Give your whole party credit: share kill advancements and XP from mobs/bosses with everyone who actually helped.
What it does
- Shares advancements: Re-fires the vanilla player_killed_entity trigger for all eligible participants so boss/mob “kill” advancements go to the whole group.
- Shares XP: Splits the dropped XP among players who dealt damage. XP can be delivered as orbs (Mending-friendly) or directly.
- Server-side only: No client install required.
Features
- Participation-based credit:
- Advancements: everyone who damaged the mob (and optionally anyone within a radius at death).
- XP: only players who actually dealt damage.
- Configurable XP sharing:
- Mode: proportional by damage or equal split.
- Delivery: spawn orbs at each player (preserves Mending) or give XP directly.
- Boss-only toggle via tag: Restrict to bosses or specific mobs by setting an entity type tag (e.g., forge:bosses or your own datapack tag).
- Pet damage counts: Tamed pets credit their owner as a participant.
- Sensible filters: Minimum damage required to qualify; spectators excluded; cross-dimension players aren’t counted.
Compatibility
- Minecraft: 1.20.1
- Forge: 47.x
- Works with most mods that use the standard minecraft:player_killed_entity advancement criterion.
- Note: If a mod uses custom criteria for boss achievements, those won’t be auto-shared (the standard kill trigger is shared). Damage-source-specific conditions in advancements still apply based on the actual killing blow.
Configuration (server-side, per world)
- File: world/serverconfig/bossadvshare-server.toml
- Options:
- general.useDamageParticipants: true — include players who dealt damage (advancements)
- general.includeRadiusPlayers: false — also include nearby players for advancements
- general.radius: 32 — radius in blocks (if above is true)
- general.minDamageToQualify: 1.0 — minimum total damage to be considered a participant
- general.onlyWhenKillerIsPlayer: true — only share advancements if a player dealt the killing blow
- general.targetEntityTypeTag: "" — e.g., forge:bosses to limit scope
- xpSharing.enableXpSharing: true — enable XP sharing
- xpSharing.xpShareMode: "proportional" or "equal"

Installation
- Drop the jar into your server’s mods folder. No client install needed.
- Start the server to generate the config, tweak as desired, and restart.
Notes
- Items and loot are unchanged; the mod only shares advancements and XP.
- Lightweight: per-entity fight data is tracked and cleaned up automatically.
- Should be compatible with most modpacks.
FAQ:
- Can I include it in my mod pack?
