Description
PvPManager is made to be the all in one PvP plugin. Meaning that instead of using multiple plugins that customize the PvP experience in your server you would just use one.
One of its main features is to stop combat log and it was designed to be as efficient as possible which is ideal for large servers. All the features can be enabled/disabled according to your liking and the entire plugin can be disabled in specific worlds.
It's also not bloated, no need for a ton of addons/expansions each with their own config or overcomplicated menus.
Everything is ready out of the box in a single jar, can be customized in one config with very detailed descriptions and fully supports being reloaded.
Now with PlaceholderAPI support! See list here
If you have an issue or need support please create a ticket for easier tracking.

Features
Some plugins such as TAB, NametagEdit or other plugins that use packets to change nametags might interfere with PvPManager. At worst, this would just stop the player nametag prefix and glow color to display while in combat, every other feature like tagging would still work correctly.
Excluding those above, PvPManager is 100% compatible with any plugin that uses the proper API methods to change nametag prefixes and colors.

There are some special permissions like being immune from getting tagged and not getting your fly, gamemode, etc disabled.
You can see all permissions and commands here: plugin.yml
Or in the future wiki although it is unfinished: Permissions

Configuration File
- What are the differences between this and the free version?
- There are several differences including internal ones, i would say the most important are spawning NPCs, automatic respawn, better PvP protections and better plugin compatibility, which as usual can be toggled.
- There are also several new commands, config options and general tweaks.
- Additionally, despite having more features there is a bigger effort in getting better performance which is also enhanced by the code obfuscation/optimization.
- I want to hook into PvPManager, do you have an API?
- Yes, if you are an external developer you can grab the latest jar from here and use it as an API, make sure to only use the classes PvPManager and PvPlayer as they are the only ones deobfuscated in the premium jar. Otherwise if you purchased the plugin just use the premium jar as you would with any plugin.
- Below is a short guide but for more details check the Wiki for developers
- To get an instance of PvPlayer there is a static get method taking a Player as parameter.
Code (Java):
Player player;
PvPlayer p = PvPlayer.get(player); - By getting the PvPlayer from a Player you will have access to several methods which should give all the information necessary. The PvPlayer class is similar to the one on the free version
Code (Java):
PvPlayer p;
if(p.isInCombat())
p.getPlayer().sendMessage("You are still in combat");
- Does PvPManager support PlaceholderAPI?
- Yes, it does! You can find all the placeholders here
- Where do I report bugs/suggest new features?
If you want a free alternative or don't make a profit of your server, there is also PvPManager Lite which has less features but is the base of this version:
- PvPManager Lite
Other free plugins:
- AncientGates Regular and bungee portals
- PlayerWeight Player slows down according to his inventory fullness
