This mod takes items you pick up and puts them into an offhand shulker box if there is space. It behaves just like a normal inventory and is extremely useful for resource gathering.
Usage:
Gather large amounts of resources from a farm or mining session and instantly put them into an offhand shulker box. This can be accomplished by simply filling all the slots of a shulker box with the filter item(s) you are mining.
Examples:
1. Place an empty shulker box in your offhand and start picking up items. The items will be redirected from the player inventory into the shulker inventory.
2. Fill an empty shulker box with the items you would like to gather. Empty shulker slots will store any pickup item. Then, simply place the shulker in your offhand and watch as the items flow into your shulker!
Installation:
- For client side: Download the jar and place it in "../.minecraft/mods"
- For server side: Download the jar and place it in "../server-version/mods" (if on a server, this mod is server-side only)
Notes:
This project is vanilla-friendly so it will not affect your world if installed or uninstalled.

Would it be possible to use existing items in the shulker to act like a filter for what it can pick up while in the offhand?
In reply to AffIicti0n:
Absolutely! That's one of this mod's main purposes for bulk resource collection. The shulker box basically just acts like an inventory that has higher priority than the main one.
so, i made a mod review if anyone wants to hear my two cents on the mod and see it in action. on that note, this video is a youtube short i made by crowbaring a 16:9 video into a 1:1 video. anyways, i hope you enjoy the video!
Can you make an enchantment? it would be a nice addition
In reply to elhertz:
Since applying enchantments to blocks isn't very vanilla-friendly, I don't believe they would be appropriate. The main purpose of this mod is to provide an easy-to-use resource gathering system that can be applied to any existing shulker box.
In reply to FamroFexl:
Oh what I meant was an enchantments for tools. If you break a block with a tool with the "Shulker Loader" enchantment and if you have a Shulker box in your inventory then the drops go into the Shulker box instead of dropping on the floor
In reply to elhertz:
The goal of this project is not really applicable to that scenario. First of all, enchantments aren't necessary since the vanilla pickup system makes this mod feel the most natural. An automatic system has the potential for abuse since items could be picked up from a location the player is incapable of physically accessing. Also, the integration of an enchantment would, at the very least, necessitate its inclusion in the enchanting table which brings up a whole slew of issues such as setting its rarity and level requirement in the table. Adding a book for the enchantment would also not be ideal since such items would disappear if the mod was deleted. Thanks for your thoughtful suggestion though!
In reply to FamroFexl:
Fair enough. Thanks.

Nope, I don't want to enchant a Shulker box. I want to enchant a tool so it works with every Shulkerbox
