Set Held Slot

Play 0x69, server → client.

play · 0x69 · clientbound (server → client)

Sets the selected hotbar slot. The server sends it on join and when it changes the selected slot, for example via /item or when a client-selected slot is rejected. The client switches the hotbar selection.

Sent by the server, read by the client. Listen for it with client.on("SetHeldSlot", (data) => …) on the receiving side.
