Hotbar Config
This mod lets you save and manage custom hotbar layouts. When you pick up items, they automatically go into your pre-selected slots, keeping your inventory organized.
About this Mod
This mod adds a powerful and flexible way to manage your hotbar by letting you create and save custom layouts. Instead of constantly rearranging items, you can define exactly which slots specific items should go in, and the mod will handle the rest.
The mod includes an easy-to-use menu, which can be opened by pressing H, allowing you to quickly manage and edit your hotbar presets in-game.
Whenever you pick up items, they are automatically placed into your assigned hotbar slots if a matching slot exists. Items that are not assigned to a specific slot will avoid taking up those reserved spaces, keeping your layout intact. This keeps your inventory clean, consistent, and exactly how you want it, even during fast-paced gameplay.
You can create and store multiple hotbar presets, making it easy to switch between different setups depending on what you’re doing—whether it’s building, exploring, or combat. Each preset can be fully customized and edited at any time, giving you complete control over your inventory layout.
The mod is designed to be simple to use while still offering powerful organization features, helping you spend less time managing your inventory and more time playing.
