AdvancedJobs (Hytale) - Mod Overview
A fully native, GUI-first Hytale jobs system inspired by JobsReborn, built for progression-heavy survival/economy servers.
What This Mod Does
AdvancedJobs adds a complete jobs progression layer where players:
- Join jobs from UI (
/jobs or /job)
- Earn XP and money from job-specific actions
- Level up jobs with scaling rewards
- Track progress and earnings in live UI panels
- Use placeholders for HUD/scoreboards/tab lists
- Benefit from optional MMO skill syncing and economy integrations
No player command configuration is required. Core player flow is done in GUI.
Core Features
- Job creation and config-backed reward mappings
- XP gain per action (break, place, kill, craft)
- Leveling system with exponential XP curve
- Income payouts with multipliers and level scaling
- Per-player active job limits (permission-aware)
- Permission-based job access
- GUI admin management tools
- Timed boosts (XP/income)
- Placeholder support with internal fallback behavior
- Notification-based level-up alerts (not chat spam)
- Persistent player progress storage
