RestrictedMode - Your server appears to be offline! (Bukkit/Spigot only)
Players without OP/Permissions will see this in their serverlist when RestrictedMode is ON.
Players with OP/Permissions will see this in their serverlist when RestrictedMode is ON.
SlotsPlusOne
SlotsPlusOne generates a custom slots count based on your online players. Often used by big server to fake an almost full server. In simple terms, you basically add one slot to your current number of online players.
Example: 10 players online - custom number: 1 - 11 slots --> 10/11
Example: 27 players online - custom number: 5 - 32 slots -- > 27/32
You can create a min and max limit to prevent from having for example 1 slot when no one is online.
OnlineMultiplier
OnlineMultiplier generates a fake online players count by multiplying it with a number set in config!
When the multiplied number gets above your min slots, it will adjust the slots by adding a custom number to it!
When the multiplied number gets above your max slots, it will set the online player count and slots to your max value -> see config (Example 100/100)
Example (Min Slots: 100):10 players online - multiply by 5 - 50 players online/ 100 slots (50 Players < Min Slots -> Min Slots = Slots and no adjustment with the custom number)
Example (Min Slots: 10) 12 players online - multiply by 2(24 Players + 5 -> CustomNumber ( = Slots) - 24 players online/ 29 slots
Example (Max Slots: 100): 50 players online - multiply by 3 - 100 players online / 100 slots (because 150 > 100)

Metrics
ServerlistMOTD (below X!) collects anonymous data. You cann see everthing over here at bStats:
Bungeecord: bStats *click me*
Spigot/Bukkit: bStats *click me*
I switched to bStats as mcstats.org is very unreliable. You can find the Metrics for ServerlistMOTD 1.0-6.2 right here: mcstats.org (if available)
ServerlistMOTD doesn't collect Metrics!
@Strumswell
Hey man, no worries. I enjoy your plugin no matter what. :)
Oh wow. I am so sorry. I remember you asked for that weeks ago. I was just looking at the tickets when doing the update. A ticket has been created from your comment... :-)
@Strumswell
Is there VanishNoPacket support so vanished players are not seen on the hovertext or random player/player variables?
Hey guys, I uploaded ServerlistMOTD 6.2 with some improvements and features. Update still needs approval but will be available in a few hours. Have fun! :-)
@VanillaTwilightDev
Yes, going to add it in the next update. :-)
Can you please add support for BanManager (for bans feature) http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/ban-management/
Thanks! - Vanilla
@Eremtheminer
Then you have fcked up something in the config. YML configs are very strict about the use of tabulator or special characters. And don't forget the ' before and after a text you put in. If this problem still persist just send me your changed config which reverts on every restart. By the way: Never use /reload on your server for a applying changes in your config. Use /serverlist reload. You should get an error in the console if somethings wrong with your config. You should send both the config+error to me.
@Strumswell
The config reverts to original everytime I save and restart the server?
@RazihelCraft
You mean ServerlistMOTD? Well, there is no official bungee support but I know that you can use the motd from on of your servers on the bungee. There should be an option in the bungee config.
@Strumswell
Possible to use on bungee?
@RazihelCraft
Nice. Gonna include VanishNoPacket support in the next update.
@Strumswell
I updated VanishNoPacket using a legacy method. I recompiled the plugin using BuildTools for Minecraft 1.9 and it works perfectly fine. :)
@RazihelCraft
Ok :-) You really use VanishNoPacket? Because there is no real 1.8/1.9 compatibility...
@Strumswell
Possible to add VanishNoPacket vanish status? This would really help out when a staff member is on the server, and in vanish. Players can easily find out if staff are online and vanished currently and it kinda defeats the purpose of a vanish plugin. Players usually find the vanished staff member through the hovertext thing by the way :L
@Riridu71
Use the %realslots% and %realonline% variable :-)
Hello, I would like to know how I can do that in "VersionText" I can make it there have the actual number of players sign and not a false number.
Thank you
@InvincibleM
Thank you! :-) Means a lot to get positive feedback from time to time.
I Love this!
@RazihelCraft
ServerlistMOTD 6.1 is compatible with 1.6+ so 1.8.9/1.8.8 are supportet. You just have to use the right ProtocolLib version :-) so it is save to update. If you encounter any issues you can open up a ticket.
Edit: I guess you can keep the ProtocolLib version you are using. So just update and be happy ;-)
@Strumswell
Does version 6.1 work with 1.8.9/1.8.8 servers? I was wondering if it were safe enough to update without any problems. Thank you!
