Inventory Backups

Records every inventory change. Roll back any moment, find any item and see who took it, even for offline players.

Inventory Backups

Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.1.2, 26.2, 26.3 NeoForge, Forge or Fabric Server-side, the client mod is optional GitHub

Inventory backups for server admins.

The mod records every change in every player's inventory, armor, ender chest and mod slots. When someone loses their things to a server bug, a crash, a bad connection or anything like it, open their timeline, pick the moment before it happened and give everything back with one click.

The admin screen: a player's timeline and the inventory restored by an admin

About 100 bytes per change  ·  Offline players too  ·  Vanilla clients work through chat

Main command: /inventory ui

Opens the admin screen; Ctrl+I does the same. The admin needs the mod on their client too.


After a death

The entry after a death: every slot marked as lost

Kestrel was blown up by a creeper deep in a mine and came back with nothing. The death entry still holds every slot, with the cause and the place.
Restore all puts it back, or pick only some slots. An admin who restored the wrong moment can undo it.

Every change on the timeline

A slot's tooltip with the time and place the item arrived

Pickups, crafting and chest visits become entries, one for each burst of changes. Hover a slot to see when the item got there and where the player stood.
Pin two moments as A and B to compare them, or play the whole day back.

Where did the sword go?

Item search: holders of a named sword and its transfer trail

Search for any item by id, name or enchantment and see who has it now and who had it before.
One named or enchanted stack can be followed from player to player: dropped at a death, picked up, put into a barrel, taken out.

From chat, without the client mod

The clickable timeline in chat and a death alert with buttons

Admins with a vanilla client get clickable lists in chat with view, restore, copy and teleport buttons on every entry.
With deathAlerts on, online admins get a message about every death with items and can restore it from there.


Getting started

Put the mod into the mods folder of the server. On Fabric it also needs Fabric API and Forge Config API Port.
Admins who want the timeline screen put the same file into their own mods folder and type /inventory ui or press Ctrl+I. Other players do not need it.
Operators can use everything. With LuckPerms, grant inventorybackups.view, .restore, .edit, .search and .ui per group.
/inventory list <player> shows the timeline in chat and /invsearch <item> finds items. Backups and configs of version 2.x are taken over on the first start.
