OpenInventory
by R0STUS
OpenInventory lets a player open another player's inventory by right-clicking them nearby, on a Forge server for 1.12.2.
What it does
Right-clicking a nearby player opens that player's inventory on screen, so items can be viewed and moved without a separate command. Players must be within reach of each other for the action to work. The mod is built for multiplayer social play and server-side item checks.
OpenInventory runs on client and server, so both sides need it. The only published build is 1 for 1.12.2, released 2025-01-22, for Forge. The source code is public and the code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so it is open source.
Key features
Open another player's inventory
A right-click on a nearby player opens their inventory screen for the clicking player.
No command needed
The inventory opens directly from the world, without typing a command or using an item.
Proximity check
The action only works when the other player is close enough, so it cannot be used from across the map.
