Description from the author on Hangar

ajQueue

ajQueue is a queue plugin that will prevent players from spam-joining a server, or will queue players when the server is full/restarting

  • Bungeecord and Velocity support
  • Separate queues for each server
  • Priority queue feature
  • Per-server priority queue
  • Will say the server is restarting, or offline if offline for more than 2 mins (configurable)
  • All messages are configurable in messages.yml
  • Can replace the /server command
  • Actionbar with queue position
  • Can be used in guis/npcs (install on spigot too)
  • PlaceholderAPI placeholders
  • Ability to pause queues (to temporarily not sent players)
  • Permission to allow players to stay in the queue for a minute after they leave (they will be in the same place in the queue if they rejoin)
  • Permission to only allow joining the queue from certain servers
  • Smart ETAs

Preview video

This plugin requires a bungee/velocity server!

If you try to install it only on spigot, it will do nothing.

  • Put jar in you proxy's plugins folder.
  • Restart bungeecord
  • Use /queue <servername> or any of its aliases
  • If you want to replace the /server command, read this
  • Give priority queue players the ajqueue.priority permission node.
  • (optional) Install the plugin on bakcend servers to make queue commands work in server selectors and npcs, use PlaceholderAPI Placeholders and/or to let ajQueue detect if the server is whitelisted

If you did not replace the /server command, I recommend you deny players access to the /server command to prevent them from bypassing the queue

/move <server> - Join the queue for <server>

/queue <server> - Join the queue for <server>

/server <server> - Join the queue for <server> (requires setup)

/leavequeue - Leave any queue you are in.

/ajqueue reload - Reloads the configs

/ajqueue list - Lists players in queues and shows total player count in queues

/ajqueue pause <server> - Pause/unpause the queue for a server

/ajqueue send <player> <server> - Puts a player in a queue

... and more because im too lazy to update this list. Check the wiki and in-game help for a more complete list

If you would like to support me, get some extra features (like infinite priority queue levels), and get updates slightly faster, please consider buying the premium version of this plugin.

The differences between this version and the premium version are listed on the premium version's page.

DO NOT REQUEST SUPPORT THROUGH REVIEWS!

It is much easier (and usually faster) to contact me for support in one of the above areas. Discord is the fastest way to get support because I get instant mobile notifications.

How to install ajQueue

  1. Make sure your server runs Paper and Spigot on Minecraft 1.8 – 1.21.

  2. Download the .jar file from Hangar and put it in the plugins folder of your server.

  3. Restart the server. Avoid /reload, many plugins do not handle it well.

  4. Type /plugins in the console: ajQueue should be listed in green. Its config files are created in the plugins folder on the first start.
