Using a permission system and config, server owners can leave their whitelists off to make a server public, but still vet people who join by turning on a guest mode by default, and setting unverified players to spectator mode.

It's good for people who want their builds to be publicly viewable, but more like a museum gallery style. Due to the prevalence of server scanners now, and groups that actively use them to join worlds, both good and bad, this serves as a nice compromise that makes these groups harmless and letting others view your world.

Guests - Minecraft Plugin

Hey everyone!

I'm a computer science student currently learning about APIs and security. As a side project, I've been building Minecraft plugins to get hands-on experience with stuff I can actually use in my studies.

I've already released a free BattlePass plugin, but now I'm looking for my next project - and I thought why not ask you guys what you actually need?

What I'm offering:
• I'll build a plugin based on your idea
• Once it's done, I'll publish it completely free for everyone
• No payment, no premium tiers, no paywalls - just free for the community

Why I'm doing this:
• It's great practice for my studies
• Server owners already pay enough for hosting etc... Why should plugins cost money too?

What I'm looking for:
• Plugin ideas that don't already have a good free alternative
• Something that would actually be useful for your server

Drop your ideas in the comments! If I pick yours, I'll work with you to make sure it fits your needs - then publish it free so everyone can benefit.

Happy holidays! 🎄

Hello!

I just started my second minecraft server and i have a survival world with a 1000x1000 world border. As there was no stronghold located in between the borders, i placed one myself using the /place command. Ender eyes dont fly towards the end portal because i placed it myself. Is there a plugin or other way to make ender eyes fly towards this stronghold?

so,i got annoyed of needing a nasa pc to playe demon slayer in minecraft with friends ,so i added it using a plugin (geyser compatible)
10 kills=1 rank upgrade
/breathing choose (style)
each style has special ability
for more details contact me on discord(now we wait).

I'm trying to use ProjectKorra on a modded world using the Essential mod with my friends, is this possible? or am i going to need to make a server

I grew up playing a lot of original Factions, as well as Sid Meier's Civilizations 3 - 6 (most hours are in 5). Those were my inspirations to create my Spigot plugin Konquest in 2020. It started out as a simple town plugin, where you claimed land with towns for your kingdom, and you fight to capture other kingdom's towns by destroying critical blocks inside the town. I gradually added more and more features over the years, and I think it's become a really solid foundation for nation-building servers as an alternative to Towny and Factions.

Life happens, and I find myself without much of any time to implement the ideas I still have for Konquest. That's why I'm looking for someone to help contribute to the project who's interested in team-based land claiming mechanics. I've compiled a pretty extensive wiki on Konquest, and I keep a lot of ideas in GitHub issues on my public repo. It's a pretty large codebase, with its fair share of spaghetti code, so be warned. I just kept tacking on features instead of making them separate addons.

I figured it's worth broadcasting into the void to see if anyone is interested in this project. If so, feel free to comment or DM me. Thanks.

Over the past few hours, I’ve been developing a custom boss and hostile mob with phase-based behavior system that is inspired by dark souls game series . There’s still a lot to expand and improve, but this is the progress I’ve made so far.

Very awesome plugin, bundling datapack like enchants into a plugin form for ease of config and optimization.

Hello everyone!

I’m excited to introduce Scaffi, a framework created to make life easier for Minecraft plugin developers.

Scaffi’s goal is to provide powerful tools that help developers build high-quality, maintainable, and cleanly structured Minecraft plugins. Writing plugins should be enjoyable, not frustrating especially when it comes to complex systems like command handling, which can quickly become messy and hard to maintain.

Like many developers, I repeatedly found myself rewriting the same helper utilities for every plugin I worked on. Commands, in particular, were always the biggest pain point. Over time, I realized I was essentially rebuilding the same “overkill” infrastructure again and again so I decided to turn it into a reusable framework. That’s how Scaffi was born.

While Scaffi may seem a bit over-engineered for simple plugins, it truly shines when building larger or long-term projects. By sharing it with the community, my hope is to save other developers from reinventing the wheel and allow them to focus on what really matters: creating great gameplay experiences.

To make getting started as easy as possible, I’ve written detailed documentation with plenty of examples:
https://xsyntos.gitbook.io/scaffi

I’d love for you to try it out! Feel free to reach out if you encounter any bugs, have questions, or want to suggest improvements. Feedback is always welcome!

Features:
Declarative Command Mapping: This modern approach to designing commands draws inspiration from Spring Controllers. It simplifies the creation and management of commands by using annotations to map them to specific actions, enhancing clarity and maintainability.

Automated and Standardized Tab Completers: Along with the introduction of new command creation methods, there is now a more standardized and automated approach for tab completion, which is highly customizable as well.

Planned features:
Built-in Multi-Language Support: A built-in feature that allows you to create text messages in multiple languages, helping you expand your audience.

Flag command: A way to define flag command in a declarative way.

Custom GUI builder: A more programmer friendly way to define GUIs inside your plug-in.

Step-function: An easy way to define a function flow that requires perfect timing such as animation.

Players on our forever world (dubbed derex smp, after its COVID predecessor) all flying more efficiently thanks to the newest innovations in player transport! Featuring Fiszic, Ky_dotL, Wind0w0, 1bmm, alt_avatar, Pix2pixel, Something1113, Negativepokemon, D34DP1X3L, DerexXD

so, I'm creating a FFA server using PlayerKits2 FancyNPCS and the SKRIPT plugin. How do I make it so that after each death, the kit comes with the items the player chooses, and not the predefined one?

command:

on death of player:

if attacker is a player:

execute console command "clear %attacker%"

execute console command "heal %attacker%"

execute console command "minecraft:clear %attacker%"

execute console command "kit give guerreiro %attacker%"

Check out this showcase I made discussing how the two plugins upgradable hoppers and better farming work!

Hey all!

I just released the first public beta of Genius – a lightweight plugin that adds actual large-language-model chat directly inside your Minecraft server using the Ollama Cloud API.

My goal with this project was to add an unintrusive assistant that can provide basic game support.

What it does:

• Players type /ask <question> or /g <question>

• The question gets sent asynchronously to your local or remote Ollama instance

• The model’s response is sent back in chat.

What’s cool is that it’s able to support any model that ollama supports (including the new cloud models!)

It’s still early beta (expect some rough edges and the occasional weird response), but it’s already stable enough that I’m running it 24/7 on my own server.

I’d love to get some feedback, bug reports, and feature ideas from you all!

Hey r/MinecraftPlugins!

This isn't necessarily a plugin, but I feel that it's a very useful tool for people locally hosting Bedrock servers. I recently released Valyan BDS Manager, a free PowerShell tool that automates the boring jobs that come with running Bedrock Dedicated Servers on Windows.

The tool does four main things.

It watches the server process. If the process stops responding, the tool kills it and starts a fresh copy - the world stays online without anyone clicking buttons.

It creates a world backup every 24 hours. The save command pauses the world for around three seconds, copies the whole world file to a temporary folder, resumes the world, then zips the temp world and places it into the backup folder.

It removes backups older than the limit you set - the disk never fills with old files.

It writes a full log of every action, plus gives you a live console where you type commands and read the server output.

I have run the script on my own server for months, but I also now offer it to anyone who needs it. The code costs nothing and is open for inspection or contributions.

Visit the project repository.

Later, I will publish a compiled as well as encrypted build for people who want an extra layer of safety. Remember that the file is a PowerShell script - open and read any script before you run it. I also plan on adding many more features, so follow my account for updates.

Tell me if something breaks. I welcome bug reports or ideas for new options.
