Ever wanted to stuff a villager into a sack and bury them alive in a chest in the middle of nowhere?! Now you CAN!

The man catcher works by right clicking a mob with an empty sack in your inventory, simple as that, it'll throw the mob into the sack and you can right click with the sack to drop the mob out somewhere else. The sack is reusable too!

(Does not affect players or "boss mobs" like the Wither or Ender Dragon, should apply to modded mobs as long as they aren't boss mobs)

History Lesson

A "man catcher" is an esoteric type of pole weapon which was used in Europe as late as the 18th century. It consisted of a pole mounted with a two pronged head. Each prong was semi-circular in shape with a spring-loaded "door" on the front. This created an effective valve that would allow the ring to pass around a man-sized cylinder and keep it trapped. The man catcher was used primarily to pull a person from horseback and drag him to the ground where he could be helplessly pinned. This is one of the few examples of non-lethal polearms.

Basically...yes this was a real thing.

Backports and Fabric

No to both, I don't have the time to spend doing either. Even if I did I probably wouldn't. Updates to latest stable versions are the only ports I'll be doing.

Modpacks

Obvious really since it's on here at all, but you're welcome to use this in any modpacks.
