Fair Play for Xaero's Maps

by Inbound

Fair Play for Xaero's Maps gives server operators a way to restrict which gameplay-affecting features of Xaero's map mods their players can use.

FabricNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.7.10 – 26.3

What it does

The mod is installed on the server and enforces fair play settings for supported Xaero mods. Server owners can turn fair play mode on for the World Map and Mini Map, disable the entity radar, disable cave mode, or turn off the Minimap entirely. Cave-mode exceptions, such as the Nether, can be set separately, and each restriction can be adjusted independently.

Policies are sent automatically to players when they connect and are reapplied live, so changes take effect without a restart or reconnect. Settings can be reloaded at runtime with the xaerofairplay reload command. Per-backend policies are supported for proxy networks, and older clients receive Xaero's standard fair play messages as a fallback. The mod only configures Xaero mods already installed by the player and has no way to spot altered clients or rival map tools. Only the server has to run the mod, and players who lack it can still join. Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric.

Key features

  1. Fair play mode

    Enforces Xaero's fair play mode for the World Map and Mini Map on the server.

  2. Entity radar and cave mode

    The entity radar and cave mode can each be disabled, independently of one another.

  3. Live settings reload

    Changes are reapplied live and can be reloaded with the xaerofairplay reload command, without a restart.

  4. Per-backend proxy policies

    Separate policies can be set for each backend server in a proxy network.
