[SWG] Simple Waystones Groups

Welcome to [SWG] Simple Waystones Groups!

Unofficial addon for the Waystones mod.

What changed: When this addon was first written, Waystones had no groups at all, so SWG brought its own: group screens, its own picker, its own storage. Waystones 26.3 then grew a group system of its own, and a good one. Running a second system next to it would have given you two places for the same thing, so SWG stepped back instead. Since 26.3 it adds only what Waystones does not do, and stays out of the way everywhere else.

What SWG adds on Minecraft 26.3

Server groups

A Waystones group belongs to a player. A server group belongs to the server: an admin defines it with /swg, every player sees the same ones, and nobody can rename or restyle them. They are not part of anyone's personal group list, so they never take a slot in the group bar on the left and never turn up under "Manage Groups".

One button on the right of the waystone menu opens the list. The slot beside it shows the active group, and clicking that slot clears the selection again.
Waystones in a server group are drawn in bold, in the group's colour.
Every group has its own icon and colour, set with /swg icon and /swg color.
Inside a server group, waystones keep the order the admin gave them.

Admin commands, OP level 2: create, rename, delete, add, remove, list, deleteall, removeall, color, icon, help.

Visibility filter

Waystones filters by group, not by how a waystone became visible. This filter does. It offers exactly the kinds that are actually in the list in front of you, the new Team visibility included, it appears only where there is more than one kind to choose between, and it remembers its setting per group.

Your own groups live in Waystones now

SWG's own group screens are gone. Groups you already had are converted once, on your next login, and show up under "Manage Groups" like any other.

Please note:
This is a hobby project developed in my free time. I do not promise specific release dates or a regular update schedule.
There are no plans to port this mod to other mod loaders (e.g. Forge/NeoForge).

Older versions: Minecraft 1.21.x, 26.1.2 and 26.2

Those builds predate the native group system and still carry SWG's own. They are unchanged and stay available under Versions:

Create and manage your own groups, with screens for creating, editing and reordering
Group selection in two columns (server groups | my groups), with search
Visibility filter (All types / Everyone / Activated by me)
Last selected group and visibility are remembered per world or server
Works client-only: groups are stored locally per world or server
Server groups via /swg for admins

Minecraft 26.3 and newer. The waystone menu with SWG installed. Waystones' own group filters stay on the left, SWG adds one column on the right. Waystones that belong to a server group are drawn in bold, in that group's colour.

Minecraft 26.3 and newer. One button opens the server group list, with a search box for servers that define many of them. Each group carries its own icon and colour, set by an admin.

Minecraft 26.3 and newer. The list shows only that group, in the order the admin gave it. The slot next to the button shows which group is active; clicking it clears the selection again.

Minecraft 26.3 and newer. Filter by how a waystone became visible, which Waystones itself does not offer. It lists exactly the kinds that are in front of you, Team included, appears only where there is more than one kind, and remembers its setting per group.

Minecraft 26.3 and newer. Personal groups are Waystones' own feature now and SWG no longer duplicates them. Server groups deliberately do not appear here, so nobody can rename or restyle what the server defines.

Minecraft 26.3 and newer. Server groups are created and filled with /swg, including colour and icon. Changes reach every player immediately, even with the waystone menu open.

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. These screens no longer exist in 26.3, where Waystones handles your own groups.

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. Create or delete groups easily.

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. Set a group name, search and select available waystones (selected will be displayed green) and press "Create".

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. Add and remove waystones, change their order, rename your group or even delete it.

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. Select the default "All" group, or even search and select between existing server or personal groups.

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. The waystone list filtered down to one group.

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. The visibility filter still exists in 26.3, in a new form, see the newer screenshot. You can filter the list view by waystones visibility type (not depending on selecting a group view). In this case: "Activated by me".

Minecraft 1.21.x to 26.2. Server groups work the same way in 26.3, with color and icon added, see the newer screenshot. Server groups are admin-defined, server-wide waystone groups. All players see them and can use them to filter the waystone list. Only waystones that are visible to everyone can be added.
