ColonyRank | Minecolonies Addon
- By
ColonyRank ranks MineColonies colonies by progression stats with two scoring systems, six presets, in-game commands, ignored-colonies management, and Discord webhook posting. NeoForge 1.21.1 & Forge 1.20.1.
ColonyRank adds a competitive leaderboard system to MineColonies servers, available for both NeoForge 1.21.1 (Java 21) and Forge 1.20.1 (Java 17).
It scans colony data from all colonies on the server and calculates a transparent, configurable score for each one. Rankings are displayed in-game via commands and can be automatically published to a Discord channel through a webhook.
Scoring Modes
OLD Mode — Historical Multiplier System
Each of the 5 stats (Population, Buildings, Average Building Level, Claimed Chunks, Overall Happiness) is multiplied by an individual multiplier. A strict quota is enforced: two stats at ×5, two stats at ×10, and one stat at ×100. This ensures every colony ranking is balanced and no single stat can dominate.
NEW Mode — Cross-Product System
Links related stats together for a more dynamic score. Instead of flat multipliers, the formula uses cross-products like Population × Happiness and Average Level × Buildings, then multiplies the total by 5.
Six presets are available:
| Preset | Pop coef | Happiness coef | Buildings coef | Level coef | Claims coef |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Development | 5 | 0.4 | 5 | 2.5 | 0.5 |
| Population | 10 | 0.6 | 5 | 1.5 | 0.5 |
| Expansion | 5 | 0.4 | 8 | 1.5 | 2 |
| Management | 5 | 1.0 | 6 | 1.5 | 0.5 |
| Metropolis | 5 | 0.4 | 12 | 1.0 | 1 |
| Custom | — | — | — | — | — |
Custom lets you define your own 5 coefficients directly in the config screen.
Presets can be switched at any time with /colonyadmin preset <name> or through the Fzzy Config screen.
