Teamcreator
by z7534
Teamcreator is a Forge mod that lets operators create and fill Minecraft teams with one command, with optional glow effects in each team's color.
What it does
The mod extends the vanilla team system with two commands. The teamcreator command makes a new team and assigns the listed players to it, and a new team takes a predefined color. Players added without a name get an automatic name such as Team1 or Team2. An extra argument turns the team-based glow effect on or off.
The randomteam command creates a set number of teams and spreads the given players across them at random, with colors picked automatically so players are split evenly. Existing generated teams are cleared first, so each run starts fresh. Both commands work with the scoreboard system and are aimed at minigames, PvP events, adventure maps and multiplayer servers.
Teamcreator runs on Forge 1.20.1 47.4.10 and later builds, and it needs to be on the client and the server. Files are published for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with 1.0 for 1.20.6 as the latest file, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

How it compares
Glow Squid Origin is a Fabric and Forge mod that runs on the server alone, is not open source under the MIT License, and is published for 1.20.1. Item Outlines is open source under the MIT License, works on Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 26.1.2, and only the client needs it. Teamcreator needs both the server and clients for its own range.
