Welcome to Server Enhancements!

Server Enhancements brings server administration, player convenience, and automatic server mod profiles together in one universal Fabric and Velocity JAR.

Protect worlds and regions, run commands when players enter an area, configure exact world-entry spawns, save personal homes, organize chat, and switch between servers with different mod requirements.

World Protection

World Protection allows operators to protect an entire dimension or create precisely sized protected and unprotected regions.

Protected players cannot:

• Break or place blocks
• Attack or interact with most entities, or perform restricted world interactions
• Pick up or drop items
• Remove items from protected storage containers

Players can still use buttons, pressure plates, menus, crafting and processing stations, and permitted container interactions, including Inventory Enhancements sorting.

Protection can apply to everyone or specific players. Individual players can also be included in or excluded from a region, including players who are currently offline.

Regions are edited directly in the world using visible block-edge borders and corners. Operators can grab an edge or corner, move it with their position, and right-click again to save it.

Additional tools include personal and forced visualization, temporary join previews, clickable region lists, deletion confirmation, and undo and redo history.

World Protection Commands

Command Regions

Command Regions are invisible areas that activate when a player enters them.

A region can:

• Run a server command
• Send a formatted chat message
• Transfer the player to another Velocity server
• Limit how many times each player can activate it
• Exclude selected players from activating it

Commands run with server authority while keeping @s connected to the player who entered the region. Messages support standard & formatting codes, hexadecimal colors such as &#55FF55, and \n line breaks.

Regions can be created using a starting radius or by selecting individual block positions and combining their outer edges into one precise area. A /server <name> action also uses Managed Server Profiles when configured, including consent and any necessary profile change.

Only operators can see and edit Command Region borders:

Per-Player Use Limits

The u=[number] setting controls how many times each individual player may ever activate a Command Region.

The limit is tracked separately for every player and persists across logouts and server restarts. Once a player reaches the limit, entering that region again will no longer run its command or message for them.

Use this to give new players a starter kit once, display first-join instructions, offer one-time rewards, or teleport a player through an introductory route only once or twice.

The limit applies per player, not collectively to the server. With u=[1], every player receives their own single activation.

Command Region Commands

Exact World Spawns

Operators can configure an exact entry spawn for each dimension, including the player's position, facing direction, and camera angle.

An entry spawn can be applied every time a player enters the dimension or only for each player's first selected number of entries. The limited-entry setting also uses u=[number], but applies to dimension entries instead of Command Region activations.

• u=[1] sends each player to the exact spawn on their first entry.
• u=[2] sends each player there for their first two entries.
• u=[0] disables automatic entry-spawn teleporting.
• Forced mode sends players to the spawn every time, regardless of prior entries.

The /spawn command remains available for manual teleportation and does not consume a limited automatic entry use.

When no exact entry-spawn policy applies, saved safe positions outside Command Regions help prevent players who disconnect inside a trigger from repeatedly activating it when they return.

World Spawn Commands

Command Region u=[0] means unlimited activations. World Spawn u=[0] disables automatic teleporting; use /world-spawn force on for every-entry teleporting.

Player Homes

Every player can save one personal home across the entire world save.

A home includes its dimension, exact position, facing direction, and camera angle. Setting a new home replaces the previous one, even when it is located in another dimension.

Players can also request that someone else teleport to their home. The receiving player must manually accept the request, and both players receive clear status messages.

Homes are owned by UUID, so changing a username does not disconnect a player from their saved home. Previous names continue to resolve to the same player, and operators can manage homes belonging to offline players.

Home Commands

Operator commands support saved offline players. Known online, network-wide, and saved offline names are included in command suggestions where available.

Improved Chat Window

When Server Enhancements is installed on the client, the chat window is divided into two tabs:

• Chat for messages from other players
• System for command output and server-sent messages

Submitting a command automatically switches to the System tab.

When a message arrives in the inactive tab, a small red notification dot appears. A brief italic notification also appears alongside the composer so players know whether they received a new Chat or Server message.

The chat interface uses a compact layout and the readable Lexend font throughout its messages, input field, command suggestions, and tabs. Profile consent, loading, and error screens use the same visual style.

Managed Server Profiles

Want to have different mods on different servers, without making your players switch modpacks every time? This allows them to do exactly that!

For example, you could have one server running your usual survival mods and another with an extra mod that adds new tools, blocks, and recipes. When a player switches between them, Server Enhancements prepares the correct mods for the server they are joining.

Here's how it works:

• The server provides the actual JAR files it uses, so players receive the matching versions directly from that server.
• Players review the mod list and choose whether to accept before anything is downloaded.
• If their active mods already match, they can join without restarting!
• If the mods are different, Server Enhancements creates a separate temporary profile and handles the Minecraft restart and connection for them. A loading screen stays visible while the next instance prepares.
• Their usual Minecraft profile and any mods they installed themselves are left alone.

This also works when a Command Region sends a player to another server using /server!

Choosing Which Mods to Accept

Before joining, players can see the full list of mods for that server, including the ones they already have. The differences are highlighted so they are easy to spot:

Each mod can also have clickable CurseForge and/or Modrinth links beside its name, along with its verification status.

Players are asked each time by default, even if no restart is needed. They can check “Do not show again unless this profile changes” if they prefer. If that server's mods or linked pages change, they will be asked again.

Pressing Decline cancels the switch and leaves the player on their current server when they are still connected. If they were joining for the first time, it returns them to the menu.

Checking the Mod Files

A link to a mod page alone doesn't prove that the server is providing that mod's real file. Server Enhancements checks the offered files against the linked project's published files, and the player's own client performs its own checks before the download is accepted.

After downloading, the client checks the files again before using them. These checks are repeated on each request.

An unpublished mod can still be used, but it will show as Unverified. CurseForge-only links may also remain unverified because of the information available for comparison. Modrinth supports the stronger matching used for a published match.

If the server's results and the player's checks disagree, or the results change after the player accepts, another warning appears before continuing—even if they checked “Do not show again.”

Please only accept mods from servers you trust! A published match confirms that the file matches the mod page; it does not guarantee that the mod is safe.

Keeping Your Settings and Shaders

You shouldn't have to set up your shaders and preferences every time you change servers!

• Personal configs stored in supported locations, Minecraft options, shader packs, and shader settings carry between profiles and mod updates.
• Configs provided specifically by a server stay separate from your personal settings.
• Temporary installed mods are cleaned up after you exit the managed session. Your personal settings and shaders are kept for next time.
• Downloaded files may be kept in a separate cache to save downloading them again, but they are still checked before reuse.

Some mods save their settings in unusual places and may need additional support.

Installation and Compatibility

Server Enhancements uses one universal JAR for Minecraft 26.2, Fabric, and Velocity.

The JAR includes its required Fabric API support; players do not need a separate profile manager or installer.

Server administrators must configure the advertised profile and its file source on each participating backend and on Velocity when used. Profiles can use the server's actual mod directory as their source. Exclude server-only JARs and private server configuration from anything offered to players. Installing the JAR alone does not configure a complete server profile.

Velocity enables cross-server Command Regions, network-wide player-name suggestions, and coordinated profile switching between its backends.

Saved regions, world spawns, protection settings, and player homes are stored with the main world save and included in full-world backups.
