AutoPickup

AutoPickup is a highly configurable server-side mod that automates the collection of items and experience orbs. It features session tracking, a multi-tier permission system, and extensive mod compatibility to ensure drops are attributed to the correct players, even when using high-speed mining mods or engaging in group combat.

✨ Features

Core Functionality

• 🎒 Seamless Collection: Items from broken blocks and mob kills are instantly added to your inventory
• ⭐ Smart Experience Handling: Experience is cached and applied after a short delay, ensuring tools take durability damage before Mending activates
• 🚀 Lag-Free: Prevents item and experience orb entities from spawning, reducing server load
• 📦 Overflow Protection: If your inventory is full, items safely drop at your feet
• 🔧 Granular Control: Toggle individual features independently via commands or config GUI

Advanced Features

• 👥 Mob Loot Splitting: Share mob drops and XP with nearby players who participated in the kill
• 🎮 Per-Player Permissions: Server admins can override settings for specific players
• 💾 Client Profiles: Automatic per-server/world configuration profiles for seamless server switching
• 🔌 Extensive Mod Compatibility: Works automatically with VeinMiner, TreeHarvester, Traveler's Backpack, FallingTree, Panda's Falling Trees and more

⚙️ Configuration

AutoPickup uses a flexible three-tier permission system:

1. Server Defaults - Global fallback settings
2. Admin Overrides - Per-player forced settings (highest priority)
3. Client Preferences - Individual player choices (only if server allows)

🖥️ Configuration Menu (Client)

You can configure your personal preferences via the menu. Use Mod Menu for a easy access on Fabric. Otherwise, use /autopickup gui

Settings available:

• Master Toggle
• Block Item Pickup
• Block Experience Pickup
• Mob Loot Pickup
• Mob Experience Pickup
• Split Mob Loot (share drops with nearby attackers)
• Split Mob XP (share experience with nearby attackers)

Note: Your client settings only apply if the server admin has enabled the corresponding "Allow" setting for that feature.

📜 Commands (Server Admin)

Server operators (OP Level 2+) can manage global defaults and player overrides using /autopickup.

Menu Access

Global Configuration

Client Control Allowances

These commands determine whether players can override server defaults with their client settings.

Per-Player Overrides

Force specific settings for individual players (overrides both server defaults and client preferences).

Use default to remove a specific override while keeping others.

}

Optional But Recommended Client Dependencies

• Mod Menu - Access config screen in-game
• YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) - Required for YACL config GUI (Vanilla GUI fallback)

✅ Compatibility

AutoPickup hooks into core Minecraft mechanics and works seamlessly with most mods out of the box.

🔧 Explicitly Supported Mods

📋 Technical Details

AutoPickup intercepts drops at these injection points:

• Block.dropResources() - Primary block drop handling
• ServerLevel.addFreshEntity() - Item entity spawning and falling-block entity tracking (FallingTree and any mod that spawns drops directly)
• LivingEntity.dropFromLootTable() - Mob loot generation
• LivingEntity.dropExperience() - Mob XP orbs
• Block.popExperience() - Block XP orbs
• ExperienceOrb.award() - Captures XP spawned directly by block-breaking mods (e.g. VeinMiner)
• ServerPlayerGameMode.useItemOn() - Right-click harvesting (sweet berries, jukebox disc ejection, crops via the RightClickHarvest mod, etc.)
• ItemFrame.hurt() / hurtServer() - Items removed from item frames by left-clicking
• Mob.interact() / ShearsItem.interactLivingEntity() - Shearing drops (wool, snow golem pumpkins, mooshroom mushrooms)
• BrushableBlockEntity.dropContent() - Brushing suspicious sand/gravel
• LivingEntity.dropFromEntityInteractLootTable() - Brushing armadillos for scutes

This broad compatibility means most mods work automatically without explicit support.

🎮 Mob Loot Splitting

When Split Mob Loot or Split Mob XP is enabled, rewards from mob kills are shared among participants:

How It Works

1. Damage Tracking: The mod tracks the last 10 unique players who damaged each mob
2. Eligibility Check: On mob death, only players who:
   • Are online and not spectating
   • Have Master enabled
   • Have the specific Mob Pickup feature enabled
   • Have the specific Split feature enabled
   • Are in the same world as the killer
3. Distribution:
   • Items are split evenly; the killer receives any remainder
   • Experience is split evenly; the killer receives any remainder
   • Items that don't fit in inventories are dropped at the mob's location

Example

Player A (killer), B, and C all damaged a zombie. Settings:

• Player A: Master ✅, Mob Loot ✅, Split Mob Loot ✅
• Player B: Master ✅, Mob Loot ✅, Split Mob Loot ✅
• Player C: Master ✅, Mob Loot ✅, Split Mob Loot ❌

Result: Only A and B receive split loot. Player C gets nothing because they disabled splitting.

👩‍💻 Developer API

Adding as a Dependency

Gradle:

dependencies {
   compileOnly(files("libs/autopickup-platform-x.x.x.jar"))
}

Using the API

import com.lukarbonite.autopickup.AutoPickupApi;

public class QuestRewards {

   public void giveReward(Player player, List<ItemStack> items, int xp) {
      if (!isModLoaded("autopickup")) {
         // Fallback: manual drops
         items.forEach(stack -> player.dropItem(stack, false));
         player.addExperience(xp);
         return;
      }

      // AutoPickup handles:
      // - Inventory insertion
      // - Traveler's Backpack routing
      // - Config checks (Master, Blocks, etc.)
      List<ItemStack> remaining = AutoPickupApi.tryPickup(player, items);

      // Drop items that didn't fit
      remaining.forEach(stack -> player.dropItem(stack, false));

      // AutoPickup handles:
      // - Mending calculations
      // - Config checks
      AutoPickupApi.tryPickupBlockExperience(player, xp);
   }

   // For mob-related rewards
   public void giveMobReward(Player player, List<ItemStack> loot, int xp) {
      List<ItemStack> remaining = AutoPickupApi.tryPickupFromMob(player, loot);
      remaining.forEach(stack -> player.dropItem(stack, false));

      AutoPickupApi.tryPickupMobExperience(player, xp);
   }
}

📋 Technical Details

AutoPickup intercepts drops at these injection points:

• Block.dropResources() - Primary block drop handling
• ServerPlayerGameMode.destroyBlock() - Tracks the player's own block break and marks their break as "on the stack," so drops caused synchronously by that break (chain-mining, plant-column collapse) are attributed while independent farm drops are not
• Level.destroyBlock() - Non-player breaks from mods/vanilla (chain-miners like LiteMiner, and bamboo/sugarcane/cactus columns collapsing after their base is broken)
• ServerLevel.addFreshEntity() - Item entity spawning and falling-block entity tracking (FallingTree and any mod that spawns drops directly)
• LivingEntity.dropFromLootTable() - Mob loot generation
• LivingEntity.dropExperience() - Mob XP orbs
• Block.popExperience() - Block XP orbs
• ExperienceOrb.award() - Captures XP spawned directly by block-breaking mods (e.g. VeinMiner)
