Join Systems

All settings related to this can be found in the joinsystems.yml configuration file.

There are currently two join systems available:

  • Fixed number of sessions per day
  • Time based

It is also possible to enable both join systems at once. In this case players will only be able to join if conditions for both join systems are met (the player has sessions left and the server is open at this time of day).

Players with OP permissions can always join the server. If you do not want this, disable ignoreJoinSystemsAsOP.

Fixed number of sessions per day​

Every player will receive sessionsPerDay sessions every day. This join system can be disabled by setting sessionsPerDay to 0. The time at which new sessions are handed out can be configured in the main.yml config. If preProduceSessions is enabled, players are able to use up a specified number of their upcoming sessions in advance. For example setting preProduceSessions to 2 would allow players to play up to two of their sessions in advance. Enable catchUpSessions to allow players to play sessions they have missed on previous days, otherwise missed sessions will be removed when handing out new sessions.

Time based​

Players can join every day during a specified time period. The following example lets players join between 2 p.m. and 4:30 p.m.:

onlyJoinBetweenHours: true
onlyJoinBetweenHoursHour1: 14
onlyJoinBetweenHoursMinute1: 0
onlyJoinBetweenHoursHour2: 16
onlyJoinBetweenHoursMinute2: 30

Note the 24-hour time format, where 0 means midnight and 23 means 11 p.m. of the same day. Minutes should be a value between 0 and 59.

If kickAtServerClose is enabled, players will be kicked instantly once the specified time period is over, otherwise they will be kicked at the end of their session.
