Custom MOTD

Paper plugin for easily modifying the MOTD, player limit, and listed player info (message when hovering cursor over the player count). Compatible exclusively with Paper, utilising the modern PaperServerListPingEvent listener. Designed for simplicity & tailored for the newest versions of the game.

Commands & Permissions:

• /max-players <int> (alias: /set-max-players) - set server player limit from in-game (also sets it in config)
• /motd-reload - reload the config

Both commands require the permission custommotd.admin.

Default config:

# Uses Adventure's MiniMessage: https://docs.advntr.dev/minimessage/format.html
motd:
  line1: "First line"
  line2: "Second line"

# Uses legacy colour codes (e.g., §a, §1)
enable_hover_message: true
player_hover_message:
  - "First line"
  - "Second line"

# Set -1 to leave unchanged
max_players: 50
