- What is the plugin
Advanced AFK Zone is a lightweight, lag-free plugin that rewards idle players when they teleport to a safe, custom-generated End dimension. While AFK, players passively collect "Shards" which can be used to purchase premium items, gear, and custom rewards from a fully configurable built-in GUI shop. This system turns inactive playtime into meaningful progression without clogging up main-world mob farms or harming server TPS.
- Main features
Custom Dimension Generation: Automatically builds a safe, stylized End dimension (with a glass dome, paths, houses, and trees) specifically for AFK players and it can be changed by server owner.
Zero Lag Impact: Aggressively clears and prevents mob spawning,
Shard Economy: Introduces a unique, currency ("Shards") that players earn automatically while idling in the AFK Zone.
Built-in GUI Shop: A fully customizable, large inventory shop where players can spend their Shards on Max Enchanted Netherite gear, Elytras, and other premium items by deffault.
PlaceholderAPI Support: Fully integrated with PlaceholderAPI (using %afkzone_shards%) so you can display Shard balances on scoreboards, holograms, or chat formats.
Safe Teleportation: Automatically saves the player's previous location and safely handles their teleportation back and forth without glitches or death risks.
- Why use it?
Unmanaged AFK players can ruin your server's TPS by keeping main-world mob farms and redstone chunks loaded. Advanced AFK Zone solves this by safely moving them to an isolated, 0-lag custom dimension. Not only does this save your server performance, but the built-in Shard economy gives players a fun, long-term reason to stay online!
