Forgetful Vault
Forgetful Vault changes how often a Vault can be opened on small servers, so players on a server with few players can reuse them.
What it does
Vanilla Vaults only accept a new opening from a player after 127 other players have opened them, as documented in MC-274049. This mod lets server owners set a smaller player count, so the Vault remembers fewer players and becomes renewable sooner. The default configuration already uses a smaller count, which suits small multiplayer servers. Forgetful Vault is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.1 and runs on the server side only, so players join without installing it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source.
Key features
Configurable player count
The number of players a Vault remembers can be lowered in the server configuration.
Renewable Vaults on small servers
Smaller player counts let a Vault be opened again by players who have not already claimed it.
Server-side behavior
Only the server runs the change, so clients need no installation and vanilla players join normally.

How it compares
Renewable Vaults also makes Vaults renewable, but it is server required with client optional and targets 1.20.5 – 26.2 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Trials Expanded is a client and server mod for NeoForge 1.21.1 under the MIT License, so it needs installing on both sides.
