About this Mod

About

RuneFinder automatically scans any opened chest, locates items that match a name you specify, and tosses them onto the ground for pickup by hoppers.

Despite the name, RuneFinder isn’t limited to runes. It was made for the Complex server, where hundreds of look-alike “rune” items made manual sorting a nightmare, so I made the mod. It works with any item, on any server.

RuneFinder is fully client-side.


Commands

Core

Action Command
Toggle the mod on/off /rf
Search for items /rf find <item name>

Presets

Presets let you autocomplete item names for different servers.

Action Command
Set preset /rf preset <preset>
Clear preset /rf preset clear

Arrays

Arrays let you save areas and limit which chests RuneFinder works in.

Action Command
Add array /rf array add <name> <posA> <posB>
Remove array /rf array remove <name>
List arrays /rf array list

Restrict to Arrays

Action Command
Toggle restrict mode /rf restrictarrays
Enable restrict mode /rf restrictarrays on
Disable restrict mode /rf restrictarrays off

When enabled, RuneFinder will only work on chests inside saved arrays.


Config

RuneFinder creates a config file in:

.minecraft/config/rune-finder.json5


Presets Config

Presets are lists of item names used for autocomplete in /rf find.

Example:

activePreset: "complex",

presets: {
  complex: {
    items: [
      "Rune 1",
      "Rune 2",
      "Oak Log",
      "paper"
    ]
  }
}

You can add your own presets and select them with:

/rf preset <name>


Complex Server Preset

I made a preset for the Complex server here:

https://github.com/sandstorrm/runefinder-presets/blob/main/complex.json5

This preset is not included in the mod by default, since server items can change.

Just copy the contents into your config file.


Other Config Options

You can also configure:

  • drop delays
  • arrays
  • restrict to arrays mode

Frequently Asked Questions

Rune Finder server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Rune Finder compatible with fabric?

Rune Finder officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.11, 1.21.10, 1.21.9. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Rune Finder – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Rune Finder consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
