Quick answer
Which Player Journal release should I use?
Player Journal 2.0.1 targets 1.21.1 with NeoForge. Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional. All 1 required mods have matching files.
Where it goes
Is Player Journal required on the client, server, or both?
Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.
The source marks this as usable on both the client and server.
What else does Player Journal 2.0.1 need?
2.0.1. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Cloth Config API first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup. 1 comes through another mod in the chain.
1 extra mod was pulled in by another dependency. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does Player Journal add?

Player Journal adds a true RPG progression system to the game. Players start with 4 pages. Vitality, Agility, Combat and Defense. Players can unlock more pages of the journal to advance in other professions.
Players can level basic classes such as Vitality, Combat, Agility and Defense and have the option to unlock more using pages.

Features
- Unique progression system which levels up as you play.
- QOL features such as pinning xp to chat log.
- Inspect other players Journals using shift+right click with an empty hand.
- Server announcements when players hit milestones.
- Automatic config generation to easily add restrictions to the game

Config
- The mod features a faily simple to use config to adjust/add custom restrictions into the journal making it easy to adjust any balancing concerns you may have.
Custom item in config example...
- "mod:itemid;class:lvl;optional second class:lvl"
- "mod:itemid;combat:1;vitality:2"
- "vc_gliders:paraglider_wood;agility:5"
Or a crafting restriction like this
- "mod:itemid;class:lvl;xp"
