Configuration

The plugin is fully configurable through config.yml.

Example configuration:

# If enabled, players who toggle night vision will keep it after
# death and when reconnecting to the server.
remember-toggle: true


# If true, Night Vision particles will appear around the player.
nv-particles: false

# If true, the Night Vision icon will appear in the player's HUD.
nv-hud-icon: false

# If true, players with toggled night vision cannot remove the effect
# by drinking milk.
prevent-milk-removal: true


# Action Bar Messages.
action-bar:
  enabled: true

  enabled-self: "&aNight vision enabled"
  disabled-self: "&cNight vision disabled"

  enabled-other: "&#55ff55Night vision enabled for &f%player%"
  disabled-other: "&#ff5555Night vision disabled for &f%player%"



# Chat Messages.
chat:
  enabled: false

  enabled-self: "&aNight vision enabled"
  disabled-self: "&cNight vision disabled"

  enabled-other: "&#55ff55Night vision enabled for &f%player%"
  disabled-other: "&#ff5555Night vision disabled for &f%player%"

reload-message: "&aLsNightVision configuration reloaded."

How it works

When a player toggles night vision:

• The plugin applies an infinite NIGHT_VISION potion effect.

• If remember-toggle is enabled, the plugin stores the player and reapplies night vision when they:

  • rejoin the server
  • respawn after death

This ensures players keep their chosen night vision state.

Compatibility

• Paper
• Spigot
• Purpur
