AdvancedReplay

AdvancedReplay is a Replay system for Spigot 1.8 & 1.21. It can record players on your Server and save the recorded data to a file or database, so you can watch the replays at any time. Currently it records almost every action a player does and can be easily controlled with the commands.

⚠️ This Plugin needs ProtocolLib to run.
