ForgeNeoForgeClient or server, optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 1.21.1

What it does

Neutron Tools gathers developer utilities that are commonly found in other mods. Its commands let an operator ping players, including a single chosen player, and read their network latency. The ping command is available to players who are not operators. Other commands generate content, and a reload command refreshes creative tab display names and internal names.

The mod was made to help developers and pack authors control a modpack during development. It lists items, entities, blocks and creative tabs, and it can change which items appear in the creative tabs. Either side can run it, and neither needs it. The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge across nine release versions, 1.20 – 1.21.1, and it is released under the MIT License. Its source code, issue tracker and wiki are public.

Key features

  1. Ping command

    Operators can send a ping to all players or to one chosen player, then read that player's network latency.

  2. Creative tab control

    Creative tabs can be changed and reloaded, and their display and internal names are shown in lists.

  3. Content generation

    A generate command produces content for the modpack, useful during pack development.

  4. Lists of game objects

    Lists of items, entities, blocks and creative tabs can be printed for reference while building a pack.
