Supported versions & limitations

This tool uses a mathematical or browser-format model; it does not depend on a game command codec.

  • Player storage means 27 main slots plus 9 hotbar slots, excluding armor/offhand.
  • Shulker nesting is forbidden; manifests with a shulker item suppress shulker packing.

Frequently asked questions

Can shulkers contain shulkers?

No. This calculator does not model nested containers.

How are mixed materials packed?

Each item gets its own occupied slots, then those slots are assigned to containers.
