World configuration

anticheat:

anti-xray:

enabled: false#

Controls the on/off state for the Anti-Xray system

engine-mode: 1#

Sets the Anti-Xray engine mode. 1 replaces specified blocks (hidden-blocks) with other “fake” blocks, stone (deepslate at y < 0), netherrack, or end_stone based on the dimension. In contrast, 2 will replace both hidden-blocks and replacement-blocks with randomly generated hidden-blocks. Similarly to engine mode 2, mode 3 will replace each chunk layer with a random block from the hidden-blocks list.

max-block-height: 64#

Sets the maximum height (y coordinate, starting from the bottom of the world) to which anti-xray will operate. Only integer multiples of 16 are accepted. All other values will be rounded down. The Minecraft Wiki page about Ore may be helpful in determining the best value for you

update-radius: 2#

Radius for block updates which will be sent containing real block data when the client interacts with a block. Only values 0, 1, and 2 are accepted. Values smaller than 0 will be rounded up to 0, while values larger than 2 will be rounded down to 2. 0 is only designed for testing purposes. Do not use it in production

lava-obscures: false#

Whether to obfuscate blocks touching lava. Does not work well with non-stone-like ore textures. This is because lava, while being mostly opaque, does not cover blocks fully at the surface

use-permission: false#

Whether to allow players with the paper.antixray.bypass permission to bypass anti-xray. Checking this permission is disabled by default as legacy permission plugins may struggle with the number of checks made. This should only be used with modern permission plugins

hidden-blocks: #

- copper_ore - deepslate_copper_ore - raw_copper_block - gold_ore - deepslate_gold_ore - iron_ore - deepslate_iron_ore - raw_iron_block - coal_ore - deepslate_coal_ore - lapis_ore - deepslate_lapis_ore - mossy_cobblestone - obsidian - chest - diamond_ore - deepslate_diamond_ore - redstone_ore - deepslate_redstone_ore - clay - emerald_ore - deepslate_emerald_ore - ender_chest

With engine-mode: 1, these blocks will be replaced by stone (deepslate at y < 0), netherrack, or end_stone, based on the dimension. All types of air are ignored on this list. With engine-mode: 2, these blocks will be randomly placed in the world, replacing both hidden-blocks and replacement-blocks. Tile entities, such as chests or spawners, are not allowed on this list. Individual blocks may be added multiple times, increasing their chance of being placed. engine-mode: 3 is very similar to 2, but these blocks will be randomly placed where each vertical chunk layer will take the same block from the list.

replacement-blocks: #

- stone - oak_planks - deepslate

With engine-mode: 1, replacement blocks are not used. Changing this list will have no effect. With engine-mode: 2, both replacement-blocks and hidden-blocks are randomly replaced by hidden-blocks. While tile entities are ignored in the hidden-blocks list, they may be added to the replacement-blocks list. All types of air blocks are ignored here. With engine-mode: 3, the behavior is the same as engine-mode: 2, but the replacement-blocks list is used to determine which blocks are used for each vertical chunk layer.

chunks:

alt-item-despawn-rate:

enabled: false#

Determines if items will have different despawn rates

items:

cobblestone: 300#

Sets a custom despawn rate for cobblestone of 300 ticks

despawn-range-shape: ELLIPSOID#

The shape of the despawn range. Can be one of the following values:

ELLIPSOID: The despawn range is an ellipsoid, with the horizontal and vertical despawn ranges being separate. This is the default Minecraft behavior.
CYLINDER: The vertical despawn range is checked separately from the horizontal despawn range, but the horizontal despawn range is a circle.

despawn-ranges:

<mob_category>:

hard: default#

The horizontal and vertical number of blocks away from a player in which each monster type (set individually) will be forcibly despawned.

The horizontal number of blocks away from a player in which each entity type (set individually) will be randomly selected to be despawned.

vertical: default#

The vertical number of blocks away from a player in which each entity type (set individually) will be randomly selected to be despawned.

despawn-time:

<entity-type>: disabled#

A server-introduced despawn time after which the entity is forcefully despawned. If disabled or not specified, the entity will simply despawn according to Vanilla rules.

disable-mob-spawner-spawn-egg-transformation: false#

Whether to block players from changing the type of mob spawners with a spawn egg

duplicate-uuid:

filter-bad-tile-entity-nbt-from-falling-blocks: true#

Instructs the server to remove certain NBT data from falling blocks. Note: Some adventure maps may require this to be turned off to function correctly, but we do not recommend turning it off on a public server

filtered-entity-tag-nbt-paths: #

- Pos - Motion - SleepingX - SleepingY - SleepingZ

A list of NBT tags that will be removed from the EntityTag tag on items which spawn entities. The format of these strings follows the same format used to select NBT tags in Vanilla commands. If the spawning was directly caused by a player and the player has the minecraft.nbt.place permission, the filter list will be ignored. The defaults are set to prevent entities from spawning or moving to a place other than the location they were placed. For example, if Pos wasn’t included, a spawn egg could place an entity at any location. Note: Some adventure maps may require this to be an empty list to function correctly, but we do not recommend turning it off on a public server

iron-golems-can-spawn-in-air: false#

Sets whether iron golems can spawn in the air. Iron farms may break depending on this setting

monster-spawn-max-light-level: default#

When set to “default”, the Vanilla default will be used (=0). Set to 15 or greater to revert to pre-1.18 behavior

treasure-maps:

enabled: true#

If villagers should trade treasure maps and treasure maps from chests should lead to a feature

