⚡ TKillFX

Lightweight, Cosmetic Kill Effects for Modern Minecraft Servers

Pure flex. Zero lag. No gameplay advantage.

Give your PvP players and VIP ranks instant social proof with cosmetic kill effects, particle explosions, custom sounds, and death broadcasts.

🌟 Why TKillFX?

Most kill effect plugins are bloated with outdated code, heavy dependencies, or risk damaging the world. TKillFX is engineered from scratch for modern Minecraft (1.21+):

🛡️ 100% Cosmetic & World-Safe:
- Uses strikeLightningEffect — visual-only lightning that never deals damage, starts fires, or destroys blocks.
- Particle explosions only — no TNT entities, no griefing, no knockback.
- Zero persistent entities and zero chunk loading.
📦 Ultralight (~6 KB Jar): Contains no bloated libraries, no shaded dependencies, and no NMS hacks.
💎 Built for Ranks & Monetization: Easily grant free effects to all players and reserve premium effects for VIP ranks using LuckPerms.
⚡ Anti-Lag Engine: Features a global effects-per-second rate limiter, per-player cooldowns, and hard-capped particle budgets to protect server TPS.
