Description

AutoEat - Stay full, stay alive!
AutoEat automatically eats for you when your hunger drops, so you can keep mining, fighting, exploring, and building without interruptions. Built to stay lightweight, client-side, configurable, and friendly for survival gameplay and modpacks.
Supports Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge on supported releases.
✨ Features
- Smart auto-eat: configurable hunger trigger with optional "eat until full"
- Restore slot: returns to your previous sword, tool, block, or hotbar item after eating
- Smart food selection: considers nutrition, saturation, hunger waste, and current health
- Panic mode: prioritizes premium food when your health is low
- Golden food control: golden foods can be used normally or saved for emergencies
- Food waste reduction: avoids using large food when a smaller option is enough
- Modded food detection: automatically detects compatible vanilla and modded food
- Custom Food List: allow or block individual foods with search, filters, and bulk actions
- Presets: Default, Safe Survival, Combat, Explore, AFK Safe, and AFK Fishing
- Damage pause: optionally pauses AutoEat after taking damage
- Input pause: prevents conflicts with fighting, mining, placing, and manual item use
- Weapon pause: optionally prevents food switching while holding a weapon or shield
- Placement support: allows block placement while eating and resumes after a delay
- Offhand support: optionally prioritizes food held in the offhand
- Fishing-safe behavior: avoids pulling or reusing fishing rods while fishing
- Riding support: configurable behavior for animals, mounts, boats, and vehicles
- Water Breathing support: allows underwater eating when enough effect time remains
- Hostile mob safety: separate detection ranges for melee and ranged enemies
- Activity awareness: optional pauses while sprinting, airborne, swimming, or using menus
- Configurable delays: separate timing controls for damage, input, placement, switching, and eating
- Clean UI: organized settings, aligned controls, readable sliders, presets, and tooltips

- Client-side only: no server installation required
- Modpack friendly: designed to work alongside other mods without unnecessary dependencies
