❓ FAQ & Tips
-
Can I lock multiple slots at once?
-
Absolutely—just Alt + Click each slot you need to safeguard.
-
What about auto-sort mods?
-
SlotShield blocks them from touching locked slots, so your precious gear stays exactly where you left it.
-
Is it server-side or client-side?
-
Client-side only! No special server setup required.
-
Keybind conflicts?
-
If Alt is already taken, you can remap the modifier in Minecraft’s Controls menu. Future ### updates may allow custom modifiers!
