Notice: This plugin will NOT help you when you first install it when mojang servers are offline, it must be installed when they are online!
- Tested Minecraft Versions:
- 1.8
- 1.9
Overview
Hate mojang servers being offline? Same with me. So to resolve this issue, I have created AlwaysOnline. A plugin that keeps your spigot or bungeecord server online while mojang is offline.
How it works
The plugin is set to a repeating task with a configurable delay, to see if the session servers are offline. If they are, the plugin will go into mojang offline mode. When in this mode, the server will allow players to login if their ip matches from their last authenticated login. If they don't match, it denies them from logging in. The plugin will also deny new players from joining if the mojang authentication servers are down.
Features
Commands
- Stores last authenticated data in a FlatFile type database or MySQL
- UUIDs will not be cracked, but instead premium. This means that player UUIDs will always be consistent.
- Doesn't rely on any third party services
- Compatible with most bungee, spigot, and bukkit plugins
- Lightweight and efficient
- No libraries required
- Works with all Bungeecord versions newer than #919
- Works with spigot versions 1.8.x and 1.9
- It's free!
Permission node for all of these commands is alwaysonline.usage
- /alwaysonline toggle - Manually toggle between mojang offline mode and back.
- /alwaysonline enable - Makes the plugin check to see if the mojang servers are offline.
- /alwaysonline disable - Makes the plugin stop checking to see if the mojang servers are offline.
- /alwaysonline reload - Reloads the configuration file.
Permissions
alwaysonline.notify - Players with this permission node will be alerted when the mojang servers go online or offline.

#Below are three session server check methods which can be used to determine if mojang is online or not.
#For example, if http-head-session-server is true AND mojang-server-status is also true, then the plugin will
#only go into mojang offline mode if both services claim the session servers are offline.
