Permission Levels

by black_dog20

Permission Levels replaces vanilla's /op command so operators can be granted a chosen permission level from 1 to 4 instead of the default.

ForgeNeoForgeClient or server, optionalAll rights reserved1.18.2 – 1.20.4

What it does

Permission Levels overrides the vanilla op command, so an operator can be assigned a specific permission level with a value between 1 and 4, matching the levels described on the Minecraft Wiki. Another mod may also add an xop command that works like op and is also overridden here. A bypassPlayerLimit command takes a player and a boolean, which sets whether that player is allowed to bypass the server player limit. Because the mod makes level 3 operators able to request level 4, level 3 access should be given with care, since it opens the op command itself.

The mod is a server-side utility. Only the server needs it, and players connect without installing anything. Level 1 operators can use some commands, while level 4 gives the full list, including stopping the server. Permission Levels is published for Forge and NeoForge across 7 release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.20.4. The code is not open source and the mod is released under All rights reserved. The source code and issue tracker are publicly linked.

Key features

  1. Operator level assignment

    The op command accepts a permission level argument from 1 to 4, replacing the vanilla default.

  2. Overridden xop command

    An xop command that another mod adds is overridden by this mod too, so both commands follow the same levels.

  3. Player limit bypass

    A bypassPlayerLimit command lets an operator decide, per player, whether that player can join a full server.

  4. Level 3 to 4 elevation

    Operators at level 3 can request level 4, which is useful to know before handing out level 3 access.

Questions

Does the server need Permission Levels installed?

Yes. It is a server-side mod, so the server must run it. Players can join without installing it, and it works on either side, with neither side strictly needing it.

Which Forge or NeoForge versions are supported?

Files cover 1.18.2 – 1.20.4 across seven release versions. The latest Forge file is 1.20.1-1.0.5 for 1.20.1, and the latest NeoForge file is 1.20.4-1.0.5 for 1.20.4.

Why is level 3 access a risk with this mod?

Operators at level 3 can request level 4 through the mod, so granting level 3 also grants access to the op command. Server owners should decide carefully who receives it.
