⚡ VelocityLimboHandler

🌀 A smart limbo & queue handler for Velocity
Keeps your players connected, calm, and coming back even when backend servers crash.

✨ Why VelocityLimboHandler?

• 🚦 Per-Server Smart Queue – players only wait for the server they were on, not behind others stuck elsewhere
• 📢 Queue Updates – automatic position notifications keep players informed
• 🔒 Protected Limbo – blocks unwanted commands to prevent bypasses
• 🛠️ Maintenance Support – respects whitelist & bypass permissions
• 🤝 Authentication Ready – seamless integration with authentication plugins such as LibreLogin or nLogin

👉 Full setup & advanced features in the Wiki.

Made to work with LOOHP's Limbo server, but any other server is also fine.

🧩 Compatibility

• 🖥️ Proxy: Velocity (all recent versions)
• 🎮 MC Versions: All versions
• 📜 License: GPL-3.0

🚀 Quick Install

1. Grab the latest .jar from Releases.
2. Drop it into your Velocity plugins folder.
3. Restart the proxy (config files will generate).
4. Adjust config.yml + messages.yml to your liking.
5. Restart once more — done! 🎉

⚙️ Config Highlights

# config.yml
limbo-name: "limbo"                  # The name of your limbo server
direct-connect-server: "lobby"       # Where to send direct connections
task-interval: 3000                  # Queue processing interval (milliseconds)
reconnect-batch-size: 8              # Maximum backend queues checked per processing run
queue-notify-interval: 30            # How often to tell players their position
queue-notify-batch-size: 64          # Maximum due notifications sent per dispatcher tick
disabled-commands: ["server","hub"]  # Commands blocked in limbo

The batch limits smooth work across scheduler ticks. Increase them for faster catch-up on very large networks, or lower them to cap short CPU bursts on constrained proxies.

👉 Messages can be tweaked in messages.yml so your players see exactly what you want.

🖧 Proxy Setup Example

[servers]
default = "lobby"
