CivChestTracker
by Netherwart
CivChestTracker is a Fabric fork of Chest Tracker built for the CivMC server, which changes how the tracker records containers.
What it does
The mod is a port of the Chest Tracker client mod, adjusted to the rules of the CivMC server, where bots and mods that read container locations are not allowed unless an exception is granted. CivChestTracker removes the automatic reading of block placement and breaking, so it no longer records chests from those events. Instead it depends on the Citadel reinforcement metadata, and it needs the cti feature enabled on the server to work at all.
Chests are associated with their inventory through the Citadel metadata, and an integrity setting can remove an entry when a player breaks a block or when a periodic check finds a missing block, which is off by default. Tooltips and buttons in the interface state which features are illegal on CivMC. A block-selection screen replaces the pick-block behavior of the original database.
The mod is client-side only and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. Files target 1.21.8 and 1.21.11, and the latest Fabric build, 2.8.4-A+1.21.11, was published on 2026-10-12.
Key features
Citadel reinforcement lookup
The ctinfo command reports, in a system message, which reinforcement protects the block the player interacted with, including its location.
Metadata-based tracking
Block interactions are read from Citadel metadata, while placements and breaks are ignored by the tracker.
Integrity settings
Entries can be removed on block break or after a periodic check for missing blocks, and the periodic check is disabled by default.
Block-selection screen
A screen for choosing a block replaces the original pick-block behavior of the tracker database.
