Scheduled Restart
Scheduled and manual server restarts with countdown warnings and a clean kick. Server-side only.
Features
- Restarts at fixed local times every day (
dailyTimes, e.g.04:00,16:00) and/or every N hours since boot (intervalHours). - Countdown warnings in chat at each second mark in
warnSeconds(default 10 min, 5 min, 1 min, 30 s, then 10 to 1). /restart in <duration>(10m, 90s, 1h30m),/restart now,/restart cancel,/restart status. Operators only.- Right before the stop every online player is kicked with the final message, so clients see a clean reason instead of a lost connection (
kickBeforeStop). - Uses the server's own stop, so whatever restarts your server today (start script loop, panel, systemd) brings it back.
- Every schedule decision (next restart armed, scheduled, cancelled, executed) is logged in the console.

The mod stops the server; it does not start it again. Keep your usual restart loop (start script, panel or systemd) and it comes straight back.
Install: drop the jar into the server's mods/ folder and restart. Licence: MIT.
