AllayMail
by rsrth
AllayMail lets allays carry written mail and packages between players, with delivery tied to the recipient's online presence.
What it does
Allays deliver packages to players. A written book, or a bundle that has been given a player's nickname as its name, is handed to an allay, which then teleports to the recipient and waits nearby until the mail is taken. The trip skips loading the chunks it passes over, and deliveries work across dimensions.
Deliveries happen only while the recipient is online. When a player joins, a teleport starts soon after unless the destination chunks are unloaded. The player gets a sound and a text notice above the hotbar when an allay arrives, and if the package is not taken, the allay dies. Writable books and bundles are intended for the mail, while renamed anvils and signed written books are not.
AllayMail is released under the MIT License and is not open source in the catalog's sense of the term. It is published for Fabric alone, for 1.21.1, and Fabric API is required. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own.
