CombatGuard

A lightweight combat tag plugin that stops players from escaping fights with /home, /spawn, /tp, and other teleport commands.

Features

• PvP combat tagging — dealing or taking damage from another player (melee or projectiles) tags both players "in combat" for a configurable duration.
• Command blocking — blocks any commands you choose in the config file (defaults: /home, /spawn, /tpa, /tpaccept, /tp, /warp, /back) while tagged, with a message showing time remaining.
• Action bar countdown — players see a live combat timer on screen.
• Relog-proof — the combat timer keeps counting down even if a player disconnects, so quitting mid-fight doesn't reset the cooldown. Rejoining while still tagged resumes the countdown automatically.
• Optional combat-log punishment — enable punish-combat-log to kill (and drop the inventory of) any player who disconnects while tagged, instead of letting them dodge the fight entirely.
• Death clears the tag — dying naturally ends combat status, no lingering block on respawn.
• Staff bypass — combatguard.bypass permission exempts staff from command blocking.
• Simple admin tools — /combatguard check <player>, /combatguard clear <player>, /combatguard reload.

Configuration

Fully configurable via config.yml — combat duration, blocked command list, all messages, and whether combat-logging should be punished.
