Shared Backpack
by 170yt
Shared Backpack gives players a backpack whose contents are kept on the server, a 54-slot double chest accessed with a bp command.
What it does
A player opens the shared backpack with the bp command, which gives access to a double chest with 54 slots. Access to the command requires permission, so server owners decide who can use it. The backpack contents are saved to a file in the world data folder, shared-backpack.dat, which is kept with the world files. Shared Backpack is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and it is open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.21.5 – 26.1.2 on Fabric.
