About this Mod
Trade
A server-side Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.x that lets players trade items with each other using a custom GUI — no client mod required.
Usage
/trade <player>
- Run the command to send a trade request
- The target player runs the same command back to accept
- Both players get a chest GUI to place their offered items
- Both must click Accept for the trade to go through
- Either player can close the chest or click Cancel at any time
GUI Layout
- Left 4×3 grid — your offered items (12 slots)
- Right 4×3 grid — their offered items (read-only display)
- ✔ Accept — click to accept the trade (turns green when accepted)
- ✗ Cancel — click to cancel and return all items
Features
- Server-side only — works with vanilla clients
- No custom registry entries — uses a vanilla chest container
- Ghost item prevention — locked slots are fully protected against client mods (inventory sorters, Mouse Wheelie, etc.)
Requirements
- Minecraft 1.21.11
- Fabric Loader 0.18.6+
- Fabric API

trade mod 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 trade mod compatible with fabric?
trade mod officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.11. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with trade mod – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if trade mod consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
