What it does

Players select a specific item with the LEFT CTRL and LEFT ALT key combination, and matching items in item highlight containers are then marked on screen. The background colour of the highlight can be changed. Mod Menu and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) are required, and the mod is open source under the MIT License. It is a client-side only mod, so servers do not need it.

Key features

  1. Item selection

    A key combination picks one specific item to highlight, using LEFT CTRL and LEFT ALT together.

  2. Container highlights

    Matching items are marked inside storage containers, making it easier to find them in chests and similar blocks.

  3. Background colour

    The colour behind each highlight can be changed to suit the player's preference.
