## Backpacks Updated to version 26
### Backpacks Sounds!
### No more inventory switch
Minor changes:
- Backpacks will automatically update on opening
- Content preview now relies on the container component, alternatives to the default previews were removed.
- Each backpack now has its unique id. Copy pasting a backpack item from a world to another will trigger a Id change.
### Backpacks Sounds!
- Backpacks now make sounds when equipped, rested, colored etc.
### No more inventory switch
- Thanks to the unique id system, dropping a backpack while open will result in the backpack coming back to the player offhand. The inventory switch workaround is still present but meant to never trigger.

- Datapack icon changed to match the Modrinth one
- Recipes updated. The lore option toggle is now removed.
