New Main
FirstJoinPlus allows you to control every aspect of when new players join. Give new players a starter kit, a special spawn location, have the console run commands, launch fireworks, and more!
Existing players won't get told they joined for the first time after installing this.
- Announce that a new player has just joined (optionally with the amount of unique players that have joined!).
- Launch a firework or show a cool smoke effect.
- Give the player a written book with welcome information (example book here)!
- Give a starter kit with items defined in the configuration.
- Force the player or the console to run configurable commands.
- Set the player as invincible (from everything, including PVP) for a pre-defined amount of time.
- Much more, check out the configuration below!
- New players not spawning at the first join spawnpoint?
You have a conflicting plugin. Set the teleport delay in the configuration to a higher value, such as 5 or 10 (this option is set in ticks).
- Want this plugin to kick in for every join instead of only first joins?
Set debug in the configuration to true - this will treat every join as a first join. Great for hub servers as you can have the player teleported back to spawn every join, launch a firework every join, and you can set the join and quit messages to %none to completely hide them.
