  1. Bags
  • As a reminder, a bag is an item that can hold only one stack (usually 64 items), but it can be a mix of several different types of items. Items can be added directly into the inventory.
  • The bag can now be crafted and appears in the creative inventory without an experimental toggle.
  • The items stored in the bags are displayed in the tooltip.
    • If a bag contains up to 12 types of items, all of them will be displayed.
      • If it contains 13 or more, the first placed item types will be hidden.
  • It is now possible to select any visible item to retrieve from the bag.
    • The mouse wheel allows selecting an item, and a right-click will take it.
    • A simple right-click allows taking the first item.
    • When selecting, the bag icon shows the item peeking out of the bag.
  • Right-clicking with a bag in hand will throw the most recently placed item from the bag onto the ground.
  • The bag can now be crafted using a string on top of a piece of leather instead of 6 rabbit hides and two strings, which was too expensive.
  • The bag can now be dyed in 16 different colors.
