Emerald Pouch

Emerald Pouch adds two tiers of emerald storage pouches to help keep your inventory tidy. In many modpacks, loot tables can flood players with emeralds, and that clutter adds up fast.

The mod is designed to be simple, practical, and easy to drop into any pack.

• Store large amounts of emeralds inside a dedicated pouch
• Keep your inventory cleaner while still carrying your currency with you
• Open the first pouch in your inventory with a keybind for quick access
• Shift + Right-click a pouch in hand to open it directly
• Optionally compact emeralds automatically as they enter the pouch
• When auto-pickup is enabled, emeralds will prioritize filling the first pouch found, then continue to the next one
• Trade directly with villagers using emeralds stored inside your pouch(es)

While Emerald Pouch takes some visual inspiration from vanilla bundles, it is not meant to be restricted by the same design. Each slot functions as a proper emerald storage slot and can hold full stacks, making the mod especially useful in packs where emeralds are much more common.

Realistically, you will probably only need one pouch in a normal playthrough, but nothing is stopping you from filling your inventory with them anyway. Or collecting one of every colour just because you can :D

Features

Current functionality includes:

• Dedicated emerald pouch items in multiple colour variants, with two different sizes
• Custom pouch container screens
• Shift + right-click in either hand to open
• Right-click can quickly equip to a supported belt/accessory slot
• Inventory keybind access with N by default
• Automatic emerald intake toggle
• Optional instant compaction toggle
• Sequential pouch filling when multiple pouches are present
• Full villager trading support with pouch-backed emerald payment
• Automatic emerald block breakdown during trades when needed
• Automatic return of unused pouch-sourced emeralds when closing the merchant screen

Trading is fully supported. When using the villager trading screen, selecting a trade will automatically pull emeralds from your pouch(es) into the payment slots as needed. If there are not enough loose emeralds available, stored emerald blocks can be broken down automatically to complete the cost.

A normal click will perform a single trade and fill the emerald slots once. Shift-clicking the result will perform the trade and then automatically refill the emerald slots from your pouch, making it easy to repeat the same trade continuously.

When the merchant screen is closed, any leftover emeralds that originally came from a pouch are deposited back into it automatically. A trade session tracks how many emeralds came from your pouches versus your regular inventory, so only pouch-sourced emeralds are returned.

When choosing where emeralds are pulled from, Emerald Pouch prioritizes equipped pouches first (Accessories/Curios belt slots), then offhand, then inventory pouches. Loose emeralds are always used before emerald blocks are broken down.

Default keybinds

• Open Emerald Pouch - N
  • Opens the first pouch found in your inventory
  • If Accessories or Curios is installed, it will prioritize an equipped belt-slot pouch first

Controls

• Right-click with pouch in hand
  • Equips/swaps it into a supported belt/accessory slot if Accessories, Curios, or Trinkets is installed
  • Falls back to opening the pouch directly when no supported equip slot is available
• Shift + Right-click with pouch in hand
  • Opens that pouch directly

From the pouch screen, you can manage stored emeralds through a container UI.
