KJ's Inventory Generators
by kjmaster1
KJ's Inventory Generators lets players place generators inside their inventory, where they burn fuel and charge other items carried in the same inventory.
What it does
Thirteen generator types work entirely from the inventory screen: a player right-clicks an item to open its interface, places a fuel item in it, and the generator produces FE energy. Generated energy can charge other items held in the inventory, including items in Curios slots such as jetpacks. A generator can be switched between charging and non-charging modes by sneak-right-clicking it, and a key bound to change mode (M by default) cycles the setting while the generator is held.
The mod requires McJtyLib on both loaders. Curios API is optional and enables charging of items in Curios slots, while Just Enough Items (JEI) is optional for browsing recipes. Installed on a client and server, it is open source under the MIT License and is published for Forge and NeoForge with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, last updated 2025-04-27.

Charging mode toggle
