DiscordStatusPlugin for Minecraft Servers

Overview

DiscordStatusPlugin is a sophisticated plugin designed for Paper 1.21 and later versions, offering seamless integration with Discord for automated server status updates and advanced tablist prefix management. It enhances server administration by providing tools for communication and organization, tailored for both players and staff.

Key Features

Discord Webhook Integration

Automatically sends visually appealing embed messages to a designated Discord channel when the server starts, stops, or when SOS mode is toggled, ensuring your community stays informed.

SOS Mode

Enables temporary restriction of player logins to administrators, owners, and moderators, making it ideal for maintenance or emergency scenarios.

Custom Tab Prefixes

Simplifies group management with customizable, color-coded prefixes in the tablist for Owners, Moderators, VIPs, and Default players, enhancing visual organization.

Tablist Customization

Supports dynamic tablist headers and footers with placeholders for TPS, ping, online player count, and server time, providing a personalized in-game experience.

In-Game Commands

/sos on|off: Toggles SOS mode to restrict or allow regular player logins.
/setprefix <Player> <Group>: Assigns a player to a specific tab prefix group.
/addprefix <Group>: Creates a new tab prefix group.
/removeprefix <Player>: Removes a player’s tab prefix group.
/setdiscord <link>: Updates the Discord invite link (requires permission).

How It Works

Server Online/Offline: Sends an embed message to the Discord channel when the server starts or stops, keeping the community updated.
SOS Mode: When enabled, restricts server access to staff (Owners/Moderators) and provides a custom kick message with the Discord invite link for other players.
Tab Prefixes: Allows customizable group prefixes in the tablist, managed through the tabconfig.yml configuration file.
Discord Webhook: Delivers server status updates as formatted Discord embeds with distinct colors for different events.

Configuration Files

config.yml: Manages tab prefix groups and player assignments.
tabconfig.yml: Customizes tablist headers, footers, and group prefix colors.
plugin.yml: Defines command registrations and associated permissions.
