dReconnect
by SOVA STUDIO
dReconnect adds an automatic reconnect option to the disconnect screen, so a player kicked from a server can rejoin without returning to the multiplayer menu.
What it does
Once the game drops a player from a server, a discreet label shows up in the bottom-right area of the disconnect screen. Clicking it switches auto-reconnect on, and a countdown then starts before the client attempts to join again. Clicking the label a second time turns the mode off. The switch changes instantly and is intentionally unobtrusive, so the screen keeps its usual layout.
The countdown length can be customized in the mod's settings. A hotkey on the disconnect screen also toggles the mode, for players who prefer the keyboard. The mod is a small client addition: it runs on the client only, and servers need no installation. dReconnect requires Architectury API. Files are published for Fabric and Forge, both for Minecraft 1.20.1, and the mod is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.
Key features
Auto-reconnect on kick
When the connection to a server ends with a kick, the disconnect screen offers an automatic reconnect instead of only the menu buttons.
Inconspicuous toggle label
Clicking a small text label in the bottom-right area of the disconnect screen switches auto-reconnect on or off in one action.
Adjustable countdown
The delay before the reconnect attempt starts is customizable, and the countdown is shown on screen.
Keyboard hotkey
A hotkey on the disconnect screen switches the mode without moving the mouse to the label.

Use cases
Servers that kick during restarts
A player removed by a server restart can rejoin once the server is back, without navigating the server list again.
Unstable connections
Players on connections that drop occasionally can resume play automatically after a timeout kick.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who join servers that restart often or who lose connections during play. Because only the client needs it, server owners do not have to install anything to let their players use it.

What the author says
A small client mod for Architectury that adds a neat “autoreconnect” after being kicked from a server. An inconspicuous label appears in the lower right corner of the disconnect screen, and clicking it enables the auto-connect mode and starts a countdown.
