✅ All container mods - works with modded inventories
✅ AE / Refined Storage Work, No Favorites are allowed in the systems though.
⚠️ NOT compatible with TIA (Tiny Item Animations) - use our EPA system instead!
I do have some old features in the code at the moment i will remove them at a later date, please note they can be disabled in the main mod menu -> admin menu -> features -> disabled by default.

📋 Requirements
NeoForge (Minecraft 1.21.1)
Built it on NeoForge 21.1.193, Have been Tested on Latest Verison with no issues.
No other dependencies!
Incompatiblities:
TIA (Tiny Item Animations) -> Added Built in CustomAlternative inside config setting menu
Sophistocated Backpacks have a tooltip, they use a custom way of doing menus for their backpacks, so favoriting items don't work in backpacks or if you have a backpack open.

Otherwise no other mod conflicts

Press LeftAlt to open the settings menu
Customize sounds, icons, effects, and more!

Made with ❤️ by a first time modder who really, really hates losing items, really wanted to lock curios in my inventory, and nothing existed for NeoForge I decided to make one myself.
