## Supported Platforms & Versions<\/p>\n

| Platform | Supported Versions |
\n|————————————|——————–|
\n| Bukkit (Spigot, Paper, Folia etc.) | 1.8.8 – 1.21.3 |
\n| Velocity | Latest Major |
\n| BungeeCord (or any forks) | Latest Major |<\/p>\n

## Features<\/p>\n

– **Completely Asynchronous** – The plugin is designed to be as lightweight as possible.
\n All packet modifications are done asynchronously, so the main thread is never blocked.
\n– **Folia Support** – The plugin integrates with Folia, which is a Paper fork that
\n adds regionised multithreading to the server.
\n– **Crash Detector** – By sending both a keep alive and transaction packet, the plugin can detect if a player has
\n crashed, even if the player is still connected.
\n– **Configurable** – The plugin is highly configurable, allowing you to adjust the settings to your liking.
\n– **Update Checker** – The plugin automatically checks for updates on startup.
\n If a new version is available, a message will be sent to the console.<\/p>\n

## Usage\/Examples<\/p>\n

– `\/crash (player) [Method]`<\/p>\n

> **Note:** The method parameter is optional. If no method is provided, the plugin will use the most appropriate method
\n> based on the player’s version.<\/p>\n

**Methods:**<\/p>\n

– `Explosion`
\n– `Particle`
\n– `Position`<\/p>\n

## Commands<\/p>\n

– `\/pc` – Displays the plugin’s version and author.
\n– `\/crash (player) [Method]` – Crashes the specified player’s game.
\n– `\/crashinfo [player]` – Displays the client brand and version of the specified player.<\/p>\n

## Permission Nodes<\/p>\n

Players that are OP (Operators) have these permissions by default.<\/p>\n

– `PlayerCrasher.Crash` Allows the player to use the \/crash command.
\n– `PlayerCrasher.Bypass` Exempts the player from being crashed when the \/crash command is used on them.
\n– `PlayerCrasher.Alerts` Makes the player receive alerts when a player is being crashed by another player.
\n– `PlayerCrasher.CrashInfo` – Allows the player to use the \/crashinfo command.
\n– `PlayerCrasher.UpdateNotify` Makes the player receive an update notification when a new version is available.<\/p>\n
