APTweaks: Player (11.x Classic)

by Kaworru

APTweaks: Player (11.x Classic) is a server-side Forge and NeoForge module that adjusts how players log in and fight, and it can protect new or child players.

What it does

Player module of the APTweaks 11.x Classic line. Its job is limited to the player side: a login safety window keeps newly joined players shielded until they interact with the world, and the optional child and novice adjustments reduce incoming damage while tweaking outgoing attack power. Early damage spikes that a new player would otherwise meet are smoothed out, and a gentler start can be switched on for players who want one.

The module needs APTweaks: Core (11.x Classic) to run. Its optional companions are APTweaks: Gamerules, APTweaks: Items and APTweaks: Spawn, each handling a different area. Only clients stay untouched, so players join without installing anything, and the server can pick only the modules it wants. Behaviour is set through config files, and a built-in debug output shows what the optimizer is doing. The code is MIT licensed and open source, with a public source repository and issue tracker.

Key features

  1. Login safety window

    Newly joined players stay protected until they interact with the world, reducing early losses for beginners.

  2. Child and novice adjustments

    Optional tweaks reduce incoming damage and adjust outgoing attack power for child and novice players.

  3. Config-driven behaviour

    Options are set through configuration files, so server owners decide how much of the player module is active.

  4. Built-in debug information

    A debug output reports what the optimizer is doing, which helps when tuning the settings.
