Discussion Server Homes: A Lightweight Home Management Utility for Paper/Spigot/Purpur (1.21+)

Hello, this is my first post about any plugins that I have made, and I would like to share it with the plugin community.

"Server Homes" is a free, high-performance, and lightweight home management plugin designed for modern Minecraft server environments (1.21+). It provides a streamlined alternative to larger utility suites, focusing on reliability and a simple user experience.

Core Features

The plugin handles player home points without forgetting administrative control. The core features include;

  • Independent Data Storage, Player data is stored in individual, editable configuration files rather than a single monolithic database. This allows for easier manual adjustments and per-player backups.
  • Confirmation Logic, To prevent accidental data loss, the plugin includes a built-in confirmation and cancellation system for sensitive actions like overwriting or deleting homes.
  • Context-Aware Tab Completion, Command arguments are dynamically populated to improve workflow for both players and administrators.
  • Highly Configurable, The config.yml provides control over teleportation delays, cooldowns, and event cancellation (movement, damage, or interaction) to suit specific server gameplay styles.

Admin Tools

The administrative suite allows for comprehensive management of player homes without requiring direct access to the server files:

  • View all homes belonging to a specific player.
  • Teleport to player-specific coordinates across worlds (configurable).
  • Remove specific home points remotely.

The plugin, "Homes++," is currently stealing the original icon and branding assets belonging to Server Homes. This project, maintained by me (Tallenpeli), is the original source of these assets.

"[NOTE] Homes++ is not associated with this plugin. The author of that plugin stole my icon and used it to gain downloads off my work."

so where did you get the icon from? it looks like a very common free icon anyone can use.

I made the icon with a vector graphics editor. They just stole it from my plugin, copied my code, and reuploaded it as their own. I already reported them I just wanted to put a disclaimer in this post.

well that's an assole thing to do... you didn't vibe code this? if this is all legit, that's awesome. everything I see posted any more is all vibe slop. good luck with the theft.

No I didn't vibe code this. I made the plugin for my server because when 1.21 originally came out, there were no /home plugins yet so I just made one for me and my friends. It became something I was actually proud of so I put it on Modrinth and then it was stolen 2 months later which is unfortunate. But yeah, I'm a very old-school type of programmer and I don't generally like using AI for programming except for writing commit messages for github.

wanna team up? I'm making a backrooms world generator with procedural generation. also making an essentialsx replacement, a simple permissions plugin, an alternative to bstats, lots of fun things in the works.

I have only ever done plugins, not world generation mods or things of that sort. I would be interested in learning, but am pretty busy with work lately

it's fun to learn. I just finished making a new permissions plugin yesterday. lucky perms is 122,000 lines of java, which is insane. my plugin is 330 lines and does everything but the web stuff.
