Magnetium
by whospeo
Players who spend long mining or farming sessions can use Magnetium, a Fabric mod that pulls dropped items toward the player within a set range.
What it does
Magnetium adds magnets as equipment that draws dropped items toward the player once they are inside a configurable range. Basic magnets cover a short distance, while the advanced versions reach farther. Magnets are crafted from iron, a north pole and a south pole at a crafting table, and the recipes are shown in an image on the mod page.
The mod also includes a Magnetic Hammer, a tool that destroys a 3x3 block area at a time and automatically collects the dropped items. Together these features reduce the manual pickup that follows intensive mining or farming. The mod is lightweight and configurable, so its range and behavior can be adjusted to suit each world.
Magnetium is published for Fabric only, with files covering 1.21.11 – 26.1.2 across four release versions. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source.

How it compares
Simply Magnets is available for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.21.1 – 26.2, with the client and server environment and the MIT License, but it is not open source. Magnet Command is server-side only, open source under the MIT License and covers Fabric files for 1.18.2 – 26.3, so players can join without installing it.
