Auto Logout
by sylwekkudaj
Auto Logout makes a server kick a player automatically once another player enters a radius the server owner sets, from 5 to 10,000 blocks.
What it does
The mod watches the area around each connected player. When another player comes within the configured detection range, the player is logged out at once. A notification-only setting can be used instead, so the server reports the proximity without disconnecting anyone. The detection range is customizable, and the mod is described as lightweight, running quietly in the background with a small performance cost.
The mod is intended for AFK farming, mining in dangerous areas and similar play where a player wants to leave quickly when someone approaches. Players are asked to use it responsibly and to respect server rules, since it is only a detection tool. It runs on Fabric and Forge and is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. Files cover 1.21 – 1.21.11 across 12 release versions, released under the MIT License and not open source.
Key features
Configurable detection range
Server owners set the radius in blocks, with values from 5 up to 10,000 blocks.
Instant logout
When a nearby player is detected, the affected player is disconnected without delay, based on the configured settings.
Notification-only mode
An optional mode reports nearby players instead of disconnecting the player, leaving the decision to the one who is online.
Background monitoring
The mod checks surroundings continuously and keeps its load on the server low while it runs.

Who it’s for: Server owners who want a proximity logout rule for AFK or safety play, and players who run unattended farms on servers that allow it. Servers should check their own rules before enabling automatic logouts.
How it compares
Bodebojo's AFK Display is a server-required mod with client support optional, published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 1.21 – 1.21.8 under the MIT License, and it is not open source. Logout Timer is client-side only, for Fabric and 1.21.4, under the MIT License, and not open source. AFK Utilitys is client-side only, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.21 – 1.21.11 on Fabric. Auto Logout differs because it runs on the server and removes players from the game.
