Friend manager
by userl1x1
Friend manager gives players a saved friends list, armor highlighting for friends, and damage protection so friends are not hit by accident.
What it does
Friends are added to a list kept in a file, which is loaded again after every restart. Commands suggest the nicknames of saved friends even when they are offline, so the list stays usable between sessions. Friends can be marked so they always stand out with bright armor, even when they wear none, which helps keep track of them during a fight.
Damage protection can be switched on or off. While it is active, hitting a friend does nothing, which prevents accidental attacks during survival co-op or in busy servers. The mod also accepts teleport requests from friends automatically, and a toggle controls this friend teleport behaviour. Client and server both need the mod for these features to work. Files are published for Fabric and Forge for 26.2, under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.
