What is Multiverse-Inventories?

Multiverse-Inventories is a plugin that allows groups of worlds to have their own set of inventories/stats for each player. Multiverse-Inventories is a module for Multiverse-Core, which means you MUST be running Multiverse-Core to use Multiverse-Inventories. See the getting started guide for a very brief overview!

Why is it not working?

Chances are it appears to be not working because you have given yourself '*' permission which causes you to automatically have bypass permissions . If this is not the case, come chat with us on Discord or open an issue .

What all can be shared?

Multiverse-Inventories can share the following things among worlds in a world group:

  • Inventory contents (inventory_contents)
  • Off-hand item (off_hand)
  • Armor (armor_contents)
  • Ender chest (ender_chest)
  • Health / max health (hit_points, max_hit_points)
  • Hunger, saturation, exhaustion (food_level, saturation, exhaustion)
  • Experience — level, XP bar, total XP (xp, lvl, total_xp)
  • Potion effects (potion_effects)
  • Bed spawn location (bed_spawn)
  • Remaining and maximum air (remaining_air, maximum_air)
  • Fall distance and fire ticks (fall_distance, fire_ticks)

There are also optional shares that must be explicitly enabled with /mvinv toggle <sharename> before they have any effect: economy, last_location, recipes, advancements, and game_statistics.

Use all to share everything, or list individual share names. For the full reference including shorthand keywords, see the Shares List .

When something is shared it is the same across all worlds in the group. Anything not listed in a group's shares will be separate per world.

What is a World Group?

A "World Group" is a collection of worlds with a specified set of shares. Everything a world group shares will be the same for all worlds in the world group. Any worlds on your server not in a world group are treated as if they are in a world group alone (Which means they will have their own inventories/stats for each player!).

How do I create a World Group?

After installing, from in-game, use the create-group command. For example, to create a group called smpgroup containing smp and smp_nether sharing everything:

/mvinv create-group smpgroup smp,smp_nether all
null

See the Basic Usage guide for a full walkthrough.

How do I make worlds NOT share stuff?

Anything sharable that is not listed in a group will not be shared between the worlds in that group. If you want a world that does not share anything with any other world, simply do not put it into a group. To rephrase, any world not in a group will have its own set of inventories/stats for each player.

Is there a way admins can ignore the effects of this plugin?

Yes! There are permissions available of this. Please refer to the list of permissions .

Can I export playerdata back to a vanilla world?

Short answer: It is currently not possible. Multiverse-Inventories stores all its data in its own plugin folder and does not touch the vanilla playerdata directly at all. The only way is to install Multiverse-Inventories in the other server you are transferring your world to and copy over the Multiverse-Inventories plugin folder contents as well.
