Advancements Tracker
by Kaworru
Advancements Tracker is a Forge client mod that keeps a list of selected advancements and shows their progress in an overlay while the player plays.
What it does
The mod adds an overview screen, opened with CTRL + L, that lists the current advancements so the player can pick one to track. Clicking an advancement in the overview shows its completed and missing criteria along with its rewards. Sorting and filtering options help the player find advancements by how much effort they still need.
A small widget, toggled with ALT + L, displays the progress of the tracked advancements during play. Tracked advancements are saved in the client settings file and can be adjusted there. The list is stored per server, so each server keeps its own set, while single-player worlds share one list. The mod runs on the client only, so it works on multiplayer servers without being installed there.
Criteria that appear as raw identifiers in vanilla are replaced by readable names through language-file translations. Translations are read from the mod's language files, and an untranslated criterion is logged in the client log so it can be added. The mod is available for Forge and NeoForge, and is open source under the MIT License.
