By automatically shutting down when no players are active, it transforms your setup into a **serverless-like environment**, saving CPU and RAM resources during downtime.<\/p>\n<p>## Supported Platforms<\/p>\n<p>* **Fabric**<br \/>\n* **NeoForge**<br \/>\n* **Paper**<br \/>\n* **Any Paper-Based** like Purpur.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>## Serverless Infrastructure with MC-Gate<\/p>\n<p>This mod is designed to work as the perfect companion for mc-gate.<\/p>\n<p>![MC-Gate waking up the server](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/8904ee9b6ef4c06e791c0562263d2b502606a3f3_0.webp)<\/p>\n<p>While **NoPlayerStop** handles the automated shutdown when your server is empty, **mc-gate** acts as a high-performance async proxy that stays online. When a player attempts to join or pings the server, **mc-gate** detects the traffic and executes a command to wake the server back up.<\/p>\n<p>Together, they create a fully automated **On-Demand** ecosystem: your server only consumes hardware resources when someone is actually playing.<\/p>\n<p>![MC-Gate Server online message](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/7b602c88f64930601b519bf2da32d63c0fd90643_0.webp)<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>## Key Features<\/p>\n<p>* **Smart Idle Detection**: Monitors player activity and triggers a shutdown sequence only when the server is truly empty.<br \/>\n* **Customizable Grace Period**: Configurable delays to ensure the server doesn&#8217;t shut down during quick relogs.<br \/>\n* **Live Countdown**: Provides real-time warnings in the console before the final shutdown occurs.<br \/>\n* **Webhook Integration**: Send automated notifications to **Discord** or custom web services the moment the server goes offline.<br \/>\n* **Native Performance**: Built to be as lightweight as possible with zero impact on tick rates or game performance.<\/p>\n<p>## Configuration<\/p>\n<p>The configuration file is generated automatically on the first run. You can adjust the following parameters:<\/p>\n<p>* `enabled`: Toggle the entire system on or off.<br \/>\n* `shutdown-delay`: How many seconds to wait after the last player leaves.<br \/>\n* `warning-seconds`: When to start broadcasting shutdown warnings.<br \/>\n* `min-players`: The player count threshold to start the timer (usually 0).<br \/>\n* `enable-webhooks`: Enable or disable external notifications.<br \/>\n* `webhook-url`: Your Discord or custom API endpoint.<br \/>\n* `webhook-body`: The JSON payload to send, supporting variables like `%time%` and `%last_player_active%`.<\/p>\n<p>## License<\/p>\n<p>This project is licensed under the **MIT License**.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A scriptable server-side mod &#038; plugin to auto-stop your Minecraft Servers when empty!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":113474,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"noplayerstop","_minecraft_project_id":"4ckz6DZv","_minecraft_author":"SirCesarium","_minecraft_license":"MIT","_minecraft_downloads":90,"_minecraft_follows":1,"_minecraft_client_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"noplayerstop.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":69952,"_minecraft_version_count":6,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T19:54:19.186848Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2026-03-30T04:08:53.337655Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-03-25T20:18:29.831011Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/noplayerstop","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":113474,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-06T16:23:51+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"aea169762e7992b35f9ee6144be1f145","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[97,89,126,158,90,127,123,92],"mod_loader":[99,160],"minecraft_version":[62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82],"class_list":["post-113473","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-management","mod_category-neoforge","mod_category-optimization","mod_category-paper","mod_category-technology","mod_category-utility","mod_loader-fabric","mod_loader-neoforge","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
