SYXS Multi-Server

Seamlessly connect multiple Hytale server instances with simple in-game commands

📖 Overview

SYXS Multi-Server is a lightweight infrastructure plugin for Hytale server networks. It enables players to navigate between different server instances (Hub, Factions, PvP, Minigames, etc.) using simple chat commands, without requiring complex proxy solutions like BungeeCord or Velocity.

Perfect for server administrators running multiple game modes on the same host or network, this plugin provides instant server switching with a professional, customizable player experience.
