Chest Transporter: Hand Truck
A hand truck that picks up chests, barrels and spawners with everything inside and puts them down somewhere else.
Moving a full chest used to mean emptying it. Inspired by cubex2's Chest Transporter for 1.12.2, this mod is written from scratch for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge and Fabric: load a container onto a truck, carry it anywhere, put it down with everything still inside.

Features
- Pick up: right-click a chest, trapped chest, barrel or monster spawner with an empty truck; it is loaded with everything inside (items, custom name, unopened loot, the spawner's mob). Nothing drops.
- Put down: right-click any block; the load is placed facing you, like a block. A chest next to another chest joins it into a double chest.
- Minecarts: take the chest off a minecart with chest, or put a carried chest onto a plain minecart.
- Heavy: while a loaded truck is in your inventory you walk and mine slower, cannot jump up a block and get hungry faster (not in creative).
- Safe: protected areas, locked containers and loads over the size limit are refused with a message.
- Six tiers: wooden (1 move), copper (4), iron (9), golden (19), diamond (79) and netherite (159, fireproof); repaired in an anvil.
- Config and tags: spawner rules, load size limit and the carrying effects in
config/chest_transporter-server.toml;chest_transporter:transportablefor modded containers. - 6 languages: English, Russian, Ukrainian, German, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil).

Performance
The carrying effects check the inventory only when it changes (1–2 µs per player tick), and the truck model is built once, without hidden faces.
Credits
The idea of carrying chests with their contents comes from Chest Transporter by cubex2 (Minecraft 1.12.2). This mod's code, model and textures are new, made by Vladeezyy.
