Campfire XP
by ithilelda
Campfire XP lets a campfire store experience points for its owner, so players can bank XP at a campfire and withdraw it later.
What it does
A campfire placed by a player keeps the XP that mobs drop when they are killed near it, including drops from a Soul Campfire. Campfire blocks hold experience as well, which also makes the mod usable for automated XP farms left running while a player is away.
Storage is tied to ownership. The XP is kept globally for the player who placed the campfire, and that player can reach it from any campfire they placed. Campfires can be destroyed or moved without losing the stored XP. Right-clicking with an empty hand withdraws experience, and holding right-click takes exactly one level at a time until the store is empty. Stackable non-block items work the same way: right-clicking with one in hand deposits or withdraws a number of levels equal to the stack size.
Campfire XP is a server-side only mod, so clients need nothing installed. It is published for Fabric only, across 18 release versions 1.19 – 26.2, and is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license. Version 1.2.0, the latest Fabric file for 26.2, rebuilds the mod on the unobfuscated Minecraft code used from 26.1 on, with the mechanism changes that come with it.
Key features
Mob XP stored in campfires
Experience dropped by mobs killed near a campfire goes into that campfire's store, Soul Campfires included.
Owner-wide XP storage
A campfire's store belongs to the player who placed it, so one player can draw from any campfire they own.
Stack-based deposits
Stackable items in hand move a number of levels equal to the stack size, in either direction.
Storage display
Shift-right-clicking a campfire with an empty hand shows its stored experience.

How it compares
FireplaceMode is a Fabric mod for 1.19.2 – 1.20 that needs the client and server, and it is open source under the MIT License. Embers of Rest is a Fabric mod for 1.21.1 that also runs on client and server under the MIT License. Campfire Buff is a server-side only Fabric mod for 1.21.10 with all rights reserved, so it is not open source. Campfire XP differs by being server-side only, open source under CC0 1.0, and covering the most game versions of these options.
