RestartPlusPlus

RestartPlusPlus
A powerful, fully configurable server restart system with immersive countdowns.

RestartPlusPlus makes scheduled Minecraft server restarts simple, reliable, and player-friendly. Instead of abruptly restarting your server, give your players clear countdown notifications through chat, action bars, boss bars, titles, and sounds.

Everything is designed to be highly configurable, allowing you to customize the restart experience to match your server.
