About this project

What does Simple AutoPickup add?

AutoPickup

FabricNeoforgeForge Minecraft License

AutoPickup is a highly configurable server-side mod that automates the collection of items and experience orbs. It features session tracking, a multi-tier permission system, and extensive mod compatibility to ensure drops are attributed to the correct players, even when using high-speed mining mods or engaging in group combat.


✨ Features

Core Functionality

  • 🎒 Seamless Collection: Items from broken blocks and mob kills are instantly added to your inventory
  • ⭐ Smart Experience Handling: Experience is cached and applied after a short delay, ensuring tools take durability damage before Mending activates
  • 🚀 Lag-Free: Prevents item and experience orb entities from spawning, reducing server load
  • 📦 Overflow Protection: If your inventory is full, items safely drop at your feet
  • 🔧 Granular Control: Toggle individual features independently via commands or config GUI

Advanced Features

  • 👥 Mob Loot Splitting: Share mob drops and XP with nearby players who participated in the kill
  • 🎮 Per-Player Permissions: Server admins can override settings for specific players
  • 💾 Client Profiles: Automatic per-server/world configuration profiles for seamless server switching
  • 🔌 Extensive Mod Compatibility: Works automatically with VeinMiner, TreeHarvester, Traveler's Backpack, FallingTree, Panda's Falling Trees and more

One-Block Mining


⚙️ Configuration

AutoPickup uses a flexible three-tier permission system:

  1. Server Defaults - Global fallback settings
  2. Admin Overrides - Per-player forced settings (highest priority)
  3. Client Preferences - Individual player choices (only if server allows)

🖥️ Configuration Menu (Client)

You can configure your personal preferences via the menu. Use Mod Menu for a easy access on Fabric. Otherwise, use /autopickup gui

Settings available:

  • Master Toggle
  • Block Item Pickup
  • Block Experience Pickup
  • Mob Loot Pickup
  • Mob Experience Pickup
  • Split Mob Loot (share drops with nearby attackers)
  • Split Mob XP (share experience with nearby attackers)

Note: Your client settings only apply if the server admin has enabled the corresponding "Allow" setting for that feature.

✅ Compatibility

AutoPickup hooks into core Minecraft mechanics and works seamlessly with most mods out of the box.

🔧 Explicitly Supported Mods

Mod Status Notes
VeinMiner Full All vein blocks picked up instantly with XP
TreeHarvester Full Logs/leaves collected; saplings auto-replanted if enabled
Traveler's Backpack Full Items route to backpack filter first (If the Auto Pickup upgrade is there it works)
FallingTree Full Tree items handle the different break modes
Panda's Falling Trees Full Tree items are handled by AutoPickup after fall animation
RightClickHarvest Full Right-click crop harvests (including tall sugarcane) picked up automatically
General Block Breakers Compatible Any mod using vanilla break hooks

📋 Technical Details

AutoPickup intercepts drops at these injection points:

  • Block.dropResources() - Primary block drop handling
  • ServerLevel.addFreshEntity() - Item entity spawning and falling-block entity tracking (FallingTree and any mod that spawns drops directly)
  • LivingEntity.dropFromLootTable() - Mob loot generation
  • LivingEntity.dropExperience() - Mob XP orbs
  • Block.popExperience() - Block XP orbs
  • ExperienceOrb.award() - Captures XP spawned directly by block-breaking mods (e.g. VeinMiner)
  • ServerPlayerGameMode.useItemOn() - Right-click harvesting (sweet berries, jukebox disc ejection, crops via the RightClickHarvest mod, etc.)
  • ItemFrame.hurt() / hurtServer() - Items removed from item frames by left-clicking
  • Mob.interact() / ShearsItem.interactLivingEntity() - Shearing drops (wool, snow golem pumpkins, mooshroom mushrooms)
  • BrushableBlockEntity.dropContent() - Brushing suspicious sand/gravel
  • LivingEntity.dropFromEntityInteractLootTable() - Brushing armadillos for scutes

This broad compatibility means most mods work automatically without explicit support.

MultiBlock Mining


🎮 Mob Loot Splitting

When Split Mob Loot or Split Mob XP is enabled, rewards from mob kills are shared among participants:

How It Works

  1. Damage Tracking: The mod tracks the last 10 unique players who damaged each mob
  2. Eligibility Check: On mob death, only players who:
    • Are online and not spectating
    • Have Master enabled
    • Have the specific Mob Pickup feature enabled
    • Have the specific Split feature enabled
    • Are in the same world as the killer
  3. Distribution:
    • Items are split evenly; the killer receives any remainder
    • Experience is split evenly; the killer receives any remainder
    • Items that don't fit in inventories are dropped at the mob's location

Example

Player A (killer), B, and C all damaged a zombie. Settings:

  • Player A: Master ✅, Mob Loot ✅, Split Mob Loot ✅
  • Player B: Master ✅, Mob Loot ✅, Split Mob Loot ✅
  • Player C: Master ✅, Mob Loot ✅, Split Mob Loot ❌

Result: Only A and B receive split loot. Player C gets nothing because they disabled splitting.

         items.forEach(stack -> player.dropItem(stack, false));
         player.addExperience(xp);
         return;
      }

      // AutoPickup handles:
      // - Inventory insertion
      // - Traveler's Backpack routing
      // - Config checks (Master, Blocks, etc.)
      List<ItemStack> remaining = AutoPickupApi.tryPickup(player, items);

      // Drop items that didn't fit
      remaining.forEach(stack -> player.dropItem(stack, false));

      // AutoPickup handles:
      // - Mending calculations
      // - Config checks
      AutoPickupApi.tryPickupBlockExperience(player, xp);
   }

   // For mob-related rewards
   public void giveMobReward(Player player, List<ItemStack> loot, int xp) {
      List<ItemStack> remaining = AutoPickupApi.tryPickupFromMob(player, loot);
      remaining.forEach(stack -> player.dropItem(stack, false));
