VCONTAINER

Overview

VContainer is a virtual storage plugin. Players get a personal storage menu where they can keep items outside their normal inventory, while admins can manage storage blocks, backups, and database storage.

Start Here

  • Give players permission to use /container.
  • Open the container with /container and test depositing and withdrawing items.
  • Use storage blocks only after the basic container flow works.
  • Set up the database backend before running the plugin on a production server.

Core Purpose

VContainer stores player-owned item collections outside the normal inventory. Players can open a paginated menu, deposit items, withdraw items, sort the display, and use storage blocks as physical access points in the world.

The plugin is built for servers that want a configurable storage layer without forcing every interaction through text commands.

Player Flow

  • Players open /container.
  • Inventory clicks deposit items when deposit is enabled.
