Why a Datapack?

<br /> This project uses a datapack to ensure: <br /> <br /> • No Mods Required ✅: Works on vanilla servers! Friends can join hassle-free. Once the datapack/mod is installed by the host, no client installations are needed. <br /> <br /> • Compatability ✅: Will work with practically any mod! <br /> <br /> • Lightweight ✅: Minimal performance impact compared to mods. <br /> <br /> <br /> However, due to limitations of datapacks, there are a couple constraints: <br /> <br /> <br /> • Creative Mode Pickup ⛔: Chest pickup does not work in Creative Mode. Players have to be in Survival. <br /> <br /> • Model Alignment ⛔: Datapacks can’t fully customize entity models. Chestpack models are anchored to the arm; This means it won't align to the player's back during fast movement. <br /> <br />
