The Quiver is a “smart” portable arrow container that removes inventory micromanagement while shooting. It stores arrows inside itself (5 separate slots), shows the contents directly in the item tooltip, and automatically feeds the selected arrow type into your bow/crossbow.

How it feels in-game
- Load arrows once — then you just shoot normally, without constantly moving stacks around.
- The quiver tooltip works like a mini UI: it shows stored arrow types/counts and highlights the currently selected slot.
- After each shot, the system keeps your shooting consistent by refilling your active arrows automatically.

Capacity and arrow types
- 5 storage slots, up to 64 arrows per slot: up to 320 arrows in one quiver.
- Supports normal, spectral, tipped, and other arrow variants. Tipped arrows keep their effects — different effects are not mixed into the same slot.

Controls (no GUI)
1) Use the quiver (normal use, not sneaking):
   - If the quiver is empty: it pulls arrows from your inventory and distributes them into its 5 slots.
   - If the quiver already contains arrows: it unloads everything back into your inventory. If there isn’t enough space, the excess drops near the player.

2) Use the quiver while sneaking:
   - Cycles the selected arrow slot (through non-empty slots).
   - Immediately switches which arrow type is being fed for shooting.

Offhand support
- The quiver can be carried in the offhand.
- Because offhand “use” isn’t always reliable, interaction is mapped to hitting: with a quiver in offhand, hitting a block/entity triggers the same actions (normal = load/unload, sneaking = switch slot).

Auto-feeding and the “buffer”
To ensure the bow always fires the correct arrow type, the quiver maintains a small arrow buffer in the player inventory and refills it after each shot. If you start drawing a bow/crossbow without an active buffer, the add-on will automatically activate an available quiver (selected hotbar slot → offhand → inventory).

Multiplayer and safety
- Each quiver has its own private storage and doesn’t mix with other quivers (even between different players).
- If a dropped quiver item is removed/despawns, its stored arrows are not lost — they are dropped into the world.

Crafting
The quiver is crafted on a crafting table from leather and string.
