Pouch Perfected Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I sort my inventory?
Click the Middle Mouse Button while your inventory is open to cycle through sorting modes: alphabetical, category-based, or baseline (original order). You can sort your hotbar, main inventory, and any open container separately.
What's the storage overlay and how do I use it?
Hold Shift and Right-Click on any item in your main inventory to open a 5-slot overlay attached to that item. You can store matching item types (like different pickaxe variants) in the overlay slots to save space.
Can I put items in the storage overlay before my main stack is full?
No—the overlay only accepts extra items once the base item reaches its full stack size, even for single-item tools and armor. This prevents accidental overflow.
Will items in the storage overlay spill into chests or hoppers?
No, items in the overlay are permanently tied to your player inventory and will never transfer to external containers like chests, barrels, or hoppers.
How do I find recipes faster?
Open a crafting table or brewing stand to access the improved recipe book with better search functionality and layout options. The mod also includes a dedicated brewing guide for quick potion recipe access.
Does sorting work inside containers like chests and shulker boxes?
Yes, you can click Middle Mouse Button inside chests, barrels, hoppers, and shulker boxes to sort them using the same three sorting methods available for your inventory.
What happens if I sort my inventory while holding items?
The mod sorts items in the inventory space you're hovering over—hotbar, main inventory, and container spaces are sorted separately to keep your held items unaffected.
Can I store armor and tools with different enchantments in one overlay slot?
Yes, you can store multiple variants of the same tool or armor piece (like Silk Touch and Fortune pickaxes) in a single overlay slot once the base item is fully stacked.
Does this mod affect my game performance?
The mod is designed to be lightweight, but performance depends on your system and other mods installed. Sorting operations are instant and shouldn't cause lag.
Can I use the storage overlay while traveling or in survival mode?
Yes, the storage overlay works in survival mode and is specifically designed to help you save inventory space while traveling without needing to access external storage.
