Potato Restart

PotatoRestart
A clean, lightweight, and fully configurable automatic restart plugin for Minecraft servers.

PotatoRestart gives server owners complete control over when and how their server restarts. Schedule restarts for specific days and times, create custom countdown warnings, and manage everything through simple commands and permissions.

Features

• Scheduled Restarts — Set exact restart times for every day of the week.
  
  
• Daily Restarts — Easily configure a restart to happen every day.
  
  
• Custom Warning Messages — Create unlimited warning messages and choose exactly when each one is sent.
  
  
• Flexible Warning Times — Use times such as 10m, 5m, 1m, 30s, and 10s.
  
  
• PlaceholderAPI Support — Use PlaceholderAPI placeholders directly inside your messages.
  
  
• Restart Time Placeholder — %potatorestart_time% displays the remaining time until the next restart in hours and minutes.
  
  
• Color Support — Supports standard Minecraft color codes and HEX colors such as &#FF5555.
  
  
• Fully Customizable Messages — Every plugin message can be edited through the configuration.
  
  
• LuckPerms Compatible — Control exactly which players or staff members can use each command.
  
  
• Lightweight & Optimized — Designed to have minimal impact on server performance.
