✋ Shift2Offhand
A tiny Quality-of-Life Minecraft mod that lets you shift crafted items directly into your offhand.
Minecraft normally prevents shift-clicking crafted items into the offhand when your inventory is full — even if the offhand already contains the same item.
Shift2Offhand fixes this small but annoying limitation.
✨ Features
- 📦 Shift-click crafted items into your offhand
- 🧰 Works even when your inventory is completely full
- 🔄 Automatically merges crafted items with the stack in your offhand
- 🎯 Only activates when it actually makes sense
⚙️ How It Works
This behavior only triggers if the same item is already in your offhand.
Example
- Your offhand contains 10 Oak Planks
- Your inventory is completely full
- You craft Oak Planks from logs
- You shift-click the crafting result
➡ The crafted planks will merge directly into the offhand stack.
📉 Stack Overflow Behavior
If the crafted items exceed the maximum stack size:
- The offhand stack will fill up to 64 items
- Any remaining items will be dropped on the ground
This ensures:
- ❌ No item loss
- ❌ No blocked crafting
- ✔ Consistent Minecraft behavior
🎯 Scope
Shift2Offhand intentionally keeps things simple and lightweight:
- ✔ Only affects shift-clicking from the player's 2×2 crafting grid
- ✔ Does not modify normal inventory mechanics
- ✔ Minimal performance impact
💡 Why This Mod?
Because if the item is already in your offhand, Minecraft should simply stack it there — even when your inventory is full.
Small fix. Big convenience.
