About this Mod
Practical Barrels
About
Practical Barrels is a fully-clientside Fabric-based Minecraft mod designed to offer a unique sorting mechanism for barrels. If desperate, this also applies to certain inventories named 'Barrel' in your respective language.
The new functionalities include:
- Right-clicking an empty barrel inserts whatever is in your main hand, and all other items in your inventory of that type.
- If the barrel contains an item you're holding, right-clicking the barrel imports all of that item (immediately closing the window).
- An added button allows the player to insert all items related to those in the barrel inventory at once.
(Available in 1.0.4, altering the mod's configurations in-game requires Modmenu and Cloth Config.)
