JailMod
by Minhero
JailMod lets server staff send players to a jail, with reasons and timed sentences, on Fabric for 1.20.1.
What it does
Staff can jail a player for a stated reason and a set duration, in a way similar to the jail commands in EssentialsX. Only the server needs the mod; players join without installing anything. The mod is published for Fabric alone, with a single file for 1.20.1, and its code is not open source (All rights reserved).
Key features
Timed jail sentences
Each jailing takes a reason and a duration, so a player is released when the time runs out.
Escape prevention
A player held in jail cannot leave, and is teleported back if they move too far from the jail area.
Permission tab integration
A permissions integration tab and tab suggestions help staff manage jail permissions on the server.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
