TrashSlot Core Mechanics

The TrashSlot mod functions as a virtual disposal unit within the GUI. Unlike standard inventory slots, the Trash Slot does not store items permanently but acts as a gateway for deletion.

Item Disposal Methods

There are three primary ways to interact with the Trash Slot:

1. Manual Drag: Click an item or stack to pick it up, then click the Trash Slot to delete it
2. Shift-Clicking: While the inventory is open, players can Shift-Click items directly into the Trash Slot for rapid disposal
3. Keybind Deletion: Hovering the mouse over an item in any inventory and pressing the designated 'Delete' key will instantly move that item to the Trash Slot

The Recovery Buffer

The Trash Slot maintains a single-item memory buffer. When an item is moved to the slot, it is not immediately erased from the game's memory. Instead, it sits in the slot until: * A new item is placed into the Trash Slot (overwriting the previous one). * The inventory GUI is closed (depending on configuration settings). * The player manually clears the slot.

This allows players to click the Trash Slot to retrieve the last discarded item if a mistake was made.
