[QUESTION] If Tails is installed server-side, are clients able to connect without installing? #109

I play on a private server that is owned by a friend. He is concerned that players would be unable to join unless they also install the mod, which is understandable.

Does the Tails Mod cause mod incompatibility when connecting to servers if you do not install it on the client?

If it does block clients without the mod, is there a possibility of changing this functionality? I am not too familiar with Java or Minecraft Modding, so please forgive my ignorance.

You can install Tails on the server and clients can connect without the mod installed :)

You can also install the mod on the client and it's not required on the server. I made it to be as flexible as possible

Thanks for the quick feedback! I will share this info with my friend.

I love this mod, and add it to the modpacks I play. It was sad to see the upload to skin capability go, but I can understand the decision.

My favorite thing to do is use the Bird tail and large wings, then fly around with an Elytra. The current pack I play has a mod that can turn armor and baubles invisible, so it feels like I’m flying with my own wings.

As a passing statement, I have also experienced the bug stated by u/Flexico in issue #104. I look forward to it being solved in the 2.0 project updates.

Cheers!
