by pharos

Second Hotbar gives players a second set of hotbar slots that they can switch to quickly from the keyboard.

What it does

Players press a key to flip between two hotbars, which doubles the number of quick-access slots without opening the inventory. The mod is a Fabric client mod for 1.21.11, so only the player's client needs it, and a server can run without it. Its settings are available through Mod Menu, and the code is released under the MIT License, though it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Two quick hotbars

    A keypress swaps between the first hotbar and a second one, so more items stay within reach during play.

  2. Mod Menu settings

    Options for the switching behavior can be changed from the Mod Menu screen rather than by editing files.

  3. Fast switching

    Changing hotbars takes a single key press, with no menus or item selection needed.
