Actually QuickStack

Actually QuickStack

Quick Stack. Restock. Sort. Protect your inventory.

Actually QuickStack is a lightweight inventory utility for Minecraft 1.20.1 (Fabric), developed for Path of the Ascended and available as a standalone mod.

Deposit matching items into nearby storage, restock the items you carry, sort inventories and move stacks precisely. Everything is initiated by the player. No storage networks, background chest searches or automated transfers.

Features

Quick Stack & Restock

• Stack sends items to nearby eligible containers only when a matching item is already stored there, preserving item data and enchantments.
• Restock refills stacks already in your inventory. It never introduces new items into empty slots.
• Separate hotbar settings, configurable search radius and optional line-of-sight checks.

Middle-click Sorting

Middle-click to sort your 27-slot main inventory, a chest, barrel, shulker box or supported Inmis backpack. Compatible stacks are consolidated without mixing different NBT; your hotbar and protected slots stay in place. Ascending/descending order, subtle animation and sound are optional.

Precise Transfers

• Ctrl + Left Click: Transfer one item between your inventory and an open container or supported backpack.
• Ctrl + Shift + Left Click: Transfer all eligible stacks of the selected item type, preserving distinct NBT variants.
• ↑ / ↓ arrows: In supported open storage screens, click to deposit/withdraw items matching existing destination stacks, or Shift-click to transfer all eligible items. These arrows affect only the open container, never nearby storage. The hotbar is excluded.

Persistent Slot Locks

Left Alt + Left Click cycles a slot through:

• Normal: Stack and Restock allowed.
• Gold: Blocks Stack, permits Restock.
• Red: Blocks both.

Gold and red locks also protect slots during sorting and supported automatic quick-move actions, while leaving ordinary manual inventory management available. Lock choices persist per player and across supported backpack layouts, including empty slots.

Compatibility & Performance

Vanilla chests, trapped chests, double chests and barrels work out of the box. Additional storage blocks are opt-in through server-side block ID/tag allowlists and a denylist. Storage Drawers and compatible Every Compat-generated drawer variants have optional integration. Third-party storage should be tested before use on an important world.

Inmis integration supports open-backpack Stack/Restock, sorting and transfers. Mouse Tweaks remains responsible for its own drag and Shift-hover gestures. Mod Menu is optional and provides a built-in settings screen.

Nearby storage is scanned only when Stack or Restock is pressed. Searches use loaded chunks, an 8-block default radius (configurable 1–16), container limits, server-side action validation and cooldowns. All animations, sounds and feedback are optional.

Configuration & Controls

Most options are available through Mod Menu in singleplayer or through two documented JSON files:

• config/actually_quickstack/client.json — visuals, buttons, sorting effects, shortcuts and backpack screen preferences.
• config/actually_quickstack/server.json — storage allowlists, search limits, gameplay permissions, hotbar and protection rules.

Both files generate automatically and include _help_* setting descriptions. Existing settings and saved locks are preserved when upgrading. Keybinds are rebindable through Options → Controls.

Installation

Requires: Minecraft 1.20.1, Fabric Loader, Fabric API and Java 17+. Install on both client and server for multiplayer, using the same mod version.

Remove older Actually QuickStack JARs before installing 2.0.0.0. You can retain your existing config files and worlds. Optional mods: Inmis, Mouse Tweaks, Storage Drawers, Every Compat and Mod Menu.

Support

For issues, provide the Minecraft/mod versions, mod list, latest.log and reproduction steps. Broader dedicated-server and third-party storage behaviour may vary and has not been exhaustively certified.
