LunarstarConnector
by Axolotl1000
LunarstarConnector routes a Minecraft client's traffic through a Cloudflare Tunnel, so players join a Lunarstar server by a domain name instead of its public IP address.
What it does
The mod replaces the server address a player enters with the tunnel address of the Lunarstar server. Cloudflared, the Cloudflare tunnel daemon, opens an outbound connection from the device to Cloudflare's global network, and Minecraft traffic then travels through that connection. Because the real IP address is not exposed on the public internet, the server's location stays hidden. A domain name also means players only need to type one address, while the remaining configuration is handled in the background.
The tunnel runs through Cloudflare's infrastructure and is described by the author as a faster and more secure route for the connection. Traffic that goes through the tunnel stays within the device, and the local address 127.127.127.127 is used for that loopback communication. The cloudflared executable starts with the game and stops when the game closes. If it is still running after exiting, it has to be closed manually.
The mod is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, so anyone can build it from the source code. It is published for Fabric only, in a single release for 1.21.1, with version 1.0.0 dated 2025-08-10. The code and issue tracker are public.
