Item Magnet / Loot Magnet

A Magnet item, crafted with 1 netherite ingot, 2 iron ingots, and 2 gold blocks. You can right-click with it to increase your item pick-up range significantly (if possible, you can also select how big you want that radius to be).

The purpose of this item is to make it easier for you to collect plenty of stuff and get it in your inventory, like a bunch of leaves or sand that you need for that mega-build, to get your stuff back after you died or anything else you might need.

This item is not meant to replace the Allay, because you are supposed to take it with you, its range is not as good, and can't pick up one specific item type, but it's more convenient, can be safely stored, and can be turned on and off anytime you want. For example:

You can tell Allays to drop it at a noteblock, but with the magnet, you can only pick them up when you are using the Magnet and only pull them to you.

It will only attract items, not entities, not projectiles, not players. Only items. And can only be used by players, not armor stands or dispensers.

The crafting recipe is would be 2 iron ingots in the top left and top right (since iron is ferromagnetic and is similar to the gray ends of a magnet 🧲 ), two gold blocks (to make it more valuable), and 1 netherite ingot, as this precious metal has shown actual magnetic properties in Minecraft, being able to affect compasses.

This item is a Quality of Life improvement for mid to late-game players.
