About this Mod
Action Deck
Action Deck is a Fabric mod that adds fully data-driven collectible playing cards and interactive deck stacks to Minecraft.
Create custom cards, build themed decks, shuffle stacks, draw cards, and mix cards from completely different decks together.
Features
- Fully data-driven cards
- Custom deck definitions
- Interactive deck stack block
- Shuffle decks in-world
- Draw cards directly from stacks
- Mix cards from multiple decks
- Resource-pack compatible textures
- Easy command support
How It Works
Cards and decks are loaded from datapacks, making the mod highly customizable without needing code changes.
Deck stacks placed in the world can:
- Store multiple cards
- Be shuffled by sneaking and right-clicking
- Allow drawing cards one at a time
- Accept additional cards manually
- Automatically remove themselves when empty
Cards are not restricted to a single deck, so you can create completely mixed stacks and custom gameplay systems.
Commands
/actiondeck card give <card_id>
/actiondeck deck give <deck_id>
/card give <card_id>
Perfect For
- RPG servers

- Adventure maps
- Custom collectible systems
- Datapack-heavy modpacks
For Developers & Datapack Creators

Action Deck server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Action Deck compatible with fabric?
Action Deck officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Action Deck – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Action Deck consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
