Laps' Belt
by lapryo
Laps' Belt adds a belt item that holds six stacks, so players can carry tools, bundles and lanterns without using hotbar space.
What it does
Items placed in the belt stay in it, and sneaking while pressing a number key from 1 to 6 swaps the selected belt slot with the matching inventory slot. Equipped items are shown directly on the player, so the belt contents are visible while moving. Removing the belt returns any stored items to the inventory, and if the inventory is full the items are dropped safely instead of being lost.
The mod targets exploration, mining and building sessions where the inventory fills quickly, and it works with tools, bundles, lanterns and other compatible items. Lanterns are suggested in place of torches. The belt is compatible with LambDynamicLights, so equipped light sources can illuminate the area around the player. Laps' Belt is published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 26.2, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Six-slot belt item
A new belt item holds up to six items that stay accessible without taking up hotbar slots.
Quick swap by number key
Sneaking and pressing keys 1 to 6 instantly exchanges the selected belt item with an inventory slot.
Visible equipped items
Items held in the belt are displayed on the player's body, so the current loadout can be seen at a glance.
Safe item return
Removing the belt sends stored items back to the inventory, and items that do not fit are dropped rather than deleted.
