ZenithTeams
by dargamer002
ZenithTeams is a Fabric team management mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that adds real-time vector tracking, a shared team vault and private team chat.
What it does
Players form teams in-game, and the mod tracks each teammate with an action bar compass that shows the direction and distance to allies. A shared Team Vault gives the whole team a 27-slot inventory that can be opened from anywhere through a single command. Team members can also talk through private inter-team chat channels, and invitations are sent through an interactive chat system with spam protection.
The mod is meant for cooperative survival, exploration and PvP sessions where keeping track of teammates matters. Team settings include a friendly fire toggle, and the scoreboard shows team information without flicker. Saving uses Jackson on background threads, so data writes do not hold up the main game loop. The command layer is built on Brigadier, the command system Minecraft already uses.
Installation needs Fabric API. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.1, under the MIT License; the code is not open source.
Key features
Real-time vector tracking
An action bar compass points toward each teammate and shows the distance, calculated from their position each tick.
Shared Team Vault
A 27-slot inventory that belongs to the whole team, opened with one command and stored without blocking the server.
Private team chat
Team-only chat channels keep communication between members separate from the public chat, with invitations sent interactively.
Friendly fire toggle
Each team can switch friendly fire on or off, controlling whether members can damage one another.
Flicker-free scoreboard
The team scoreboard updates in place, so information changes without visible glitching on screen.

How it compares
Player Tracker Compass is a Fabric mod for 1.21 that is server-side only and open source under the GNU General Public License v2.0 or later, so clients need nothing installed. Auto Team Chat is a Fabric mod for 1.21.4 that is client-side only and open source under the Apache License 2.0, so it changes nothing on the server. ZenithTeams differs by needing both sides for 1.21.1, and it is not open source.
