🤫 PrivateStatus
With PrivateStatus you can hide the online status of your server from unwanted players. This is especially worthwhile for private servers with a whitelist to prevent this. This plugin only works on Paper 1.20+ and is not compatible with Spigot. This is because this plugin relies on the so called ServerListPingEvent which can only be cancelled when using Paper.
Configuration
The configuration is in plugins/PrivateStatus/config.yml and looks like this. Please only edit the expiration-minutes option. The known-addresses section is managed by the plugin itself. The option expiration-minutes defines how long an address should be kept in the history. The plugin automatically checks every 10 minutes if entries expired. If so, it removes them.
# The amount of minutes after which addresses will expire. Minimum: 10.
expiration-minutes: 1440
# A list of already known addresses.
known-addresses: {}
