survival Minecraft can be tedious and even get boring at times, even when you
are playing with your best friends. There are many ways to customize your
experience when playing on a server. These include Resource Packs, Mods, and Plugins. However one
of the easiest ways to change how the game feels is by installing a Data pack.
Data packs are
game configurations, which allow for certain activities to occur (for example
night passes even if not all players are sleeping; leaves decay faster, etc.).
Also, there are some packs that allow the tracking of various statistics
(kilometers flown, kilometers swam, minutes played, etc.), so there can be some
competitiveness involved.
All in all,
these packs are an easy way to spice up your experience on the server. Even
though it sounds like a lot of work, installing a Data pack on your Minecraft
server is easier than it looks. This tutorial will guide you through the whole
process of uploading a Data pack to your server.
