MightyTips

Lightweight tip broadcaster for Paper — sequential or random rotation, MiniMessage formatting, and optional update notifications.

Alternative options:

• Auto-broadcast tips to players with full MiniMessage support. Sequential or random rotation, per-player mute, and Modrinth update checker.
• Simple, config-driven tip plugin with clickable links, colors, and update notifications.

MightyTips is a lightweight plugin that broadcasts configurable tip messages to your players on a set interval. Perfect for server rules, hints, links, or promotional messages without spamming chat.

Features

• Sequential or random – Cycle tips in order or shuffle (no repeat until all have been shown).
• MiniMessage support – Full Adventure MiniMessage in config: colors, hex codes, bold, clickable links, hover text, and more. URLs in messages become clickable with a copy option.
• Per-player mute – Players can run /mtips to mute tips for themselves; admins can toggle tips globally with /mtips toggle.
• Config-driven – All messages and interval in config.yml. Reload with /mightytips reload (no restart).
• Update checker – Optional Modrinth update notifications for players with permission (notifies on join when a new version is available).
• Config migration – Upgrades keep your custom messages and comments when you update the plugin.
