About this project
What does Hotbar Lock Mod (HLM) add?
Locks the hotbar slots.
It has a GUI and keybind (default key is J). While a slot is locked, you can't shift click, click or pick up items in that slot. However, you can hit f to take an offhand item and put it into that slot, and you can hover over another item in your inventory and hit the keybind for a hotbar slot which is locked to move an item into that slot while its locked. You also cant drop an item in a locked slot unless you go into the inventory and drag it out. It is also now FULLY client side.
UPCOMING FEATURES:
Choosing items to block (and leave all other items free to pick up) or items to allow (and leave all other items blocked)
Maybe inventory sorting too
Maybe icons for whats in the slots
Also ppl looking for the older versions i archived all the server side versions because 1. dont really need them and 2. so it shows up as a client side mod
