ProxyFlow - Folia
Advanced Security for Folia
ProxyFlow is an all-in-one solution for server protection and management, built specifically for the high-performance Folia server software. Whether you need to perform maintenance or protect your community from malicious actors, ProxyFlow provides the essential tools, fully optimized for Folia's modern, multi-threaded environment.
Requirements
Server Software: This plugin requires Folia. It will NOT work on standard Spigot or Paper servers.
API Key: A free API key from proxycheck.io is required for the VPN/Proxy check feature to work.
Core Features
Easy Maintenance Mode
Toggle the server's maintenance status with a single command (/maintenance).
Display a custom, animated MOTD in the server list when maintenance is active.
Automatically kick players who do not have bypass permission with a configurable message.
Grant access to staff and specific players with the proxyflow.maintenance.bypass permission.
Advanced Connection Security
VPN & Proxy Blocking: Integrates with the free proxycheck.io API to detect and block players using anonymous networks.
Country Blocking: Set up a blacklist to block specific countries or a whitelist to only allow certain countries.
Built-in Anti-Bot: A simple but effective connection rate-limiter mitigates basic bot attacks.
Multi-Account Prevention: Prevents multiple users from joining from the same IP address.
Automatic Temp-Ban: IPs that repeatedly trigger security flags are automatically and temporarily banned.
Optimized for Folia
Built from the ground up to integrate seamlessly with Folia's multi-threaded architecture.
Connection checks are performed asynchronously to ensure zero impact on your server's main threads and tick rate.
Fully configurable to let you decide what runs on your server.
