Description

This mod gives each player a bottomless, per-player virtual inventory so you never run out of space: stackable items overflow into a persistent vault that survives reloads and is automatically refilled into your visible slots. The system periodically compacts and sorts your inventory, absorbs nearby dropped stackable items, and provides lightweight action-bar feedback as it moves items, so everything stays organized without commands or setup—just play. Items with custom per-stack data (named/enchanted items, tools with durability, potions, maps, books, etc.) are kept as normal stacks rather than flattened into the vault, preserving their special properties.

Bottomless Inventory

Quickstart

  1. Install the .mcaddon file — it applies a Behavior Pack and Resource Pack to your world automatically.
  2. Load your world and start playing normally. No commands, no crafting, no setup required.
  3. Fill your inventory as you normally would. When your visible slots are full, keep picking up stackable items — the mod silently stores the overflow in your personal vault.
  4. Watch the action bar at the bottom of your screen for status messages confirming items have been stored or sorted.

Overview

Bottomless Inventory removes the frustration of a full inventory by giving every player their own persistent, hidden vault. Ordinary stackable items — stone, wood, ore, food, arrows, and so on — flow seamlessly between your visible inventory and the vault without any player action. The vault survives world reloads, so nothing is ever lost. Special items (enchanted gear, named tools, potions, maps, written books, items with durability) are always kept as individual stacks in your normal inventory, preserving every unique property.

What It Adds

FeatureDescription
Per-player vaultA private, unlimited storage pool for stackable items, tied to each individual player.
Automatic overflowWhen visible slots are full, excess stackable items are pushed into the vault instead of being dropped or lost.
Auto-refillWhen a stack in your visible inventory runs low or empties, the mod pulls more of that item back from the vault to top it up.
Inventory compaction & sortingYour visible inventory is periodically tidied: partial stacks of the same item are merged and slots are reorganized.
Nearby item absorptionDropped stackable items lying on the ground near you are automatically picked up into the vault even when your visible inventory is full.
Action-bar feedbackA subtle status line shows how many items are stored in overflow and confirms when absorption or sorting has occurred — no chat spam.
Special-item protectionItems with unique per-stack data (enchantments, custom names, durability, potion effects, map data, book content) are never merged into the vault, keeping their properties intact.

How To Use

Playing normally is all that's required. The mod runs automatically in the background for every player in the world.

  • Mining or farming? Just keep going — the vault absorbs everything that won't fit in your visible slots.
  • Inventory already full? Walk near dropped items and they will be absorbed automatically.
  • Want to know your overflow total? Glance at the action bar. It periodically displays how many overflow items are safely stored.
  • Sorting? Happens on its own. Partial stacks are compacted and your inventory is tidied at regular intervals.

There are no menus, no keybinds, and no commands needed. The system is entirely hands-free.

Abilities And Mechanics

The Vault

The vault is an invisible per-player storage layer. It tracks every type of plain stackable item as a count rather than as physical slots, so it has no practical size limit. The vault is saved with the world and persists through reloads, server restarts, and player disconnections.

Overflow & Refill Loop

  1. You pick up a stackable item.
  2. If your visible inventory has room, the item goes there as normal.
  3. If your visible inventory is full, the extra amount is added to the vault and the action bar confirms the overflow.
  4. When a stack in your visible inventory empties (you used the last item), the mod checks the vault for more of that item and refills the slot automatically.

Item Absorption

While you move around, the mod scans the ground nearby for dropped stackable items. Eligible drops are pulled directly into the vault, bypassing the "inventory full" limitation entirely. The action bar briefly notes how many items were absorbed.

Special Item Handling

Items that carry unique data — enchanted tools, renamed items, items with remaining durability, potions, filled maps, written books — are treated as distinct stacks and stay in your normal inventory untouched. The vault only stores plain, interchangeable stackable items.

Progression And Strategy

  • Early game: Mine freely without pausing to sort or dump your inventory. Stone, dirt, gravel, and common drops all flow into the vault.
  • Mid game: Large farming runs (crops, mob drops, wood) become effortless — the vault absorbs everything and keeps your hotbar stocked.
  • Late game: Bulk gathering projects (strip mining, ocean monument clearing, tree farms) are uninterrupted. Your visible inventory stays clean and sorted while the vault accumulates thousands of items in the background.
  • Tip: Because special items are protected, you can safely carry many enchanted tools and named items without worrying that the mod will interfere with them.
