Welcome Plugin sends a greeting when players join the server. The main entrypoint is com.playergames.welcomeplugin.WelcomePlugin, which formats Welcome to the server <player> and delivers it to the joining player.

  • The mod keeps lifecycle hooks (setup, start, shutdown) and tries to auto-register a join listener via common server event bridges; if none are present, the onPlayerJoin method can be invoked directly by the loader when a player connects.
  • Chat delivery is reflection-based and works with player objects exposing sendMessage/sendChatMessage-style methods that accept a string. If no compatible method exists, the message is logged to the console instead.
  • Player names are resolved from common getters or fields (name/username/displayName) with a safe fallback, so most runtime player representations will render a personalized welcome line.

Known considerations:

  • Automatic registration depends on a compatible runtime event API; if the environment uses a different hook name, ensure it calls onPlayerJoin so joins still receive the welcome message.
