I Wanna [The End... Alone...]
by Necron-Dev
I Wanna [The End... Alone...] changes when the End dragon respawn advancement is awarded, so that only players who place End Crystals for the ritual earn it.
What it does
Vanilla awards the respawned Ender Dragon advancement to any player in the End dimension whenever the dragon respawns, including a solo player who placed the crystals alone. Players who only stand near the portal can also collect it by idling there.
The mod changes only the advancement trigger logic and leaves the rest of the dragon fight untouched. It is a lightweight Fabric mod for 1.21.11 and runs on the server alone, so players who join a server running it do not need to install anything. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Contributor-only rewards
The advancement goes only to players who manually placed at least one End Crystal used in the ritual.
Credit for placing one crystal
A player who helped place just one of the four crystals receives the advancement, while a player who only watched gets nothing.
Team-based completion
When four separate players each place a crystal, all four receive the advancement, which supports teamwork.
Idle players excluded
Players who stand near the portal for a long time do not complete the task automatically.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Multiplayer End runs
Groups that take the dragon fight together can share the advancement among the players who did the work.
Vanilla-feel survival
Servers that want the dragon fight to stay the same apart from who earns the advancement can run the mod without other changes.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want the End dragon respawn advancement to reward players who took part in the ritual, rather than everyone standing in the End dimension.
How it compares
What Advancements is also server-side only and open source, under the MIT License, with files for 1.21 – 1.21.11. Advancement+ is client-side only, released under the MIT License, and published for 1.21.8 only. Smaller Crystals is client-side only, covered by All rights reserved, and built for 1.21 – 1.21.5, so it does not fit this game version.
