Description

Builder's Shulkers lets you use a shulker box's contents without ever placing it down. Open and rearrange one straight from your inventory, and place blocks from a shulker held in your hotbar while you build. ## Build straight from your hotbar ![Pocket-Build Demo](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/GfiZGjmF/images/507999e875939335104f1ea4efe051e0d81147e1.gif) * Hold a shulker box in your hotbar and press **Ctrl + right-click** to enter Pocket-Build mode * Scroll the mouse wheel to select the previous/next different block inside the box. Its name and count show by your hotbar, and the box opens with a dissolving lid that reveals the selected block rendered inside it * Right-click to place that block straight from the box while the box stays in your hand * Middle-click a block you already have in the box to jump straight to it * Hold Ctrl to peek at the box's full contents in an overlay above your hotbar ## Open and manage shulker boxes from your inventory ![Shulker-Inventory Demo](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/GfiZGjmF/images/50bc41e62afa08ea27b2ed6c040b8f409903eb97.gif) * Right-click a shulker box in your inventory to open it * Move items in and out with all the usual controls: left and right click, shift-click, drag, hotbar number keys, and drop * Close it with Escape, or by right-clicking the same shulker again * While one is open, you can right-click another to switch straight to it * There are open and close sounds, and the lid smoothly animates ## Multiplayer ![Multiplayer Animations Demo](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/GfiZGjmF/images/cfe0ca6404edfe3eceebb0612f18ae9412e6b5ba.gif) * Works in multiplayer, including the lid animations on shulkers other players hold * **Players without the mod can still join the server normally**: they simply do not see the extra animations and sounds ## Designed to fit in * Vanilla+: improves shulker handling without changing how the game looks or feels * Built on the vanilla shulker container (same screen, same data), so it plays nicely with most other mods, and it works with shulker boxes added by other mods ## Customization * **Settings screen**: Press B (rebindable) to open it and tune the cosmetics: lid animations, the lid effect (dissolve, disappear, or stay solid), the block rendered inside the box and its count, the open/close sounds, and more. * **Custom keybinds**: Every control lives in Options -> Controls under "Builder's Shulkers" and can be rebound or unbound: the Pocket-Build hold key (default Left Control), a peek key (default Left Control), and a single-press "Toggle Pocket-Build" (unbound by default) to enter and leave the mode with one button (handy on a controller or on touch). * **Gamerules**: Server admins can turn the access from inventory and Pocket-Build features on or off. ## Safe by design * Everything that moves items is handled by the server, so your items can never be duplicated ## Requirements * Minecraft 26.1.x or 26.2 * Fabric Loader and Fabric API Put this mod and Fabric API in your `mods` folder. ## Open source Builder's Shulkers is open source. * Code: [https://github.com/Moncef-dev/builders-shulkers](https://github.com/Moncef-dev/builders-shulkers) * Found a bug or have an idea?
