Better With Bags v1.0.1

🌐 Multiplayer Support

The mod now works on dedicated servers. Previously it only worked in singleplayer and opening any backpack GUI on a server would crash the game. Everything has been rewritten to work properly in multiplayer.

• Server-side backpack GUIs - Opening backpacks (held or placed) now works correctly on dedicated servers
• Inventory sync - Changes made inside a held backpack are properly saved when you close the GUI
• Placed backpack sync - Other players on the server can see the correct backpack tier and contents

😴 Bedroll

A new portable sleeping item for travelers. Attach it to your backpack and skip the night anywhere without changing your spawn point.

• Bedroll item - Can be placed in the world or attached to a backpack
• Attachment slot - Large, Reinforced, and Nether backpacks gain an attachment slot in both the inventory panel and standalone backpack GUI
• Sleep without spawn - Sleeping in a bedroll skips the night but keeps your original respawn point
• Visible on your back - Attached bedroll renders on the player model beneath the backpack
• Standalone placement - Can also be placed as its own block in the world

🎒 Per-Tier Placed Blocks

Placed backpacks are no longer a single generic block. Each tier is now its own block with a proper name and correct drops.

• Separate block per tier - Small, Medium, Large, Reinforced, and Nether each have their own placed block
• Correct drops - Breaking a placed backpack now drops the right tier instead of always dropping a Small Satchel
• Named blocks - Each placed block has its own name (e.g. "Placed Reinforced Traveler's Pack")

🎨 3D Creative Tab Models

Placed backpack and bedroll blocks now show as proper 3D models in the creative inventory instead of being invisible.

✨ Improvements

• Pickup sound - Picking up a placed backpack with Shift+Right Click now plays the item pickup sound
• Inventory overflow safety - If your inventory is full when picking up a placed backpack, the item drops on the ground instead of being lost
• Creative mode slot sync - Backpack extension panel in creative mode now detects when you equip or swap backpacks
• Updated GUI textures - Extension panel and standalone backpack GUI updated with attachment slot area

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed items being deleted on shift-click - Shift-clicking partial stacks into the backpack no longer deletes items. Merging a held stack with a backpack slot also works correctly now
• Fixed hardcoded GUI pixels - The area between the inventory and backpack extension panel is no longer drawn with hardcoded colors. It's fully texture-based now so texture packs can properly reskin it
• Fixed crash on startup - Backpack item registration no longer causes a crash due to an internal Java issue
• Fixed extension panel overlap - Backpack inventory panel no longer visually clips with the main inventory

🔧 Technical

• Server-side container system via BagScreens interface and PacketContainerOpen
• New mixins: PlayerMixinBagScreens, PlayerServerMixinBagScreens, PlayerLocalMixinBagScreens, PacketHandlerClientMixinBackpack, SlotSetMixin, PlayerAccessor
• New containers: BackpackInventoryContainer, WornBackpackContainer, SlotAttachment, SlotAttachmentBlock, SlotBackpackAttachment
• Screen IDs: BACKPACK_SCREEN_ID = 20, BACKPACK_BLOCK_SCREEN_ID = 21
• New mod icon
