IOU Creative

Once the mod is installed, a player's inventory and equipment are stored separately for each game mode. Switching between creative and survival stores and restores the items automatically, so a chest labeled CREATIVE holds the creative inventory and one labeled SURVIVAL holds the non-creative inventory. Time spent in creative mode is recorded, so a player can start building again after switching back.

The mod is built as a hybrid of creative and survival play. Blocks placed and broken in creative mode are kept as a tally, and in survival mode the iouc pay command reduces that debt. Since version 0.0.2 the iouc pay-all command pays the whole balance at once. Multi-block items such as beds, doors and large plants are counted once, by their lower half. Entities such as boats and item frames and dropped items are tracked as well.

Installation requires only Fabric, and the mod is server-side only, so players need nothing on their side. Files are published for 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, and the latest file is 0.0.3 for 26.3 on the alpha channel. The code is open source under the MIT License.
