I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Ender chests are overpowered.
Using shulker boxes, a single Ender Chest can hold : 64x27x27 = 46,656 items (or 729 unique unstackables).
For most casual players, that's almost all of a base's storage. It makes item transportation infrastructure (chest boats, chest minecarts, animals...) practically useless.
This mod aims to rebalance Ender Chests to be better suited to only hold the essentials when adventuring.
Features
- Prevents the use of skulkers boxes inside Ender Chests.
- Opening a chest requires an eye of ender. The Ender Chest stays opened for 10 minutes.
- Fully customizable, data driven config. Option to prevent Ender Chest use altogether (off by default)
Configuring the Mod
