Inventory Snake

Your inventory is following you!

Inventory Snake turns your stored items into a trail of segments that follows you through your Minecraft Bedrock world.

Every occupied storage slot becomes a labeled green segment behind your character. The more stacks you carry, the longer your inventory snake becomes. Explore, mine and survive while keeping your valuable items away from lava!

How it works

• Your nine hotbar slots remain with you.

• Each occupied slot in the rest of your inventory creates one segment in the snake.

• Each segment displays the name and quantity of its item stack.

• Interact with one of your own segments to swap its stack with the currently selected hotbar slot.

• If a segment remains in lava for two seconds, its item stack is destroyed.

• Your snake reforms when you change dimensions or travel a large distance quickly.

Challenge yourself

Can you complete a survival playthrough while keeping your inventory snake safe? Be especially careful when exploring caves or traveling through the Nether: a valuable stack at the back of your trail might reach lava after you have already crossed it.

For a harder challenge, try using the segments to retrieve your stored items instead of moving them directly through the inventory screen.

Current version: early prototype

This is the first experimental version of Inventory Snake. Please test it in a new world and report any problems you encounter.

Current limitations:

• Segments are labeled green markers; they do not yet display the actual item models.

• The normal inventory screen remains accessible.

• Mobs and explosions do not currently scatter or steal items from the snake.

• Segments follow your recorded path but can sometimes pass through terrain.

• The snake does not currently have visible links between segments.

• Lava affects all stored stacks, including items that would normally be fireproof.

• Multiplayer and in-game behavior still need further testing.
