Stealing and Sharing
Stealing and Sharing lets players take items from each other on a server, or hand food and armour over, through right-click actions.
What it does
Holding food and right-clicking another player transfers the food to them, and holding a piece of armour and right-clicking another player places that armour on them. Right-clicking another player with an empty hand removes their top armour piece first, while shift and right-click with an empty hand takes an item from the player's hand. The actions turn ordinary play into a way for friends to swap or steal gear.
The mod is server-side only, so only the server needs it and players join without installing anything. Fabric API is required. Its behaviour is set through gamerules under the namespace stealing-and-sharing. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, which makes the project open source. Fabric files are published for 26.2, with 0.2.1+26.2 as the latest build from 2026-06-24, covering game versions 1.21.11 – 26.2.
