Stack Calculator
by fu_gui
Stack Calculator is a Forge utility for working out item stack sizes, opened from a key press in the game.
What it does
Stack Calculator helps players work out how many items fit in a stack quickly. Pressing the C key in-game opens its calculator screen, and the same calculation is available through a command named stackcalc that takes a stack size as its argument. Ctrl+C, Shift+C and Alt+C key combinations are supported, and the default stack size can be set in the configuration file.
The mod is listed under Utility, with Optimization as a secondary category. Files exist for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, and the 1.0.0 file dated 2026-04-20 is the only release. It works on either side, and neither needs it. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source; public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker.
