Additionals
by Ormods
Additionals, a Forge utility for 1.20.1, adds debugging content that Minecraft itself does not include, such as a tick checker, help features and entity death announcements.
What it does
Additionals targets server owners and mod developers who need to watch what a running game is doing. Its tick checker reports how long server ticks take, which helps find slow code. Help features list the available commands and their use, so an operator does not have to look them up in another source. Entity death announcements post a message when a tracked entity dies, which makes it easier to follow fights and events on a server.
The mod includes a stop announcement that is sent to players shortly before the server shuts down, giving them time to save and log off. Command Utility is an optional dependency; installing it extends the command set and is not needed for the core features to work. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Only the 1.20.1 Forge build is published, with the 0.0.1 file dated 2024-08-10 as the current release.
The code is covered by All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source and its source may not be redistributed or modified without permission from the author, Ormods.

Who it’s for: Server administrators and modpack makers who want built-in diagnostics and shutdown notices. Players on a server that runs the mod see the announcements in chat.
How it compares
Totem Announcer is server-side only, with All rights reserved and Forge files for 1.20.1, so players need nothing installed. Administrator Panel is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1 and runs on client and server, but it is a control panel rather than a set of debugging tools. Saros Mod Checker is server-side only and works on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1, so it covers a different loader choice.
