Simple serveroff

by fcdz0123

Simple serveroff is a NeoForge management mod that shuts a server down at a set time, by default 4:05 AM each day.

NeoForgeServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.1

What it does

A server owner configures a time at which the server shuts down on its own. The default is 4:05 AM every day. An external startup script with a loop can bring the server back up after each shutdown, which gives a scheduled restart without manual work. Routine maintenance and resource cleanup keep a server's long-term runtime load down, and the mod provides one simple, reliable schedule for that. It runs on the server only, so players join without installing anything. Released under the MIT License, the code is open source, and files target 1.21.1 alone.

Key features

  1. Timed automatic shutdown

    The server stops itself at the configured time instead of waiting for an operator to run a stop command.

  2. Default 4:05 AM schedule

    Without changes, the shutdown is set to 4:05 AM every day, a quiet hour for most communities.

  3. Restart loop with startup script

    An external startup script with a loop restarts the server after each shutdown, so the schedule keeps running unattended.
