Item Split Bugfix
by y9
Item Split Bugfix fixes a stacking problem in which identical items stop merging because of leftover data on them.
What it does
Some items end up with empty tags that stop identical stacks from merging, which leaves inventories cluttered and inconsistent. This mod removes those empty tags so matching items stack again. It is server-side only, so only the server needs to run it. Builds cover 1.18.2 – 1.20.4 for Fabric and Quilt, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.
Key features
Empty tag removal
Empty tags that block stacking are removed from items, so matching stacks combine as expected.
Cleaner inventories
Players see consistent stacks in their inventories instead of duplicate entries that will not merge.
Configuration option
The mod has a configuration file that server owners can adjust to suit their modpack.
