A mod to port pause-while-empty-seconds server property to older versions. Unlike some other mods, executeing commands while the server is paused still works.
When the server is paused the world tick gets skiped, after unpausing evereything continues as usual. It save peformance if the server has a lot chunk loaders.
Easy configuration with commands:
/pause status- shows if pausing is enabled and the delay./pause set delay <secconds>- sets the delay after which the server is paused./pause set enabled <true/false>- turn pausing on and off./pause reload- reload the config from file.
You can configure every setting individually in auto-pause.json
