NoOpenToLAN

by kuzuanpa

NoOpenToLAN removes the Open to LAN option from the pause menu on Forge 1.7.10, so a single-player world cannot be opened to other players.

ForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.7.10

What it does

The mod takes out the Open to LAN button and makes the attempt to open a world to the local network always fail. When a player tries to open the game, a hint message appears in place of the screen, suggesting that a dedicated server is the way to host other players. Its messages are set in the configuration file, so a server owner can change the wording or the behavior that the mod applies.

The mod is aimed at modded 1.7.10 packs, where the author notes that Minecraft's LAN world handling tends to cause bugs when many mods are present. It does not block connecting to a server, so players can still join dedicated servers normally. Installation needs UniMixins alongside Forge, and the mod is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it. NoOpenToLAN is released under the MIT License and is open source.

Key features

  1. Disabled Open to LAN button

    The Open to LAN button in the pause menu is removed or always disabled, depending on the configuration.

  2. Failing LAN attempts

    Attempts to open a world to the local network are stopped, so the game never starts a LAN session.

  3. Hint message

    A message tells the player to use a dedicated server, and the text of the message can be configured.

  4. Hint on the Open LAN screen

    A hint is shown on the Open LAN screen itself, pointing the player toward a dedicated server instead.

Use cases

Modded 1.7.10 packs

Pack makers can stop players from hosting unstable LAN sessions in packs with many mods installed.

Dedicated server setups

A pack that already runs on a dedicated server can use the mod to direct players there and away from local hosting.

Who it’s for: The mod suits pack makers and server owners who run Minecraft 1.7.10 with Forge and want players to join a dedicated server rather than host a LAN world.

Questions

Does NoOpenToLAN need UniMixins?

Yes. UniMixins is a required dependency and must be installed alongside NoOpenToLAN on Forge 1.7.10.

Does NoOpenToLAN have to be installed on the server?

No. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it.

Can players still join a dedicated server with the mod installed?

Yes. The mod does not block connecting to a server, so joining a dedicated server works as usual.

Can the hint message be changed?

Yes. The messages and behaviors are set in the configuration file, so the wording and the hint can be adjusted.
