✨ Features

🪑 Chairs

• Right-click stairs, slabs or carpets with an empty hand to sit down.
• You face away from the backrest automatically and sit on the step, not inside it.
• Works with every stair, slab and carpet out of the box, read from Minecraft's own block tags, so new wood types from future updates work without a plugin update.
• Upside-down stairs, top slabs and blocks with no headroom are skipped, so nothing looks wrong.
• One player per chair. Break the chair and whoever sits on it stands up.
• Building still works: holding a block or sneaking never makes you sit.

💺 /sit

Sit down right where you stand. Run it again or sneak to get up.

🛌 /lay

Lie down on the ground. Lounge spawns a sleeping mannequin with your skin, armor and held items while your real body stays hidden. No packets, no NPC library, no fake players in the tab list. (Needs Minecraft 1.21.9+, the version that added mannequins.)

🐛 /crawl

Crawl on land in the swimming pose to get through 1-block gaps. Everyone sees you crawl and your hitbox really shrinks. Optional double-sneak to crawl. Sneak once to stand up.

🧍 Player stacking

Right-click a player to sit on their head. Make a tower of up to 3 (configurable). The player at the bottom sneaks to throw everyone off, and /lounge toggle stops others from sitting on you at all. The choice is saved on the player, so there's no database.

🧹 Clean and safe

• When you get up, you're put back where you were standing, so nobody gets stuck in stairs.
• Seats are invisible marker entities that are never saved to disk. A crash or /stop never leaves armor stands behind.
• Protection plugins are respected: if WorldGuard, GriefPrevention, Lands and the like deny the click, you don't sit.
• Quit, die, teleport or change worlds while sitting, and everything is cleaned up.

⚙️ Configuration

Everything can be switched off: chairs, /sit, /lay, /crawl and stacking, each with its own options. You can also turn Lounge off in chosen worlds. Add your own chairs in one line, by name or by tag:

chairs:
  blocks:
    '#stairs': 0.5
    '#slabs': 0.5
    '#wool_carpets': 0.0625
    hay_block: 1.0      # your own

All messages use MiniMessage (gradients, hover, click). English and Polish come included, and you can add your own lang/<name>.yml.

✅ Compatibility

Servers	Paper, Folia, Purpur and other Paper forks
Versions	1.20 → 26.x (/lay from 1.21.9)
Java	17+
Dependencies	None (PlaceholderAPI optional)

Tested with a real client and bots on Paper 1.20.6, 1.21.4, 1.21.11, 26.1.2 and Folia 1.20.6, and checked to start cleanly on Paper and Folia 26.3. Every seat runs on its player's own region scheduler, so it is fully Folia-safe, not just "it loads".
