What does M Essentials add?

M-Essentials Mod – Beta Release

Overview:
M-Essentials is a versatile Minecraft mod designed to improve your gameplay with essential quality-of-life features and powerful commands. By separating server and client-side commands, it works seamlessly for both single-player and multiplayer servers, giving you control, convenience, and customization like never before.

MOTD and Rules:

M-Essentials allows server owners to fully customise the Message of the Day (MOTD) and server rules, giving players important information right when they join.

  • MOTD (/motd): Displays a custom welcome message that appears automatically when players join the server. The text can be edited in the configuration file to include server announcements, tips, or greetings.

  • Rules (/rules): Shows the server rules to ensure everyone knows the guidelines. Like the MOTD, this is fully configurable and can be updated without changing the mod itself.

This feature makes it easy to keep players informed, enforce server etiquette, and provide a friendly, organized introduction to your server.

Included Commands:
M-Essentials comes with a wide range of commands for moderation, convenience, and fun:

  • /afk – Let others know you're AFK.
