About this project

What does Chest-Buddy add?

ChestBuddy 📦🔍

Ever dumped all your stuff into a messy room of random chests and completely forgot where you put your diamonds? Yeah, me too.

ChestBuddy is a lightweight quality-of-life mod that completely solves chest organization. It adds three tiny, unobtrusive sorting buttons to your chests to keep your loot organized, plus a powerful Chest Radar to instantly track down lost items.

✨ Features

  • 🔍 The Chest Radar: Press H to open a sleek, simple search bar. Type in the item you're looking for (like "diamond" or "oak planks"), and every chest around you containing that item will instantly glow blue—right through walls!
  • 🧲 Smart Highlighting: When you open a highlighted chest, the exact slots containing your searched item will glow green, while everything else gets dimmed out. No more frantic rummaging!
  • ✨ Typo Tolerance: In a rush? The radar has built-in fuzzy searching. Even if you accidentally misspell a word (like emrald), the radar is smart enough to know what you meant and find it anyway.
  • 🧹 Quick Sort Buttons: Adds three tiny inventory buttons to your chest screens so you can instantly sort your loot by Name (A to Z), Count (largest stacks first), or Type (groups blocks, food, tools, etc., together).

⚙️ How to use

  • Press H anywhere to open the Chest Radar.
  • Type an item name and press Enter to search.
  • Press ESC to instantly clear the radar.
  • Open any chest to use the sort buttons in the top right!
