How to use the plugin
1. to create a crate first place down a shulker of any colour and put a command block minecart in the top-left slot of the inventory. This acts as a safeguard so that only players with access to Creative mode can create crates.

2. Place the items you want players to be able to win into the shulker box excluding the first and last slots per row, they will show up in the preveiw the same way you placed them. An item automatically has a weight of 1 by default, to change this hold your item and run the command: /setweight <weight>

When you're finished, close the inventory. The shulker box will automatically be converted into a crate and you will be able to punch it to open the preview gui for the crate and operators will see an edit button at the bottom of the preview menu, clicking it reopens the original shulker so you can edit it

3. To add a custom key to a crate, hold the item you want to use for your crate and run the command /setcratekey then place the item directly below the command block minecart in the edit menu, Players will now need a matching item in order to open the crate. there will be a button for operators to give themselves a stack of that crate key in the preveiw

4. To give your crate a custom name, rename a piece of paper in an anvil and place it directly below the key slot. The paper's name will be used as the crate's display name and will appear above the crate after it has been interacted with.
