Pickup Control
Pickup Control gives every player an independent, server-authoritative automatic item pickup filter. Blocked drops stay on the ground, remain available to other players, and are never deleted or reserved.
Features
- Blacklist and whitelist modes
- Pick up only item types already present in your inventory
- Configurable junk-item mode using item IDs and Minecraft item tags
- Four independent profiles: Normal, Mine, Building, and Farm
- Searchable UI backed by the full Minecraft item registry, including modded items
- Hold a separate key to manually collect a normally blocked drop
- Per-player settings persist across relogs and server restarts
- Commands: /pickupcontrol enable, disable, profile, and clear
- English and Russian localization
The server makes every final pickup decision. Client packets can only change validated filter settings and never create, delete, or move items.
