VirtualBackpack
Every block you mine and every mob you kill sends its drops straight into a virtual backpack instead of cluttering the ground. No more losing items in lava, no more full inventories while strip mining.
Features
Automatic Collection — mined blocks and mob drops go directly into your backpack. No items ever hit the ground.
Unlimited Stacking — forget the 64-item cap. Store 10,000 cobblestone in a single slot. Hover over any item to see the exact count.
Enchantment Support — Fortune, Silk Touch, Looting, and all other enchantments work exactly as they should. The backpack collects whatever would have dropped.
Clean GUI — open with /bp. Paginated inventory with color-coded items showing total counts, stack breakdowns, and simple click controls:
Item Drop Prevention — optionally block players from dropping items with Q or dragging out of inventory. Enabled by default.
Creeper Controls — two separate config options:
Persistent Storage — backpack data saves to disk automatically and survives server restarts.
