The All-in-One Security System for your Velocity Proxy

ProxyFlow is the ultimate security solution for Minecraft server networks based on Velocity. Version 1.4.0 introduces massive performance improvements through Asynchronous Processing, Caching, and Database Support.

It proactively protects your network from bot attacks, VPN bypasses, and exploits while providing your team with essential tools like a global StaffChat and Discord integration.

Features

Security System

Protect your network before malicious connections even reach your backend servers.

• Intelligent VPN & Proxy Blocker:

• Blocks connections via anonymous networks (VPNs/Proxies).

• NEW: Uses an intelligent Caching System (stores results for X minutes) to save API limits and prevent join lag.

• Requires a free API key from proxycheck.io.

• Persistent Punishments (SQLite):

• NEW: Temporary bans (e.g., triggered by Anti-Bot) are now stored in a local SQLite database (database.db). Bans remain active even after a proxy restart!

• Country Blocker (GeoIP): Whitelist or Blacklist specific countries.

• Anti-Bot & Anti-Exploit:

• Detects inhumanly fast connection attempts.

• Blocks invalid usernames.

• Prevents packet exploits at the proxy level.

• Multi-Account Protection: Limits the number of players allowed to join from the same IP address.

Discord Integration (NEW)

Connect your proxy to Discord via Webhooks:

• Notifications for VPN/Bot blocks (includes IP and username).
• Notifications for Maintenance Mode status changes.
• Fully asynchronous – your server will never lag, even if Discord is slow to respond.

Global StaffChat (NEW)

Communicate with your team across all servers:

• Command: /sc <message> or /staffchat <message>
• Toggle Mode: Use /sc without arguments to automatically send all your chat messages to the staff chat.

Maintenance System

• Custom MOTD: Displays maintenance status directly in the server list (supports color codes).
• Auto-Kick: Disconnects players without permission during maintenance.
• Bypass: Staff members with permission can still join.

Queue System

• Redirects players to a queue server if the target server (Lobby) is full.
• Priority support for VIPs/Staff.

2. Place the file into the plugins folder of your Velocity Proxy.
3. Important: Ensure Java 21 is installed.
