config/chestcounter.json

You can customize:

  • HUD position
  • HUD visibility options
  • HUD colors
  • Scan radius
  • Scan interval
  • Number of displayed Top Items
  • Key bindings can be customized through the Minecraft controls menu

Advanced users can also edit the configuration file manually.

Default Key Bindings

By default, Chest Counter uses the following keys:

  • Delete (Entf): Toggle HUD display on/off
  • Insert (Einfg): Open Chest Counter settings menu

Both key bindings can be changed through the Minecraft Controls menu.

Multiplayer

Chest Counter works in both singleplayer and multiplayer environments.
