Minecraft plugin Multiverse-Inventories

🔌 About Multiverse-Inventories

Multiverse-Inventories is a Minecraft plugin add-on for Multiverse Core that manages player inventories and related data on a per-world or per-group basis. It lets server administrators separate or share specific player data (inventories, enderchest, experience, health, hunger, potion effects, etc.) between worlds, enabling mixed gamemode setups within a single server instance.

🎯 Purpose

The plugin solves the problem of unwanted cross-world data leakage on multi-world servers: it allows admins to group worlds and configure which player data is shared or kept separate. This is useful when running worlds with different rules or gamemodes (for example a creative build world and a survival world) without using separate server instances or proxy systems.

⚙️ Features

• Per-world and per-group inventories and data separation.
• Configurable "shares" to control exactly which data is shared between worlds (examples include inventory, enderchest, experience, health, hunger, potion-effects, last-location).
• Commands for creating and managing groups and their shares.
• Utilities for importing or migrating player data and for bulk editing stored inventory data (documented in the official usage pages).
• Creates default configuration and a default group on first run to match vanilla world grouping behavior.

🧩 Who It Is For

• Server owners running multiple worlds on a single server who need distinct player inventories or selective sharing between worlds.
• Survival, SMP, creative-build, and minigame server setups that require world-specific player state.
• Administrators who already use Multiverse Core and want inventory/group management as an add-on.

🏗️ Example Use Cases

• Keep creative and survival inventories separate while allowing travel between those worlds.
• Create a group of PvP arenas that share only health and experience but keep inventories separate from the main world.
• Migrate player inventories from another plugin or bulk-edit stored inventory records using the documented tools.

⌨️ Commands

(Note: these commands are documented in the official usage pages; permission nodes are listed in the plugin reference if needed.)

⚙️ Installation

📥 Setup

• Ensure you have Multiverse-Core installed before adding Multiverse-Inventories.
• Download the plugin JAR from the project's official release/download page.
• Place the JAR in your server plugins/ directory and start the server.
• On first run the plugin will create default configuration and a default group; check console logs to confirm it loaded correctly.

📦 Dependencies

• Multiverse-Core (required).

🧠 Technical Notes

• Multiverse-Inventories is distributed with a BSD-3-Clause license.
• The project maintains source and issue tracking on its public repository; official documentation includes configuration reference, command usage, permissions list, and migration/import guides.
• Changes to groups and shares can overwrite or relocate stored player data; the official documentation warns to back up server data before making large configuration changes.

🤝 When This Plugin Is Useful

If you run multiple worlds under one server instance and need controlled separation or sharing of player inventories and related state, Multiverse-Inventories provides group-based configuration and tools to manage that data without running separate servers.
