How Synchronization Works

When any player on your server unlocks an advancement, it automatically becomes unlocked for every other connected player. This happens in real-time—you don't need to restart the server or manually trigger anything. The mod handles the synchronization behind the scenes.

What Gets Synced

All standard Minecraft advancements sync across players, including:

  • Exploration advancements (visiting biomes, finding structures)
  • Combat achievements (defeating mobs and bosses)
  • Crafting and smelting milestones
  • Breeding and farming accomplishments
  • Custom advancements added by other mods

Viewing Shared Progress

Open your advancements tab (default: L key) to see which advancements your server has collectively unlocked. Completed advancements appear highlighted. This gives you a quick overview of what your group has achieved together.

Important Notes

Synchronization only works on servers running the mod. Single-player worlds are unaffected. If you're playing on a server without the mod installed, advancements will behave normally and won't sync with other players.
