Builder's Backpacks
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
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.
This is a small, lightweight mod that adds a single item to the game: The Builder's Backpack.
Found in creative under tools, or craftable using the following recipe:
This backpack will do a few things.
- You can put blocks into it using the UI, opened by holding the item and sneak+right clicking on empty air.
- If configured to do so, it will collect blocks you pick up into it, saving inventory space.
- It will extend your reach by a configurable amount while you have it equipped.
- It has a radial menu that you can open by holding the hotkey, default 'z' to quickly change between blocks.
- While holding the backpack, right clicking it will place the currently selected block.
