Simple AFK

Simple AFK detection with team tagging, cosmetic aura, and themed advancements — now fully bilingual (English & German).

Simple AFK Mod – Smarter AFK, fair sleeping, fun challenges

Tired of AFK players blocking the night? This mod automatically detects AFK, excludes AFK & spectators from sleep requirements, and adds a few playful challenges around going idle—without punishing anyone who just needs a break.

Features

  • Auto-AFK detection with action-bar feedback (“You are AFK / You are no longer AFK”).
  • Fair sleeping: only active (non-AFK, non-spectator) players count toward the sleep percentage.
  • AFK time tracking: The mod writes AFK time to: `<world>/simple_afk_mod/afk_times.json` (in seconds), suitable for external tools like Discord bots.
  • Safety for AFK players: prevents targeted aggro & area-damage triggers nearby (e.g., creepers).
  • AFK Aura (cosmetic, green “protective” ring) unlocked by Statue Garden with /afkaura toggle.
  • Fully bilingual: English and German.
  • AFK-themed advancements (challenge frame, hidden until you complete them):
    • Solid as a Rock
    • Power Nap
    • Statue Garden
    • AFK Marathon

Server-Friendly

  • Works on servers and single-player (integrated server).
  • AFK team label [AFK] in dark purple; AFK state cleared on join.
  • Sleep percentage recalculates on join/leave and AFK toggles.

Compatibility

  • NeoForge 21.8.x / 21.9.x (MC 1.21.8 / 1.21.9)
  • Pure server logic — no client mods required for core features.
