ByteSessionRestore
ByteSessionRestore is a modular and high-performance plugin for PaperMC servers that automatically saves and restores player session data.
It ensures that player inventories, locations, and other critical data are preserved across disconnections, deaths, or world transitions.
Overview
When a player leaves, dies, or changes worlds, ByteSessionRestore captures a snapshot of their state and stores it safely.
Administrators can later restore these sessions manually or automatically, allowing for full recovery of items, experience, and locations.
The system is designed to be fast, reliable, and extensible — supporting different storage engines and compression strategies to adapt to any server environment.
