Modular Backpacks Compat

Modular Backpacks Compat improves interoperability between Modular Backpacks and several popular inventory, accessory, farming, and food-quality mods.

Features

• Restores a visible Curios button on the Modular Backpacks screen for quick access to the accessory inventory.
• Removes the extra screen fade and flicker when closing a backpack or switching directly to the Curios screen.
• Displays Vercte's Satchels GUI layers correctly on top of the Modular Backpacks GUI.
• Expands farming pot output storage:
  • Regular farming pots: 3 output slots -> 6 output slots.
  • Gilded farming pots: 6 output slots -> 9 output slots.
• Uses Modular Backpacks' original GUI layout logic so the enlarged farming pot screens remain aligned with the in-game panel behavior.
• Adds third-party seed support for farming pots.
• Recognizes crops using Minecraft's normal plant-to-seed behavior, including CropBlock#getBaseSeedId and block clone items, instead of relying on item-name conventions.
• Supports third-party growable and bonemealable crop blocks when their seed can be identified by the game.
• Generates mature crop drops for automatically detected third-party plants.
• Integrates with Quality Food:
  • Seed quality is transferred to farming pot results.
  • Soil can add an extra chance for quality results.
• Adds configurable soil growth speed and quality bonuses.
• Adds optional manual seed-to-output mappings for unusual crops that cannot expose a seed automatically.

Configuration

The common configuration file is:

config/modular_backpacks_compat-common.toml

Soil effects use this format:

soil_effects = ["farmersdelight:rich_soil;1.5;0.10"]

The fields are:

soil_item_id;growth_speed_multiplier;quality_chance_bonus

For example, 1.5 makes the farming pot finish in two-thirds of its normal time, while 0.10 adds 10 percentage points to the quality chance when Quality Food is installed.

Optional seed mappings use this format:

seed_mappings = ["example:seed;example:crop;1;1"]

The fields are:

seed_item_id;output_item_id;minimum_count;maximum_count

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.1 (required)
• NeoForge 21.1.248 or a compatible NeoForge 21.1.x version (required)

The following integrations are optional. Each feature is enabled only when the corresponding mod is installed:

• Modular Backpacks 0.2.11: farming pot support and backpack GUI integration.
• Curios 9.5.x: the Curios button and fade-free screen transition.
• Quality Food 2.3.x: seed quality inheritance and quality bonuses from soil.
• Vercte's Satchels 1.2.x: Satchels GUI layering, synchronization, and automatic item insertion.

None of the four integration mods above is a mandatory dependency. Without Modular Backpacks, this addon loads safely but has no target-specific features to apply.

This is a compatibility addon. It does not replace the original Modular Backpacks GUI or farming pot system.
