Adventure and RPG API and Library Cosmetic Storage Utility & QoL

Vanguard's Kit is a powerful Forge modding utility designed to expand Minecraft's combat and inventory systems. It allows developers to create custom player inventory slots with full syncing, saving, and GUI support—perfect for gear-based mods, ability systems, and RPG mechanics.

Whether you're building a mythological powers mod or a tactical combat overhaul, Vanguard's Kit gives you some of the tools to make it seamless.


Features

  • Custom Inventory Slots API
    Easily register new inventory slots (relics, abilities, accessories, etc.) using Vanguard’s synced container system.

  • Combat Integration
    Hook into Minecraft’s combat flow to create custom effects, ability triggers, and combat mechanics.

  • Full Sync Between Client & Server
    No more ghost items or duplication bugs—Vanguard's Kit handles the hard parts of syncing slot data across sides.

  • Persistent & Capability-Backed
    Each player’s extra inventory is safely stored and loaded using Forge capabilities, with optional syncing to UIs.

  • Creative & Survival Mode Support
    Vanguard's Kit respects game modes and handles inventory logic for both, with tools to detect context-sensitive behavior.

  • GUI Integration Ready
    Display custom slots in the inventory beside armor, or anywhere you want with full container/screen support.


For Developers

Vanguard's Kit is designed to be developer-first. Register your own slot types, containers, or capability integrations.
