Mochila
by iamkaf
Mochila is a storage mod that adds a colorful, upgradable backpack, with an Ender Backpack variant and hotkey access for players who carry many items.
What it does
Players craft a backpack and open it from anywhere with a hotkey, which defaults to B, so it does not need to be placed in the world or equipped in a dedicated slot. Shift-right-clicking a backpack unloads its contents into a chest, barrel or similar container, and right-clicking a backpack placed against an item frame or sign works as expected. The author describes the mod as a colorful, upgradable backpack, and an Ender Backpack variant is part of the release history.
Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt files cover 1.21 – 26.3, and the latest builds, 6.2.1+26.3, were released on 2026-10-10. Quilt's latest file, 1.4.0+1.21.4, targets 1.21.4. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source.
Mochila requires Amber, Architectury API and Konfig. A config file lets server owners adjust the mod's behavior. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the author asks players to report bugs and request features there. Recipes can be viewed with EMI.
Key features
