RestartAnnouncer – What’s It All About?

RestartAnnouncer is a super-light Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that makes sure nobody gets caught off guard by a server reboot. It won’t actually restart anything on its own—it just gives you friendly heads-up messages so you and your friends can save, log off, or finish up before the server goes down.

Here’s the lowdown:

1. Automatic Reminders

   • Pick one or more daily reboot times in config/restartannouncer.json.
   • You’ll see chat pop‑ups 5, 3, and 1 minute before each scheduled restart.
   • At the 5‑minute mark, everyone hears a little “pling” (BLOCK_BELL_USE) so you don’t miss it.

• DIY Alerts

  • /rsa send <minutes> instantly shouts “Restart in X minutes” to all players.
  • Add sound (/rsa send <minutes> sound) if you want that little “pling” too.
  • /rsa clock shows you the server’s current time (HH:mm:ss) if you need to sync up.

• OP‑Only Config Tools

  • /rsa config reload reloads your JSON file and confirms your schedule (or tells you “No times set”).
  • /rsa plan list shows every reboot time you’ve set.
  • /rsa plan add <HH-mm> and /rsa plan remove <HH-mm> let you tweak your daily schedule without ever leaving the game.

• One‑Time OP Reminder

  • The first time any operator logs in with RestartAnnouncer installed, they get a quick tip about the /rsa plan commands—just one time, ever.
  • Those OPs’ IDs are saved in config/restartannouncer-notified.txt, so you won’t spam them on every restart.

• Why It’s Great

  • No surprise shutdowns—players get a fair warning.
  • Easy in‑game setup, zero file‑editing once it’s installed.
  • Lightweight: one thread that checks every minute, barely a blip on performance.

• Getting Started

  • Drop restartannouncer.jar into your mods/ folder.
  • Restart your server—config file auto‑generates.
  • Edit your times, run /rsa config reload, and you’re all set.

Put an end to sudden server restarts and keep everyone happy. RestartAnnouncer’s got your back!
