What This?

by _Sculk_

What This? sends a message to each player when they join a world, and that message is its only function.

What it does

On a server running Fabric, the mod displays a chat message to a player as they join, which the author describes as the only thing it adds. The author calls it a first experiment and states that the mod does not add anything else. Installing it on the server alone is enough, because players join without needing it.

Key features

  1. Join message

    A message is shown to each player as they enter the world, the single behavior of the mod.

  2. Server-side operation

    Only the server needs the mod; players join without installing anything.

  3. Minimal scope

    The author describes it as a first, simple mod made as an experiment, with no other content.

What the author says

Hi there, my name is Sculk. This is a really interesting mod; it adds a whole lot of things... for example... nothing? It’s my first mod and was essentially made as an experiment; the only thing it adds is a message upon joining—which you'll see when you enter a local world.
