[LEGACY] InvMove (Fabric)

by PieKing1215

InvMove lets players walk, jump and sprint while a container or crafting screen is open, a client-side change first made for Fabric in 2021.

FabricClient-side onlyGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.16.3 – 1.18.1

What it does

Inside an inventory screen, InvMove keeps movement keys active so the player can keep walking around the world. Sneaking, jumping and dismounting from a mount can each be allowed separately, and sneaking is off by default because it can clash with shift-clicking items. The inventory background stays clear instead of darkening, and the game does not pause while a screen is open.

The mod is published for Fabric only, across seven release versions 1.16.3 – 1.18.1, and the latest file, 1.18-0.1.1 for 1.18.1, was uploaded on 2022-01-03 to the beta channel. Its source code and issue tracker are public. The mod has no required dependencies.

Key features

  1. Movement inside screens

    Walking, jumping, sprinting and similar keys keep working while an inventory or container screen is open.

  2. Per-screen options

    Sneaking, jumping and dismounting can be toggled on or off separately, and each inventory category can be enabled or disabled.

  3. Text fields pause movement

    When a text field such as a search bar or anvil name box has focus, movement keys stop so typing is not interrupted.

  4. In-game config menu

    Settings open from the mod list through Mod Menu, and the menu includes a debug display that shows overlay information for compatibility problems.

Use cases

Anti-cheat servers

Because the mod is client-side, its movement changes can still be flagged on servers that run anti-cheat, so players should check a server's rules before joining.

Who it’s for: Players who want to keep moving while managing inventory, and modpack builders who need a movement option for inventory screens on Fabric for 1.16.3 – 1.18.1.

Questions

Does InvMove need to be installed on the server?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Which game versions have InvMove files?

Files exist for 1.16.3, 1.16.4, 1.16.5, 1.17, 1.17.1, 1.18 and 1.18.1. The latest file is 1.18-0.1.1 for 1.18.1.

Why is sneaking disabled by default?

Sneaking inside inventories is turned off by default because it can be distracting when shift-clicking items, but it can be enabled in the config menu.

Is there a Forge version of InvMove?

Only Fabric is listed for this mod. Its author notes say a Forge version works the same way, but no Forge files are published here.
