Ever found yourself alt-tabbing to a calculator while trying to figure out how many stacks of diamonds you need for a trade? REI Search Bar Calculations Mod eliminates that hassle by embedding a fully functional calculator right inside the Roughly Enough Items search bar. Inspired by the calculator feature in Not Enough Updates (NEU), this lightweight Fabric mod lets you crunch numbers on the fly — from basic arithmetic to Minecraft-specific stack conversions — without ever leaving your game.
Key Features
- Search Bar Calculator — Type math expressions directly into the REI search bar for instant results. Supports addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division (+, -, *, /).
- Metric Prefix Support — Use shorthand like
1kor5minstead of typing out full numbers, making large calculations much faster. - Minecraft Stack Unit — Calculate using item stacks as a unit, so you can quickly convert between raw item counts and stack amounts during gameplay.
- Enchanted Item Shortcut — Use
eto represent enchanted item variants, where 1e equals 160 items — particularly handy for Hypixel SkyBlock-style economies. - /calc Command — Run calculations from anywhere using the
/calccommand, even outside of the REI interface. Works identically to the search bar calculator.
