About this Mod
Async hotbars is a lightweight client-side mod that reduces lag caused by hotbar and inventory updates.
Some players experience stuttering or short freezes when opening or saving to the hotbar.
This mod improves how hotbar updates are handled on the client by preloading the hotbar and running the save function asynchronously to make the inventory feel smoother and more responsive.
