Double Layer Hotbar – by GameReality

Double Layer Hotbar is a high-performance Minecraft Bedrock addon (targeted for 1.20.50+ / 1.21) that upgrades your normal hotbar into a dual-layer, 18–slot loadout system. Designed for builders, PvP players, speedrunners, and technical creators, it lets you carry two full hotbars at once and swap between them instantly, without ever opening your inventory.

🔁 Dual-Layer Hotbar System
Turn your inventory into a smart, two-tier action bar:

Layer 1 – Primary Hotbar: Your regular 9 slots, always visible and ready to use.
Layer 2 – Secondary Hotbar: A hidden second row mapped to the slots behind your hotbar, acting as a backup loadout.
Instant Slot Swaps: Use a compass to instantly swap the selected slot on Layer 1 with its linked slot on Layer 2 (slot 1 ↔ 10, 2 ↔ 11, etc.). Perfect for switching from building tools to combat gear in a single click.

🖥 Smart On-Screen Display
Stay in control and make your gameplay more watchable:

Overlay Above Hotbar: See both layers at once as a clean text display, with each slot shown using compact item codes.
Highlighted Selection: Your current slot is color-highlighted so you and your audience always know what’s active.
Live Updates: The overlay refreshes automatically as you move, swap, or change items, keeping your UI informative without clutter.

🎮 Compass-Controlled GUI & Pro Tools
Fine-tune your loadout with simple, powerful controls:

Quick Swap Mode:
- Tap the compass to perform a fast swap between your currently selected hotbar slot and its paired slot on the second layer.
- Ideal for fast-paced combat, bridging, or clutch moments where opening the inventory would slow you down.
Advanced Swap Menu:
- Sneak while using the compass to open an in-game GUI menu.
- View all nine secondary slots with their contents and choose exactly which one to swap with your current slot.
- Great for organizing kits, explaining setups in videos, or managing specialized loadouts (building, redstone, PvP, exploration).

✨ Extra Features

Multiplayer Ready: Each player gets their own independent double-layer setup, making it perfect for realms and co-op worlds.
Vanilla-Friendly Feel: No custom blocks or cheats—everything works within the normal inventory system, so it looks and feels like a natural extension of Bedrock gameplay.
Creator-Friendly Design: Clear visual feedback, sounds, and messages make this addon perfect for content creators who want clean, professional-looking loadout management on camera.

✅ Usage

Install the behavior pack into your behavior_packs folder.
Enable it in your world settings and turn on the required scripting/Beta APIs options for your Bedrock version.
Join the world, grab a compass, and watch for the on-screen confirmation.
Use the compass for instant swaps, or sneak + use for the advanced swap menu, and enjoy true double-layer hotbar control powered by GameReality.
