InventoryNeko
Mascots in your inventory!
About this Mod
This mod adds a set of "inventory mascots". They are special items which can be found as loot in dungeon chests.
The twist is that, as long as they are in a container of some kind (or, in survival mode, the player's inventory), they're sentient! Sort of. For example, they can react in certain ways to different items placed in the same inventory they are in - that is to say, certain mascots will start running towards a certain kind of item. Other functionality may be added in the future. Video Example
The mod currently provides five different mascots. From left to right: Neko, Tora-Neko, Dog, Sakura Kinomoto and Tomoyo Daidouji. Collect them all!
The inspiration for the mod, as well as the assets used, come from the "oneko" program for Unix-based operating systems.
The recommended GUI scale for this mod is "Normal". Note that the mascots will only work in rectangular containers such as chests - other types of containers may prove too complicated for them and they'll just go to sleep.

Server lagging with InventoryNeko – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if InventoryNeko consumes the most tick time.
