About this Mod

Bundle Backport-ish

fabric-api

An opinionated backport of the bundle scrolling and dyeing mechanics from 1.21.2. The UI is unchanged (other than showing which slot is selected), so you still can see all the items.

All 17 bumdle colors

Details

  • You can dye a bundle by combining it with the respective dye in a crafting grid.
    Bundle dyeing recipe
    • It retains its items, like a shulker box.
  • You can scroll the mouse wheel to select different slots in the bundle which determines what item you pull out of it.
    • Currently, the slot stays selected when you mouse off the bundle or pass it to another player.
    • All interactions are still through right click, like in 1.21.1-.
  • The recipe is updated to only require one leather and one string, like 1.21.2.
    Bundle crafting recipe
    • There is also a datapack you can enable with /datapack enable "bundle-backportish:rabbithide" or in the world creation menu which lets you craft it with either leather or rabbit hide.

  • You do not need to enable the bundles experiment, it is enabled by default and hidden.
  • Currently, right clicking a bundle in the world still dumps all the items out, although this may be changed in the future.

Compat

Contains integration with EMI to show the bundle dyeing recipes, as they are NBT crafting and wouldn't show up normally.

Works with Mouse Tweaks: scrolling will change bundle selection instead of extracting items

Known Bugs
  • If you make the crafting recipe for a dyed bundle but then manipulate the contents of the bundle, it will not update the result bundle. Hopefully this will be fixed in a future release.
