Description

Ender chests are overpowered.

Using shulker boxes, a single Ender Chest can hold : 64x27x27 = 46,656 items (or 729 unique unstackables).

For most casual players, that's almost all of a base's storage. It makes item transportation infrastructure (chest boats, chest minecarts, animals...) practically useless.

This mod aims to rebalance Ender Chests to be better suited to only hold the essentials when adventuring.

Features

Prevents the use of skulkers boxes inside Ender Chests.
Opening a chest requires an eye of ender. The Ender Chest stays opened for 10 minutes.
Fully customizable, data driven config. Option to prevent Ender Chest use altogether (off by default)

Configuring the Mod

Edit config/yafuce_nerfed_ender_chest.json to configure the mod.
