VelocitySlots

VelocitySlots is a simple Velocity (and BungeeCord) plugin that fakes the maximum player slots in your server’s MOTD.

• Supports dynamic slot adjustment based on online players with an offset.
• Can also be set to a static number or an “unlimited” mode.
• Lightweight and requires no other plugin dependencies.

---

Features

• DYNAMIC mode: Show online players + offset as max slots.
• STATIC mode: Always show a fixed maximum slot number.
• Configurable via config.yml.

Installation

1. Place the VelocitySlots.jar in your plugins/ folder.
2. Start Velocity — a default config.yml will be generated automatically.
3. Stop Velocity and edit plugins/VelocitySlots/config.yml as needed.
4. Restart Velocity to apply changes.

Configuration (config.yml)

# ----------------------------------------------------------
# VelocitySlots Configuration File
# ----------------------------------------------------------
# This file allows you to control the "max slots" displayed
# in your server list (the MOTD), without affecting the real
# number of online players.
#
# You can configure static numbers and dynamic slots.
# All settings here only affect the max players shown 
# to clients.
#
# Keep in mind, this is fake max slots, meaning if for
# example the max slots of your server is at 200 players,
# the limit will still work.
# ----------------------------------------------------------

------------------------

MAX SLOTS MODE

------------------------

Choose how the max slots should be displayed.

Options:

DYNAMIC -> max slots = online players + offset

STATIC -> max slots = static-slots value

max-slots-mode: DYNAMIC

------------------------

DYNAMIC MODE SETTINGS

------------------------

Only used if max-slots-mode is set to DYNAMIC.

The plugin will take the real online player count and

add the offset. This makes the server appear fuller.

Example: 50 players online + offset 10 => 50/60 shown

offset: 0

------------------------

STATIC MODE SETTINGS

------------------------

Only used if max-slots-mode is set to STATIC.

This number will always be shown as the max slots in the

server ping, regardless of the actual player count.

Example: static-slots: 1 will show 20/1 if 20 are online

static-slots: 100

------------------------

NOTES

------------------------

1. Only the max slots value is changed; online players

always display the real count.

2. Offset is ignored in STATIC modes.

3. Setting max-slots-mode: DYNAMIC with offset: 0

simply mirrors the current online count as max slots.

4. You can adjust these values at any time; the changes

will take effect immediately for the next server ping.

## Example

If you have **50 players online** and `offset: 10` in FAKE mode:

MOTD: 50/60
