SpawnProtection

SpawnProtection is a lightweight, performance-friendly, and fully customizable Minecraft plugin that enhances server fairness by preventing PvP abuse right after players join or respawn. Ideal for survival and PvP servers, this plugin ensures that newcomers or freshly respawned players are not instantly killed, while still allowing server owners full control over how protection works.

Features:

• Join & Respawn Protection
  Automatically grants temporary protection to players when they join the server or respawn, shielding them from PvP damage and preventing them from harming others.

• Tablist Indicator
  Protected players are clearly marked in the player list (tablist), making it easy for others to recognize who is currently invulnerable.

• Proximity Warning System
  When a protected player comes too close to someone who is unprotected (or vice versa), both players receive configurable warning messages to avoid accidental PvP encounters.

• Logout & Reconnect Support
  Players who disconnect while protected retain their remaining protection time when they rejoin, preventing abuse and improving the user experience.

• Early Expiry by Interaction
  Protection is automatically removed if the player performs certain restricted actions (e.g., attacking other players).

• Complete Customization
  Every aspect of the plugin – from protection duration, tablist formatting, warning messages, trigger actions, to behavior on logout – can be fully adjusted in the config file to suit your server’s playstyle and rules.

Why Use SpawnProtection?

SpawnProtection is the perfect addition for any server that values fair play, especially in competitive or semi-competitive environments. It prevents spawn camping, improves the onboarding experience for new players, and reduces frustration caused by instant PvP deaths after login or respawn.

Whether you're running a large PvP network or a small survival community, SpawnProtection offers just the right amount of safety, transparency, and control.
