Refined Advancements
by limesplatus
Refined Advancements replaces and extends the vanilla advancement tree with new side-goals, such as crafting a diamond pickaxe or entering the Deepslate cave layer.
What it does
The mod adds a new Minecraft tab for advancements and a set of new advancements that aim to clarify progression. Goals range from obtaining an ender pearl and finding an amethyst geode to entering the Ancient City, reaching level 30 or encountering a phantom. Other entries reward movement and play: riding one mount for 5,000 blocks, flying above world height with an elytra, swimming over magma or soul sand, and playing a disc in a jukebox.
Several entries cover utility skills such as using a sponge, creating a conduit, or sneaking with the Swift Sneak enchantment. Refined Advancements is server required and client optional, so the server must run it while players may leave it out. It is released under a custom license and is not open source. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the latest build at 1.0.9 for 26.1, and it is also available as a data pack.
