Andromeda Status

By pokesmells / Bare Minimum Studios.

Fabric 1.21.1 addon for Max Henkel's Status mod.

This project does not fork, bundle, copy, or redistribute Status. Status remains a required external dependency. The build pulls the published Fabric 1.21.1 Status artifact from Modrinth Maven.

Required mods

• Minecraft 1.21.1
• Fabric Loader 0.15.11+
• Fabric API
• Status 1.21.1-1.0.8
• Andromeda Status

Install Status and this addon on the server and on modded clients.

Statuses

The original availability choices and neutral/no-status choice are replaced by:

• In Character
• Out of Character
• Open to RP
• Busy / AFK
• Event
• New
• Recording
• Streaming

Out of Character is the fallback/default. Blank, neutral, unsupported, and legacy availability states are normalized to OOC/none.

The original No Sleep toggle is preserved.

Server configuration

On first server startup the addon writes:

config/andromeda_status/statuses.json

Example defaults:

{
  "statuses": {
    "andromeda:ic": {
      "label": "In Character",
      "color": "#2EEC23"
    },
    "andromeda:ooc": {
      "label": "Out of Character",
      "color": "#FF3347"
    },
    "andromeda:open_rp": {
      "label": "Open to RP",
      "color": "#FFC83D"
    },
    "andromeda:busy_afk": {
      "label": "Busy / AFK",
      "color": "#8A8A8A"
    },
    "andromeda:event": {
      "label": "Event",
      "color": "#A855F7"
    },
    "andromeda:new": {
      "label": "New",
      "color": "#42D9FF"
    },
    "recording": {
      "label": "Recording",
      "color": "#FF0014"
    },
    "streaming": {
      "label": "Streaming",
      "color": "#8821FF"
    }
  }
}

The server sends these labels/colors to clients with the addon when they join, keeping the display consistent for everyone using the server modpack.

The IDs are deliberately fixed so old/malicious/unknown Status strings cannot create arbitrary entries. Labels and colors are configurable.

How it works

• Status already serializes its base status as a string, so the addon uses custom string IDs through Status's existing networking.
• A small mixin normalizes Status PlayerState objects so old Availability values are disabled and unsupported/blank base statuses become OOC.
• The server explicitly stores OOC as a player's initial state so players who join later also receive that default.
• The addon replaces the original U-key Status screen with an Andromeda screen without editing the Status jar.
• Client-side dynamic icons are generated from the server-provided hex colors.
• Recording and Streaming remain valid Status base states.
• No Sleep remains functional.

Build

./gradlew build

The built addon jar will be under build/libs/. The Status jar is a dependency and is not included in the addon jar.

1.0.1

• Fixed a native OpenGL crash on client startup by deferring dynamic status icon creation until the normal client tick loop, after the render context is initialized.

1.0.2

• Fixed the status screen render order so Minecraft's background blur runs only in the background pass.
• The panel is now drawn after the world blur, while status color swatches and the "Set your Status" title are drawn as foreground elements after the widgets, keeping them crisp.

1.0.3

• Switched Andromeda Status to the Bare Minimum License (BML) v1.0.
• Prevented the original neutral Status icon from briefly appearing while dynamic addon icons are still being prepared.
• Added bounds validation to the server-to-client status-definition payload.
• Status labels now strip control characters before being written/synced.
• Login initialization now preserves an already-present state instead of blindly overwriting it with the default.

1.0.5

• Renamed the project from Andromeda Status Addon to Andromeda Status.
• Updated the mod ID, package namespace, config folder, translation namespace, mixin config, and archive name to match.
• Updated authors to pokesmells and Bare Minimum Studios.
• Updated the mod icon.
