👥 Alt Protection

#Alt Protection

Alt Protection counts the accounts connecting from the same address and kicks the ones over max-accounts-per-address. Only the accounts online at that moment are counted, unless count-offline-accounts is turned on, which counts every account ever seen on that address instead.

This feature is part of the proxy plugin, so it needs PhoenixLobby installed on your BungeeCord or Velocity.

Players with phoenixlobby.alts.bypass are never limited, administrators with phoenixlobby.alts.notify are told when a player is kicked or joins next to another account, and phoenixlobby.alts is needed to use the command.

Addresses in whitelisted-addresses are never limited, which is what a shared connection such as a school or an internet cafe needs. Players in exempt-players are skipped as well, by name or by uuid.

#Commands

#History

Every address a player connects from is remembered, so the commands still answer for players that are offline. An address is forgotten once it has not been seen for retention-days. Turning the history off leaves only the players who are online right now.

#Geolocation

/alts geo shows the country, region, city and internet provider of an address. The lookup is done with a free service by default. You can point api-url to any service that answers with the same fields, and %ip% is replaced with the address. The result is kept for cache-minutes so the same address is not looked up again.
