Reconnect
by 59xa
With Reconnect installed, a player who gets kicked from a multiplayer or Realms world can return to it from the in-game menu without going back to the server list.
What it does
Reconnect adds a reconnect button to the in-game menu screen of multiplayer worlds, and a reconnect command that can be typed in chat. Realms servers are covered too, since the mod was extended to them after its first release. A payload command exists for reconnect actions, and the mod supersedes HiWord9's Reconnect Button mod, which no longer covers the newer versions. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and the mod runs on Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt.
Reconnect is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it and the server can be left unchanged. Files are published for 16 release versions 1.21 – 26.2, and snapshot builds are published as well. The project is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public. Ports to Forge and backports to older versions are mentioned as possible future work, and incompatibilities with some mods have been noted.
Key features
Reconnect button

Typing the reconnect command in chat starts a reconnect without opening any menu.
Realms support
The reconnect function also works on Realms servers, which the mod added in a later update.
Payload command
A payload command allows reconnect actions to be executed from the command line.

Use cases
Returning after a disconnect
A player dropped by a network interruption can rejoin the same world from the pause menu instead of searching the server list again.
Realms play
Players on Realms servers can reconnect from the in-game menu, since the mod covers Realms as well as ordinary multiplayer worlds.
Who it’s for: Players who join multiplayer or Realms worlds and want a quick way back after being disconnected, on Fabric, NeoForge or Quilt. Server owners do not need to install anything.
