# NovaSync<\/p>\n

**By Seidr Labs** \u2014 server-side Minecraft tooling for Paper 1.21+.<\/p>\n

A complete admin and networking backbone for Paper 1.21.11 servers \u2014 **one plugin** that bundles a web dashboard, anti-cheat, standalone economy, automated backups, and an opt-in multi-server sync layer. No Vault required, no other plugins required to function.<\/p>\n

## Features (works out of the box)<\/p>\n

### Live Web Dashboard<\/p>\n

Run your server from any browser. Real-time player list, TPS \/ memory \/ entity graphs, plugin manager, log viewer, and admin actions. No SSH, no RCON, no console window. Mobile-friendly. Served by the plugin itself on a configurable port (default `8585`), accessible at `http:\/\/:8585\/dashboard` after first boot.<\/p>\n

### Quick Admin Tools<\/p>\n

One-click moderation from the dashboard:<\/p>\n

– **Inspect Inventory** \u2014 see any online player’s full inventory plus armour and offhand
\n– **Spectate, Unfreeze, Op-self, Remove God-mode** \u2014 instant actions while griefers are still mid-grief
\n– **Player lookup, kick, ban, promote** \u2014 all from the web UI<\/p>\n

### Built-in 7-Tier Anti-Cheat<\/p>\n

Fly, speed, kill-aura, reach, scaffold, no-fall, and packet-flood detection. Tunable thresholds via dashboard, full offence log, and no-false-ban handling on lag spikes. Bedrock-aware: auto-exempts Floodgate players from Java-only movement checks if Floodgate is installed.<\/p>\n

### Standalone Economy<\/p>\n

`\/bal`, `\/pay`, `\/baltop`, `\/eco` commands work without Vault. Sign-based player shops with buy\/sell modes. Optional Vault bridge if you want to integrate with other economy plugins.<\/p>\n

### Automatic Backups<\/p>\n

Scheduled world backups with disk-aware retention (won’t fill your disk). Optional offsite S3 upload if configured. Config-file versioning so you can roll back any config change made via the dashboard.<\/p>\n

### LuckPerms Integration (if installed)<\/p>\n

NovaSync auto-detects LuckPerms and syncs its admin \/ donator \/ member role tiers through it. Configurable default role for new joiners. Works without LuckPerms too \u2014 the role system has its own permission backend as a fallback.<\/p>\n

### Built-in Update Manager<\/p>\n

Plugin checks for new versions, downloads, and applies updates with a single dashboard click. Backup of the previous jar kept in `plugins\/.replaced\/` for rollback.<\/p>\n

## Optional integrations (require those plugins installed separately)<\/p>\n

– **Simple Voice Chat** \u2014 NovaSync hooks for in-game voice, mobile-friendly voice tokens, voice host management in the dashboard
\n– **Geyser-Spigot + Floodgate** \u2014 Bedrock client support; NovaSync provides Bedrock-specific UIs (Floodgate CustomForm), mobile voice token system, and Bedrock-aware admin tools
\n– **CoreProtect** \u2014 block-rollback hooks
\n– **ViaVersion + ViaBackwards** \u2014 protocol bridging if your Geyser version is newer than Paper’s native protocol<\/p>\n

NovaSync detects each at boot and only activates the integration if the partner plugin is present. None are required for the core feature set above.<\/p>\n

## Optional: multi-server sync (advanced)<\/p>\n

Run multiple Paper servers as one network \u2014 shared economy, role sync, cross-server player lookups, peer-relayed admin actions. Disabled by default. Enable in `config.yml` if you operate more than one node and want them to behave as a single shared world. Otherwise NovaSync runs standalone.<\/p>\n

## Installation<\/p>\n

1. Drop `NovaSyncPlugin-X.X.X.jar` into your server’s `plugins\/` folder
\n2. Start the server. NovaSync creates default `plugins\/NovaSyncPlugin\/config.yml` on first boot
\n3. Open `http:\/\/:8585\/dashboard` in a browser
\n4. Complete the first-run setup wizard (admin username and password)
\n5. (Optional) Edit `config.yml` to enable multi-node sync, OpenAI integration, or other advanced features<\/p>\n

Default port `8585` is configurable in `config.yml` under `http-api.port`.<\/p>\n

## Requirements<\/p>\n

– Paper **1.21.11** or compatible build
\n– Java **21+**
\n– Roughly 64 MB extra RAM for the dashboard and sync subsystems<\/p>\n

## Production status<\/p>\n

NovaSync runs the Nova AI Minecraft network \u2014 two Paper 1.21.11 nodes (Hetzner EU and Hyperlayer South Africa), shared world, continuous-deployment, hundreds of players over months. It is not a beta.<\/p>\n