find-already-discovered:

loot-tables: default#

Overrides the loot table-configured check for undiscovered structures. default allows loot tables to individually determine if the map should allow discovered locations in its search. All Vanilla loot tables default to skipping discovered locations so changing this to false would override that behavior and force them to search discovered locations

prevent-tnt-from-moving-in-water: false#

Instructs the server to keep Primed TNT entities from moving in flowing water

split-overstacked-loot: true#

When set to false, loot tables will not attempt to split items with a stack size higher than the maximum into items of smaller stack sizes. This will prevent overstacked items from being lost or causing a chunk to become uninhabitable (due to players getting constantly kicked because of oversized packets) when a shulker box is broken in survival

tnt-entity-height-nerf: disabled#

The height at which Primed TNT entities will be removed from the server. A value of disabled will disable this feature

hopper:

cooldown-when-full: true#

Instructs the server to apply a short cooldown when the hopper is full, instead of constantly trying to pull new items

Determines if hoppers will ignore containers inside occluding blocks, like a hopper minecart inside a sand block. Enabling this will improve performance for hoppers checking where to insert items

lootables:

auto-replenish: false#

Instructs the server to automatically replenish lootable containers. This feature is useful for long-term worlds in which players are not expected to constantly explore to generate new chunks. Breaking such lootable containers disables replenishing after their initial looting.

max-refills: -1#

Sets the maximum number of times a lootable may be refilled. Note: The default value will allow a lootable to refill an infinite number of times

refresh-max: 2d#

refresh-min: 12h#

The minimum amount of time that must pass before a lootable will be eligible to be refilled. Formatted as a duration with a single unit e.g. 10h or 25m. Supports d, h, m, and s.

reset-seed-on-fill: true#

Resets the loot seed each time the lootable is refilled, effectively randomizing the new loot items on each refill

restrict-player-reloot: true#

Prevents the same players from coming back and re-looting the same containers over and over

restrict-player-reloot-time: disabled#

Per-player cooldown between reloots. Formatted as a duration with a single unit e.g. 10h or 25m. Supports d, h, m, and s.

retain-unlooted-shulker-box-loot-table-on-non-player-break: true#

Configures if breaking a shulker box via non-player means, e.g. a piston, should retain the shulker box’s loot table if the shulker box has not been looted yet. Setting this option to false prevents players from moving shulker boxes with potentially refilling loot tables to new locations by breaking them via the likes of pistons.

maps:

Instructs the server to ignore shooter velocity when calculating the velocity of a fired arrow

disable-sprint-interruption-on-attack: false#

Determines if the server will interrupt a sprinting player if they are attacked. When set to true, you may be subject to a Vanilla bug where sprinting is stopped and started when attacking players.

legacy-ender-pearl-behavior: false#

Determines if the server uses legacy (pre-1.21.2) ender pearl behavior. If enabled, ender pearls will no longer load chunks and will be saved with the launching player instead of being saved as independent entities in the world.

max-leash-distance: default#

Configure the maximum distance of a leash. If the distance to the leashed entity is greater, the leash will break.

redstone-implementation: VANILLA#

Specifies the redstone implementation that the server uses. Alternative implementations can greatly reduce the lag caused by redstone dust by optimizing power calculations and reducing the number of block and shape updates emitted. The following implementations are available:

VANILLA: The Vanilla redstone implementation.
EIGENCRAFT: The Eigencraft redstone implementation by theosib.
ALTERNATE_CURRENT: The Alternate Current redstone implementation by Space Walker.

Note: Both the Eigencraft and Alternate Current implementations change the behavior of redstone dust. You can read about how behavior is changed in each implementation’s respective documentation:

Eigencraft: No official documentation available. However, theosib’s comments on the Mojira bug tracker give an overview of the Eigencraft implementation.
Alternate Current

alternate-current-update-order: HORIZONTAL_FIRST_OUTWARD#

Controls the order in which Alternate Current updates wires and neighboring blocks. Only has an effect when using the “ALTERNATE_CURRENT” redstone implementation. This can be one of the following values:

HORIZONTAL_FIRST_OUTWARD

Whether commands executed by sign click should show failure messages to players

update-pathfinding-on-block-update: true#

Controls whether the pathfinding of mobs is updated when a block is updated in the world. Disabling this option can improve the server performance significantly, while there is almost no noticeable effect on the game mechanics. This is recommended when there are lots of entities loaded, and you have automated farms or redstone clocks

scoreboards:

allow-non-player-entities-on-scoreboards: true#

Instructs the server to always treat non-player entities as if they are never on a team. Disabling this may slightly decrease the amount of time the server spends calculating entity collisions

use-vanilla-world-scoreboard-name-coloring: false#

Instructs the server to use the Vanilla scoreboard for player nickname coloring. Useful when playing on adventure maps made for the Vanilla server and client

spawn:

Sets the behavior tick rate of an entity. -1 uses Vanilla. See timings for the names. Might change between updates!

container-update: 1#

The rate, in ticks, at which the server updates containers and inventories. Higher values than 1 can cause item desync/ghosting or make block breaking progress appear to reset randomly. It can also create visual artifacts mimicking server lag to clients, despite this not being the case.

grass-spread: 1#

Sets the delay, in ticks, at which the server attempts to spread grass. Higher values will result in a slower spread

mob-spawner: 1#

How often mob spawners should tick to calculate available spawn areas and spawn new entities into the world. A value of -1 will disable all spawners

sensor:

villager:
