NeonCore
- By
NeonCore is an all-in-one server mod that bundles the systems most SMP servers want, with deep .toml customization and every feature individually toggleable so you can mix and match. No external dependencies.
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| Skulls | Killing another player gives you a visible [SKULL] tab tag for a configurable time. /skull info /give /remove /list. |
| Item-backed economy | Currency is a real item (default: gold ingot). Configurable name, symbol, and display item. |
| Pay signs | [Pay] / amount / player signs that transfer money on right-click. Behave like a real vanilla button: the sign itself briefly turns into a pressed stone button and every adjacent door, trapdoor, fence gate or redstone lamp pulses open / lights up. Doorbell layouts (sign on the wall beside a door) are detected automatically. |
| Chest shops | [Shop] signs on chests, with a floating 3D item hologram and colored BUY/SELL price labels. Anvil-renamed items keep their custom name. "OUT OF STOCK" is shown automatically when the chest can't fulfil the trade. |
| Customizable tab list | 4-column grid (online players sorted by money, all-time deaths leaderboard). Multi-line header / footer with animations <a:f1|f2|f3>, conditionals <if:bal>1000?VIP|> and dozens of placeholders (ping, playtime, tps, top1, lives, hearts, ...). |
| Lives & red Life Bottles | Per-player lives count with a heart row in the tab footer. Red Life Bottles restore hearts and lives. |
| Lightning on death | Harmless visual lightning bolt on every death. Toggle in config. |
- Install NeoForge 21.1.228+ for Minecraft 1.21.1.
- Drop
skullmod-1.0.0.jarintomods/on both the client and the server. - Launch once — the mod auto-creates
