TrashSlot in All the Mods 11

TrashSlot adds a draggable trash slot to your inventory screens, so you can get rid of unwanted items quickly and safely. Drop an item into the slot and it's deleted, with no need to throw it on the ground.^[1]

All the Mods 11 0.8.0-beta includes TrashSlot 26.1.2.4 for NeoForge. The mod requires Balm, which must be installed alongside it.^[1][2]

What you can do with it

• Drop items into the trash slot to delete them.^[1]
• Fix mistakes: the slot keeps the last deleted item, so you can take it back out.^[1]
• Drag the slot around with the mouse to set where it sits. You can enable or disable it in nearly every screen, and pressing T toggles it.^[1]
• Press Delete to delete the item under your cursor.^[1]
• Press Shift+Delete to delete all items of the same type as the one under your cursor.^[1]

The mod is optional on clients: only the server and the players who want to use it need to install it.^[1]

TrashSlot adds a draggable trash slot to your inventory screens, so you can get rid of unwanted items quickly and safely. Good news: there is nothing to craft or unlock first. You learn the controls and you're set.^[1]

Unverified No crafting recipe or quest for TrashSlot has been confirmed in this pack, so there is no recipe to show here.

Your first minutes with it

1. Open your inventory and look for the trash slot. It shows up on inventory screens, and it can be enabled or disabled on nearly every screen.^[1]
2. Drop an item you don't need into the trash slot to delete it.^[1]
3. Made a mistake? The trash slot keeps the last deleted item, so take it back out of the slot to untrash it.^[1]
4. Don't like where it sits? Drag it around with the mouse cursor to move it.^[1]
5. Press T to toggle the trash slot on or off.^[1]

Delete keys

If you don't want to drag items around, hover over one and press Delete to delete the item under the cursor. Press Shift+Delete to delete all items of the same type as the one under the cursor.^[1]

Good to know

• The first time you toggle the trash slot off, or open a supported screen where it can be enabled, TrashSlot shows a hint telling you which key to press. These hints can be turned off in the config.^[3]
• Some items can be protected with a deny list. If you try to trash one, you'll see the message "Item cannot be trashed!"^[3]
• There is an instant deletion option that makes the slot delete items immediately, similar to Creative Mode. Whether this pack changes that setting is unverified.^[3]
• The delete keybinds can also work in creative if that option is enabled, and items deleted there are gone permanently, regardless of the instant deletion setting.^[3]
• The mod requires Balm. It is optional on clients: only the server and players who want the trash slot need to install it.^[1]

TrashSlot is a small quality-of-life mod, not a tech mod. It adds a draggable trash slot to inventory screens so you can get rid of unwanted items quickly and safely. Everything below is about how that slot behaves.^[1]

The trash slot

• Drop an item into the slot to delete it.^[1]
• The slot keeps the last deleted item, so if you trash something by mistake you can take it back out.^[1]
• You can drag the slot around with the mouse cursor to change its position, and enable or disable it on nearly every screen. Press T to toggle it.^[1]
• The mod shows hints about toggling and about the slot being locked or unlocked. The locked and unlocked hints tell you which key to press.^[3]

Delete keys

• Delete deletes the item under your mouse cursor.^[1]
• Shift+Delete deletes all items of the same type as the one under your cursor.^[1]

Options that change the behavior

The mod has several config options. The names below come from the mod's own tooltips. The pack has no config files for this mod, so I can't confirm which values it uses.^[3]

• instantDeletion makes the slot delete items instantly, similar to Creative Mode, instead of holding on to the last item.^[3]
• deletionDenyList is a comma-separated list of items in the "modid:name" format that can't be deleted. If you try to trash one, you get the message "Item cannot be trashed!"^[3]
• allowDeletionWhileTrashSlotIsInvisible lets the delete keybinds work even while the trash slot is hidden. The tooltip says this is not recommended.^[3]
• enableDeleteKeysInCreative makes the delete keybinds work in creative too. Items are deleted permanently in creative, regardless of the instantDeletion setting.^[3]
• enableHints controls the hint shown the first time the trash slot is toggled off, or can be enabled on a supported screen. Set it to false to turn the hint off.^[3]

Multiplayer and requirements

The mod requires Balm to be installed alongside it. It is optional on clients: only the server and the players who want to use it need to install it.^[1]

Unverified The pack's actual config values (whether instant deletion is on, what the deny list contains, and so on) and the default keybind for locking the trash slot could not be confirmed from the available sources.

All the Mods 11 0.8.0-beta ships TrashSlot 26.1.2.4. The mod has been in the pack since All the Mods 11 0.0.1 or earlier. There are no pack changelog entries for TrashSlot, so everything below comes from the mod's own changelogs.^[2]

Mod changelogs

• 26.1.2.4 (the version in this pack): fixed a missing language key in the Controls menu, and fixed harmless log warnings about refmaps.^[2][4]
• 26.1.2.3: fixed a crash when pressing the delete key over an invalid slot.^[5]
• 26.1.2.2: fixed the delete keybinds sometimes affecting the wrong slots, for example in Sophisticated Storage with upgraded slots.^[6]

API changes for mod developers

Version 26.1.2.1 also changed the API. It added TrashSlotAPI#getDefaultLayout and RegisterTrashSlotContainerLayoutsEvent, and fixed a NullPointerException in TrashContainerLayoutImpl#getBounds when bounds with a given id are not found.^[7]
