On Fabric 1.20.1, users of Sodium may need to install Indium, or models will look weird
On Neoforge, enable the "NeoForge Light Pipeline" in Mods -> NeoForge -> Client settings -> NeoForge Light Pipeline
Packages adds packages, which can hold 8 stacks of one item.
- Construct Packages out of any solid block.
- Insert and remove items by clicking the front face. No need to use an empty hand.
- Hold CTRL to completely fill or empty a Package with one click.
- Interact with Packages in your inventory too, just like a Bundle.
- Make a package "sticky" so it won't forget its contents when empty.
The catch: Packages only hold 8 stacks. There are no storage upgrades. The size is not configurable. But packages can nest inside each other, and even stack when they contain the same contents!
Other than their size, Packages behave like cheap shulker boxes. Measure with a comparator, crush with a piston, and dispense with a dispenser; shulker box loader and unloader designs work great on Packages.

Credits
Kat came up with the Package Crafter model, unascribed came up with the idea for bundle interactions.

Packages v2026.08.29 for Minecraft 1.21.1
I rewrote the ENTIRE build system; all of my mods are now built with a new build pipeline that's faster and clearer than before. Kinda proud of it but I also want to push out a build to make extra sure nothing has broken in the meantime.

Packages v2026.08.07 for Minecraft 1.21.1
- (1.21.1) Fix crash when putting an enchanted item in a package. (I would like to get off Mr. Codec's Wild Ride.)
- (1.21.1) Tweak package style networking code. Marginally more efficient (doesn't serialize the whole block ID every time)
