIT License.
