WorldNamePacket

Automatic world name configuration for mapping mods in multiworld mode. No more manual map settings or "world not recognized" messages.

How it works

When you connect to a server with multiple dimensions, mapping mods can get confused and either mix up maps from different worlds or constantly ask which world you're in. This problem is especially common on modded servers but also occurs on vanilla servers when they operate through proxies.

WorldNamePacket solves this problem by automatically providing mapping mods with information about the current world.

Installation

Download the JAR file from the releases section and place it in the mods/plugins folder on the server side. If you're using a proxy server, ensure the mod is installed on all servers.

Configuration

The mod works completely automatically. It reads the world name from the server configuration (level-name for vanilla servers and dimension name for modded ones). The only common issue is when all your worlds have identical names (such as "world") - you'll need to rename them for proper operation.

// Automatic world name detection
String worldName = getDimensionName();
