BTA Whitelist
by ipiepiepie
BTA Whitelist lets server owners keep offline-mode Better Adventure servers restricted to a list of approved players, including offline accounts.
What it does
On a BTA Babric server, the mod supports whitelisting for offline players, a case the base whitelist handles poorly. Adding a player who joins in offline mode now works as expected, so the server can admit only the names on its list.
The mod is installed only on the server, in its mods folder, and the server must run Babric with mod support enabled. Players join without installing anything, and a server restart is needed after the file is added. The build is for Minecraft b1.7.3 and is published as a modified version of Fabric Babric, which is designed for Better Adventure. Snapshot builds are published alongside the release.
Note that a whitelist does not stop a player from changing nicknames on an offline-mode server. Someone can switch to a whitelisted name and gain access to that account, so the whitelist alone does not secure a server that has offline mode enabled. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the mod is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Offline player whitelisting
Offline players can be added to the whitelist, which fixes the case where they could not be admitted by name.
Whitelist enforcement
Only names on the server's whitelist are admitted, so a server can limit who joins without opening itself to everyone.
Restart-based setup
Once the file is placed in the mods folder, a server restart activates the whitelist changes for all connected players.
Modified base loader
The mod is built on a loader variant tailored to Better Adventure rather than the stock loader.
Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners running Better Adventure on Babric who want a whitelist that works for offline-mode players. Players who only join a server need nothing installed.
How it compares
BTA Light Overlay is client-side only and open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, with files for b1.7.3. BTA Minimap is also client-side only and open source, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Camera Man is the one alternative that runs on both client and server, open source under CC0 1.0 Universal. BTA Whitelist is server-side only, so none of these replace it for whitelisting.
