gamerule-gui
by Gaobai-awa
gamerule-gui gives players a graphical interface for viewing and changing game rules, so the gamerule command no longer has to be typed from memory.
What it does
The mod adds a screen where game rules are listed with their current values. Boolean rules appear as buttons that switch between true and false on click, while integer rules show an input field where a value can be typed directly. A live search filters the list by English rule names or Chinese translations, and interface and chat messages follow the Minecraft language setting in English or Chinese. Changes are saved to the world file in the same way the gamerule command saves them.
Opening the interface is done with the gamerule-gui view and modify command, and anyone may open it to see the rules. Only operators can change a value, so non-OP players see the list but cannot edit it. A chat log control can turn off the operation feedback messages with gamerule-gui showlog false. The mod works on Fabric 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, where the latest file 1.0.0 for 1.20.6 was published on 2026-05-19, and it is open source under the MIT License.
The client needs the mod, and the server can run without it, though the command only works when the server has it too. Mod Menu is optional and, when installed, adds a config entry point for the mod. The mod does not modify vanilla classes and works through events, which keeps it from conflicting with other mods that also edit game rules.
Key features
Graphical rule editor
A screen lists every game rule with its current value, so rules can be read and changed without remembering command names.
Visual toggles and number input
Boolean rules are switched with a button click, and integer rules accept a typed value in an input field.
Live search in two languages
The rule list filters as the player types, matching English rule names and Chinese translations.
Operator-only editing
Anyone can open the view, but changing a value requires operator rights, and the saved changes persist in the world.

How it compares
Just Enough Gamerules is server-side only and published under the MIT License for 1.20.1. TabRenamer is a client and server mod under the Apache License 2.0, also for 1.20.1, and it changes the tab list rather than game rules, so it covers a different job. Sync System Time is server required with an optional client and is published for 1.21.8.
