AdvancementSync
by InferusAnima
AdvancementSync shares advancement progress between players on a server, so when one player earns an advancement, others receive it as well.
What it does
Once an advancement is granted to one player on a server, the same advancement is granted to every other player on that server. A player who joins later also has the advancements already synced between players applied. The sync works with advancements from vanilla, datapacks and other mods.
Architectury API must be installed on Fabric and Forge alongside AdvancementSync. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Files cover 1.16.5 – 1.20.4 across Fabric and Forge, with 1.4 for 1.20.4 as the latest, and the code is available as source but the mod is not open source.
Key features
Shared advancement grants
An advancement earned by one player on the server is granted to all other players on that server.
Late joiners synced
Players who join after advancements were earned receive the synced progress when they enter the server.
Datapack and mod advancements
Advancements added by datapacks and other mods are covered by the sync, not only vanilla ones.
