Minecraft – There is an item stuck in the inventory in Minecraft!

minecraft-java-editionminecraft-java-edition-server

There is an Item in my inventory that stays in it's place and will not move no matter what. I am on a server so there is very little I can do about it. I am in creative mode. If I try to use the hotbar slot that it is in, I can't break blocks or interact with anything… can someone help me!?!?

Is this a craftbukkit server with plugins? Sometimes, servers will pin a certain item to an inventory slot, so that those items can be used for special purposes. Since you mentioned that you are on a server, this is the only thing that I can think of.

If you haven't already, you can also try dying, as well as re-logging.

The Command Block Structure

In the top left command block: fill ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ wool 14
In the bottom left command block: fill ~ ~1 ~ ~ ~1 ~ redstone_block
In the center-left command block: testforblocks ~ ~-1 ~ ~ ~-1 ~ [x2] [y2] [z2] where [x2] [y2] and [z2] are the coordinates of the target dropper.

The dropper on the top is completely unnecessary and is only there because I used this in a tutorial. In the far right command block would be the command you want executed when the two droppers match.

Minecraft Java Edition – How to Clear One Item in a Specific Hotbar Slot

I figured it out with MBraedley's help. First I have to tag the player with "redstone".

tag @a[nbt={Inventory:[{Slot:-106b,id:"minecraft:redstone"}]}] add redstone

Then I need to use the execute with store to see how many redstones I have...

execute as @a[tag=redstone] store result score @s check1 run clear @s redstone 0

Then I have to use replaceitem to get rid of all the redstones in my offhand...

replaceitem entity @a[tag=redstone] weapon.offhand air

Then I have to subtract my second score by my first score, and the resulting negative number will by how many redstones I got rid of times -1.

execute as @a[tag=redstone] store result score @s check2 run clear @s redstone 0

scoreboard players operation @a[tag=redstone] check2 -= @s check1

Then I just remove the redstone tag. I had to use a tag because there are commands that come after when I clear the redstones from my offhand so I couldn't detect the player using -nbt=...].

Thanks again MBraedley!

EDIT: Just realized that last scoreboard command only finds the correct number of used redstones for some equations like 1 - 2, but not for some like 1 - 4, which would suggest I used 3. The solution is to deplete both scores of the player until one score is 0, and the other will be the answer times 1. To do that, remove the player of score check1 64 if his score is 64 or above (start at 64 because one cannot have more than 64 items in his hotbar), then remove 32 if he has above 32, and so on, and for each removal you remove the same amount for check2.
