PvP Utilities
by Rsge
PvP Utilities adds server-side limits for player-versus-player servers, covering lives, playtime, experience level and command logging.
What it does
Server owners can cap how many lives a player has and set the reason a player is withdrawn from play, for example after a death, so the limit applies only to the player who was killed. A playtime limit and a configurable maximum experience level are available as well. Commands run on the server are logged, and the log lets an owner check which commands admins used.
Environment: the server runs the mod alone, so players join without installing anything. The mod targets Forge for 1.7.10 only, with 0.2.0 as the latest file. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public. The author notes the autoclicker denial feature is still buggy and that updates may come often, since the work is done in spare time.
