Backbone

The Modern All-in-One Core for Bukkit, Spigot & Paper

[Permissions] • [About] • [Modules]

Backbone serves as a robust, modern foundation for Minecraft servers. Developed with performance, simplicity, and flexibility in mind, Backbone eliminates the need for dozens of fragmented plugins by replacing them with a single, highly optimized solution.

Every single module can be toggled on or off in the config.yml. When a module is disabled, its commands are dynamically purged from the server's command tree, keeping your client autocompletion clean and clutter-free.

✨ Key Features

🧙‍♂️ Interactive Setup Wizard

• Zero-Config Editing: Configure your entire server directly in-game without touching a single YAML file.
• Step-by-Step Guidance: Run /backbone setup to walk through interactive chapters for languages, chat, scoreboards, ranks, economy, and performance modes.
• Clickable Chat Controls: Intuitive buttons and live chat prompts make server deployment fast and foolproof.

👑 Ranks, Permissions & Temporary Ranks

• Permanent & Temporary Ranks: Assign ranks permanently or with flexible durations (e.g. /setrank player VIP 30d, 1y, 2w). Automatically reverts to previous or default ranks when expired.
• Rank Shop: Integrated in-game GUI shop (/rank shop) allowing players to buy permanent or timed ranks using in-game currency.
• Prefixes & Name Colors: Full RGB / Hex color support (), custom player prefixes, and protection against unauthorized staff prefix impersonation.
• Vault Support: Seamless synchronization with external permission and chat plugins.

🛡️ AutoMod & Moderation Suite

• Automated Chat Protection: Real-time anti-spam, anti-advertising (detects domains, IPs, and Discord invites), and an intelligent word filter that catches obfuscation and leetspeak typos.
• Punishment System: Built-in commands for /ban, /unban, /mute, /unmute, /kick, and a persistent warning system (/warn & /warns).
• Moderation History: Full chronological sanction history stored per player for complete staff auditing.

💬 Chat Management

• Slowchat: Throttle public chat speed on demand or with durations (/slowchat 10m) to prevent chat floods. Staff can bypass with backbone.slowchat.bypass.
• Staff Chat: Secure, private communication channel for staff members (/staffchat or /sc).
• Chat Clear: Instantly wipe public chat (/chatclear) with bypass permission for team members.
• Private Messaging: Fast private messaging with tab-completion (/msg & /reply).

🏃 Essentials & Teleportation

• Player Utilities: Instant health and food recovery (/heal, /feed), custom fly/walk speed scaling (/speed 1-100), player head generator (/skull), and portable workbench (/craft).
• Safe Item Disposal: Open an instant trash bin (/trash) that permanently destroys discarded items upon closing.
• Death Location (Back): Teleport straight back to your last death coordinate with /back.
• Teleport Suite: Interactive clickable TPA system (/tpa, /tpaccept, /tpdeny), multi-world spawns (/spawn), server lobby (/lobby), warps with blacklist permissions, and multiple homes (/sethome, /home).

💼 Live & Offline Inventory Inspection

📢 Dynamic Action Bar & Scoreboards

• Action Bar Broadcasts: Send timed or permanent action bar alerts (/actionbar broadcast <text> <duration|perm>) with second-by-second live refreshes to prevent Minecraft's default fade-out.
• Logic & Animation Tags: Full support for <if var op val> conditional logic, rotating <switch sek=X> tags, and centered lines.
• Scoreboard Engine: Flicker-free, multi-world scoreboards packed with live performance and player placeholders.

• RAM Monitor: Breakdown memory consumption by JVM pools, world tiles, and plugins with /ram.
• Active RAM Compacting: Run /compact to offload unused file caches from RAM to disk immediately, saving valuable memory.
• Dynamic Command Unregistration: Disabled modules completely disappear from the Brigadier command tree, showing as unknown red commands to players.

Designed for server administrators who demand high performance, clean code, and zero clutter.
