Q-Inventory Randomizer
by Qwertious
Q-Inventory Randomizer periodically scrambles a player's inventory on a timer, with settings to change the interval, start and stop it, and turn the effect off.
What it does
Once the randomizer is switched on, the inventory is reset or shuffled after a set amount of time, which defaults to one minute. The timer can be started and stopped through configuration, and the delay between shuffles can be changed in seconds. A mode setting turns the randomizer aspect off entirely, leaving only the clearing behavior that empties the inventory after the chosen interval has passed.
The mod runs server-side only, so players join without installing anything and servers are the ones that need it. It requires Fabric API, and files are published for Fabric alone. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, and the latest file, 2.0.0 for 1.20.6, was released on 2025-06-03. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Timed inventory scrambling
After the configured delay, the contents of the inventory are shuffled or reset, so items move unpredictably.
Adjustable interval
The reset time is measured in seconds and can be changed in the configuration, with a default of one minute.
Warning before clearing
The mod usually warns the player about five seconds before the inventory is cleared or randomized.
Start and stop switches
Options named for starting and ending the randomizer let a server control when the effect runs.

How it compares
Block Randomizer is server-side only and published for Fabric 1.20.1, under the MIT License and not open source; it randomizes blocks rather than inventories. Effect Randomizer is open source under the MIT License, requires the server with an optional client, and covers 1.20.2 – 1.20.4 across Fabric, Forge and Quilt. Q-Inventory Randomizer differs in its focus on the inventory timer, its Fabric-only loader and its 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 range.
