## The Problem This Solves<\/p>\n
Most SMP launches fail because borders are wrong, players are scattered, and early damage or griefing happens before anyone is ready. Muzlik’s SMP Starter gives you a predictable, repeatable launch flow with balanced early-game defaults that keep players safe and synced.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Feature Set<\/p>\n
| Countdown System | Border Control | Player Safety | Admin Control |
\n|:–|:–|:–|:–|
\n| Titles, sounds, chat, boss bar | Pre-start and final border | Spawn safety + block protection | Cancel, reset, reload |<\/p>\n
– Countdown boss bar with clean transitions
\n– World border management with configurable center (spawn or fixed)
\n– Pre-start safety: block protection and spawn safety inside the border
\n– PvP protection with boss bar and warnings after launch
\n– Join reminders for offline OPs
\n– Minimum online player gate
\n– Full SMP reset to pre-start state
\n– Phase-based difficulty and mob rules for early-game balance
\n– Configurable border transition and damage settings<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Launch Flow<\/p>\n
1. Admin runs `\/smp start`
\n2. Countdown begins with effects and boss bar
\n3. Border expands to final size
\n4. PvP protection starts for the configured duration
\n5. Cooldown prevents spam restarts<\/p>\n
