Give new players configurable potion effects when they first join your server!
Description
New Player Effects is a lightweight server-side mod that automatically grants potion effects to players the very first time they join your server. Perfect for giving newcomers a head start or a warm welcome!
The effects persist through death and server restarts, and each effect has its own independent timer. Everything is managed through simple in-game commands — no config file editing needed.
Features:
- Automatically detects first time players
- Stack multiple effects with individual durations
- Effects survive death and server restarts
- Expires naturally when the timer runs out
- Zero client installation required — server side only
- Extremely lightweight, no performance impact
Commands (OP only):
/newplayereffects add <effect> <time>— add an effect for new players (time in minutes)/newplayereffects clear— remove all effects/newplayereffects reset <player>— reset a player so they receive effects again on next join
Example:
/newplayereffects add regeneration 30
/newplayereffects add resistance 60New players will receive both Regeneration for 30 minutes and Resistance for 60 minutes!
