LanPinger is a lightweight Minecraft server plugin that provides LAN server discovery functionality. It broadcasts the server information over the local network using the Minecraft LAN discovery protocol, allowing nearby Minecraft clients to detect the server automatically in the multiplayer server list.

The plugin periodically sends UDP discovery packets containing the server MOTD and port information, similar to the built-in "Open to LAN" feature. It is designed for Paper servers and local network environments where automatic server discovery is needed.

Features:

• Automatic LAN server broadcasting
• Minecraft-compatible LAN discovery packets
• Lightweight asynchronous operation
• No additional client-side mods required

This plugin does not create external tunnels or expose the server to the Internet. It only broadcasts availability within the local network.
