BlockMessage

BlockMessage is a simple Velocity plugin for temporarily blocking player connections during server maintenance or emergencies. It allows you to restrict server access with a single command, displaying custom messages to players in both the server list (MOTD) and upon connection attempts.

Features

Command-Based Blocking: Toggle connection blocking on and off in real-time with the /block <on|off> command, no server restart required.
Custom Kick Message: Fully customize the message shown to blocked players in config.yml. Multi-line messages and color codes are supported.
Custom MOTD: Change the MOTD (server description), version name, and player count displayed in the server list while blocking is active. This makes it easy to inform players about maintenance at a glance.
Permission Control: Restrict command usage to administrators with the blockmessage.command.admin permission.
Persistent Settings: The plugin's state is saved in config.yml, so your settings will be maintained even after restarting Velocity.
