Player Weight Mod

Customize Item Weight in Inventory

Player Weight Mod is an innovative solution that allows players to control the mass of each item in their inventory and configure consequences when reaching specific weight thresholds.

Important Note: The mod does not assign weight automatically. Users must manually select weight for each item or set default values. This is designed for complete system customization.

Functional Features

Modern Forge versions enable detection of inventories inside items, and the mod utilizes this capability. The system also recognizes fluids in containers and adds their mass to the total item weight.

If fluid weight is not specified, the standard formula is used: (fluid density / 1000) × fluid amount / 1000. For custom fluids, the formula is: (custom weight × fluid amount / 1000).

Measurement System

Weight in the mod is represented by floating-point numbers, ensuring maximum flexibility:

• 1000 = 1 ton
• 1 = 1 kg
• 0.001 = 1 gram
• 0.000001 = 1 milligram

Configuration File Types

Configuration Interface

To access the configuration interface, set the "loadHelperUI" parameter to true in the configuration folder before starting the game. The interface provides access to all Minecraft data and allows:

• Configuring weight of individual items and categories
• Modifying maximum stack size
• Setting default weights
• Sorting elements by various criteria
• Exporting changes to configuration files

Changes take effect after exporting and applying via reload command, eliminating the need to restart the game.
