About this Mod

BetterKeybinds

BetterKeybinds displays your actual assigned keybind on each hotbar slot — small, clean, and always accurate.

How it works

Vanilla Minecraft shows nothing on your hotbar slots. BetterKeybinds adds a small label in the top-right corner of each slot showing the exact key you have bound to it. Remapped your keys? No problem — it always reflects your actual keybinds.

Features

✅ Displays actual keybind per hotbar slot
✅ Updates automatically when keybinds change
✅ Clean and minimal — no clutter
✅ Lightweight — no performance impact

Client-side only — works on any server.

Frequently Asked Questions

BetterKeybinds 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 (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

BetterKeybinds officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.11. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with BetterKeybinds – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if BetterKeybinds 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.
