Mod for Minecraft Forge 1.20.1 on Inventory, horse harness for the server

I implemented a custom mod for a Minecraft server aimed at expanding the standard inventory system and creating a deeper gameplay mechanic for item storage. The main idea of the project was to rethink the player's basic inventory: instead of standard access to all slots, a bag system was introduced that opens additional space depending on the type and size of the equipment. This made the gameplay more logical, atmospheric, and closer to the medieval style of the server.

Within the mod, several types of bags for the character were implemented, which are equipped in a separate slot and expand the available inventory. Each bag has its own capacity level, allowing the player to gradually gain more options for carrying resources. If a bag is not equipped, some slots remain inaccessible, creating an additional element of balance and affecting resource management during survival, trading, or traveling.

A separate horse inventory system was developed with support for saddle bags. The player can equip the horse with special bags of various sizes that open additional slots for transporting items. For this, a separate interaction interface with the horse was created, displaying the slots for equipment, saddles, armor, and bags. The interaction logic between items was configured so that the mechanics work correctly and do not conflict with the basic rules of the game.

From a technical standpoint, the project included a complete implementation of the modification on Minecraft Forge: registration of new items, menus, interfaces, and tabs, creation of custom GUIs for the player and horse, configuration of client-server interaction through network packets, as well as the implementation of an inventory data saving system. Custom slot handlers, dynamic inventory containers, and patches for the game's base classes were used to integrate the new mechanics into the standard Minecraft architecture.

Special attention was paid to the visual design. The inventory interface received a stylized design in a medieval paper style, enhancing the server's atmosphere and improving the overall experience of using the mod. Localization of item names, hints, system messages, and interface elements was also performed, making the mod understandable and convenient for players.

As a result, not just a set of new items was created, but a full-fledged server mechanic that changes the approach to working with the inventory, adds new opportunities for transporting resources, and organically integrates into the overall concept of the gaming server. Such a mod can be used in RPG, medieval, survival, and roleplay projects where atmosphere, progression, and unique gaming systems are important.
