# Kit slots

> Give players more than nine kit slots with kits.max-slots, up to 99.

```yaml config.yml theme={null}
kits:
  max-slots: 9
```

| Key              | Type    | Default |                                                                                                                                                                                            |
| ---------------- | ------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `kits.max-slots` | integer | `9`     | Kit slots per player, **1 to 99**. A value outside that range is <Tooltip tip="A number below 1 or above 99 is pulled back to the nearest allowed value.">clamped</Tooltip>, not rejected. |

<Warning>
  Changing `kits.max-slots` needs a **full server restart**. A <Tooltip tip="Running /reload instead of stopping and starting the server.">reload</Tooltip> does not register the new commands.
</Warning>

## What changes when you raise it

| Above nine slots | Effect                                                            |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| The `/kit` menu  | Splits into pages with next and previous buttons                  |
| Commands         | `/k10` to `/k<max>` and `/ec10` to `/ec<max>` register at startup |

Write the long form if another plugin has taken the same command name:

```bash theme={null}
/k12
/perplayerkit:k12   # the same command, no ambiguity
```

## Before you change it

|                         |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Lowering the value      | Hides kits, does not delete them. A kit in slot 15 stays in the database and returns when you raise `kits.max-slots`. [`/purgeitem`](/data/purge-items) always scans all 99 slots, so a banned item cannot hide in a disabled slot |
| Servers on one database | All need the same `kits.max-slots`. A kit in slot 12 does not exist on a server that allows 9                                                                                                                                      |
| Stored data             | Each slot is one saved inventory: 99 slots is up to 198 per player. Watch this on SQLite or YAML with many players                                                                                                                 |
