Better "Add Server"
by Player005
Better "Add Server" changes the Add Server screen of the multiplayer menu with a few quality of life adjustments for entering servers.
What it does
When a player enters a server address and presses Enter, the server is saved to the list, so the screen does not need a separate confirm click. The server name is filled in automatically from the IP address or domain typed in, which saves typing a name for each new entry.
Existing entries that still carry the default name "Minecraft Server" are renamed to more recognisable names, so the server list is easier to scan. The mod is built for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. Files cover 1.19 – 26.3, and the latest build for 26.3 was published on 2026-10-04.

Pressing Enter in the address field saves the server, without an extra step on the screen.
Automatic server names
The name field fills in from the IP address or domain as it is typed.
