Pinata
by inqwizitor57
Pinata is a Fabric client-side mod that throws the whole inventory out of the player's hands with one key press, with optional visual effects on the dropped items.
What it does
A single key binding triggers a scatter drop that throws every item in the inventory, and the drop can be aimed at a short radius of three to four blocks or a tight circle of half a block to one block. Armor, the offhand and held items can be included or left out, and fireworks and blaze rods can be kept back. The visual effects are optional: thrown items can burn, glint as if enchanted, float above the ground where they land, or orbit the player in a ring whose height, radius, rotation and position can each be set. A stop key ends the animation early.
Pinata is built for minigames and map modes where clearing a player's inventory is part of play. Settings cover on-death throwing with a respawn button, and automatic throws when the last player or the last teammate remains in the tab list, which the author flags as beta and as able to harm players outside minigames. The mod needs Fabric API and Mod Menu, and it works alongside keepInventory. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Its files are published for Fabric on 1.21.1 only, with version 1.0.1 as the latest, dated 2026-04-05.
Key features
One-button inventory drop
A key binding throws the entire inventory out in one press, with the spread and scatter settings adjustable.
Visual effects on thrown items
Items can burn, glint like enchanted gear, float above the ground where they land, or circle the player in an orbit.
Orbit controls
Orbit height, radius, spin speed and position can be locked, so the ring stays fixed where the throw began.
Death and team triggers
Items can be thrown on death, with a respawn button, or automatically when the last player or teammate remains in the tab list.
