Inventory Backups

Inventory Backups

Every inventory change of every player, recorded - roll back any moment with one click, find any item and see who took it, online or offline.

📦 Requires NeoForge 1.21.1 or Forge 1.20.1 · on the server; admins who want the timeline screen also put it on their client

✨ Features

• 📼 Every change recorded - inventory, armor, offhand, ender chest and mod slots, merged into one entry per burst; about 100 bytes per change and 0.005 ms per player and tick.
• 🕒 A timeline with context - deaths with cause and place (recorded before the items drop), joins, quits, chests used, restores and edits by admins. Optional death alerts in the admins' chat with preview, restore and teleport buttons.
• ↩️ Restore in one click - a whole moment or only some slots, with undo; or give yourself a copy and leave the player's items alone.
• 🔍 Find any item - who has it now, who had it and when, by id, name, enchantment or one exact stack, with its trail through drops, death loot and chests; /invsearch container shows who emptied a chest.
• 🖥️ Admin screen - scrub the timeline, play it back, compare two moments, see what changed and where every item came from (Ctrl+I, needs the mod on the admin's client).
• 💤 Offline players too - restore and edit players who are not online; the change goes into their save file. Commands suggest their names too.
• 🎒 Mod slots - Curios, Accessories, Cosmetic Armor, Traveler's Backpack, Tool Belt and Backpacked are backed up and restored with the rest.
• 🗜️ Small and safe storage - compact day files written in the background, thinned with age instead of cut off, with disk budgets; a crash loses seconds at most.
• 🔐 Permissions - separate view, restore, edit and search nodes for LuckPerms; operators without one. Works for vanilla clients through clickable chat.

🎮 Controls

Ctrl+I opens the admin screen. Without the client mod: /inventory list <player> for a clickable timeline, /inventory set|undo|copy|player, /enderchest ... the same for the ender chest, /invsearch <item> for the item search. All commands are listed in the README.

⚙️ Configuration

config/inventory/InventoryBackups.toml or Mods > Inventory Backups > Config: what is recorded, how long it is kept, disk budgets, permission level. 2.x configs and backups are taken over on the first start.

🤝 Compatibility

✅ Curios API (optional) - every curio slot, cosmetic slots included, is recorded, shown on the Mod slots tab, restored with the inventory and editable live.

✅ Accessories (optional) - accessory and cosmetic slots are recorded and restored the same way; with the Curios compatibility layer each slot is recorded once.

✅ Cosmetic Armor Reworked (optional) - the cosmetic armor slots are recorded and restored.

✅ Traveler's Backpack (optional) - the worn backpack and everything in it is recorded and restored, also when it is placed on the ground at death.

✅ Backpacked (optional) - the equipped backpacks and their contents are recorded and restored.

✅ LuckPerms (optional) - grant inventorybackups.view, .restore, .edit, .search and .ui per group instead of operator status.
