Collection Master

⚠️ WIP: This mod is in an early stage of development. Don't forget to leave your suggestions in the comments.

Collection Master adds a configurable item collection system that turns everyday resources into long-term player progression.

Players can unlock collections by discovering items, submit resources through an in-game interface, complete milestone-based objectives, and earn rewards as they progress. Submitted items are consumed permanently, making every collection a meaningful resource sink for survival, RPG, economy, and multiplayer servers.

Each collection tracks progress per player, supports partial submissions, shows milestone progress, and can reward players with permanent stat bonuses or claimable item rewards. Once a collection is fully completed, players can prestige it and start again while keeping their earned stat bonuses.

Collection Master works out of the box with a default set of collections, milestones, rewards, and prestige settings, but is designed to be highly configurable for server owners and modpack creators.

Submit the required item.

Earn permanent stats or claim item rewards.

Configuration

Collection Master includes sensible defaults so it can be installed and played immediately.

Server owners and modpack creators can customize:

Collection definitions
Required items
Milestone scaling
Reward lists
Permanent stat bonuses
Claimable item rewards
Prestige limits
Fallback item chains for better compatibility with custom content or other mods

Prestige

When a collection is fully completed, players can prestige it and begin progressing through the same milestones again.

Prestiging resets the collection progress, but previously earned permanent stat rewards are kept. This allows players to continue turning gathered resources into meaningful long-term progression.

Item Reward Fallbacks

Item rewards can define an ordered fallback chain. If the preferred reward item is unavailable, Collection Master can try the next configured item instead.

This is especially useful for servers and modpacks where optional mods may add or remove content over time.

/collections - Opens the Collection Master interface.
