Player Session Tracker
Player Session Tracker records when each player joins and leaves a Forge 1.20.1 server, and keeps a per-player history of those sessions.
What it does
Each login and logout is written to a simple JSON file kept for that player. Players can view their own offline session history, including join time, leave time, session duration and the server time and date of each login. A paginated output with clickable navigation buttons makes long histories easier to browse, and the buttons run their commands automatically.
The mod is server-side only, so only the server needs it and players join without installing anything. It rebuilds a playtime-tracking idea originally written for Fabric, adapted for Forge 1.20.1 servers. Files are published for 1.20.1 only, and the code is open source under the Apache License 2.0.
Key features
Session timestamps
Join time, leave time and total session duration are recorded for every visit to the server.
Last seven days history
A seven-day playtime history shows how much time each player spent on the server in recent days.
Paginated session list
Long session histories split into pages, with buttons to move forward and back without typing commands.
Per-player JSON storage
Each player's data is kept in its own simple JSON file, which keeps the stored records readable and straightforward to inspect.
