Where it goes

Is Async Locator required on the client, server, or both?

The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both.

Client Source doesn’t say
Dedicated server Source doesn’t say
Loader for this release Fabric
Required install it here Optional supported, not mandatory Not supported do not install here Source doesn’t say do not assume

The source does not explicitly classify this release as client-only or server-only.

What else does Async Locator async-locator-fabric-1.19.4-1.3.1.jar need?

async-locator-fabric-1.19.4-1.3.1.jar. Change the file and its required mods may change too.

1 required mod needs a matching file

Install Fabric API first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match.

No matching file

We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

Before you install it

Add Async Locator without breaking your instance.

Built for Async Locator async-locator-fabric-1.19.4-1.3.1.jar. Pick another file and the loader, install side or required mods may change.

  1. 01

    Stick to this file

    Use async-locator-fabric-1.19.4-1.3.1.jar. It targets 1.19.4 with Fabric; another release may have different loader, side or dependency requirements.

  2. 02

    Bring the mods it needs

    Install Fabric API first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match.

  3. 03

    Put it on the correct side

    The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both.

Modifies vanilla behaviour when locating features to run asynchronously, mitigating associated lag.

This is currently implemented for:

  • Locate command when executed by a user
  • Villager explorer map trade offers
  • Dolphin treasure finding
  • Exploration map in chests (v1.1.0+)

This mod is only required to be installed server side! So clients only need this installed if they want it for single player.

This alone only works for vanilla (see list above). Other mods may need to implement usage of this mod themselves to make use of the async functionality.

Incompatabilities

Mods that affect vanilla's structure locating features may impact Async Locator's functionality.

Right now, the list below states other mods that I'm aware of:

  • Structure Essentials
    Has been seen that on startup only one of either Async Locator's or Structure Essentials' locating improvements will work. No real issues otherwise, but only one of the mods are required.

Mod Integration

Other mods can also use Async Locators as a dependency to implement the asynchronous locating into their own code. To do so, please use CurseMaven or Modrinth Maven to add this mod to your build.gradle, and then make use of the AsyncLocator class and/or logic classes.
