Description

Magnet

Tired of chasing dropped items around your world? Magnet adds a craftable, upgradeable Magnet that attracts nearby items and experience directly to you, making mining, farming and general exploration much smoother without feeling overpowered.

The Magnet can be upgraded through six levels, increasing its attraction range, and also features a powerful Focus Mode for pulling distant entities toward you.


Features

Item & XP Attraction

Simply hold the Magnet in either your main hand or off-hand to attract:

  • Dropped items
  • Experience orbs

Items accelerate naturally toward you rather than teleporting, creating a smooth magnetic effect.

The attraction works through walls, making it perfect for mining, cave exploration and large farms.


Upgrade System

Craft the base Magnet, then upgrade it by surrounding it with materials in a crafting table.

Upgrade path:

  • Level I
  • Level II – Copper
  • Level III – Iron
  • Level IV – Gold
  • Level V – Diamond
  • Level VI – Netherite Scrap

Higher levels increase both the collection radius and the power of Focus Mode.


Focus Mode

Hold right-click with the Magnet to enter Focus Mode.

While active:

  • The camera zooms in slightly.
  • Movement slows like drawing a bow.
  • The first entity you aim at becomes locked.
  • The target remains locked until you release right-click.

Focus Mode can pull:

  • Mobs
  • Animals
  • Villagers
  • Boats
  • Minecarts
  • Dropped items
  • Experience orbs

Living entities are highlighted with a glowing outline while targeted.

Items are pulled more strongly than living creatures to keep gameplay balanced.


Armour Stand Support

Give a Magnet to an armour stand by right-clicking it.

The armour stand will continuously attract nearby dropped items, making it perfect for:

  • Crop farms
  • Mob farms
  • Item collection systems
  • Hopper collection setups

Sneak-right-click with an empty hand to retrieve the Magnet.


Crafting

Craft the base Magnet using:

  • 1 Lodestone
  • 4 Diamonds
  • 2 Iron Ingots
  • 2 Redstone

Upgrade it using progressively rarer materials to unlock stronger attraction.


Compatibility

  • Fabric
  • Minecraft 1.21.10

Design Philosophy

Magnet is designed to reduce tedious item collection without replacing normal gameplay.

It won't mine blocks, automatically loot containers, or teleport items instantly. Instead, it provides a smooth and satisfying magnetic pull that feels natural while still requiring you to be nearby.

Whether you're mining deep underground, harvesting massive crop fields, or building automatic farms, Magnet helps keep your inventory full instead of leaving items scattered across the ground.


Notes

  • Works in both singleplayer and multiplayer.
  • No configuration required.
  • Fully survival-friendly.
  • Supports all six Magnet upgrade levels.
  • Armour stand collectors require no power or fuel.
