Download/Build the .jar file and place it in the /mods/ folder of your Minecraft Fabric server. If the server is already running, restart it.
Note: This is a Server-side mod only.
This mod allows players to go AFK on a server without leaving their computers on. Simply use the /offline command to spawn an exact copy of your player, called an offline player. Depending on the configuration, you'll be kicked after the offline player has spawned.
If the offline player is killed, it won't drop loot but will be kicked from the server. When you rejoin, the inventory and XP levels from the offline player are copied to you, and you'll be killed. This gives you time to retrieve your items.
If the offline player survives until you rejoin, its inventory and gained experience will be transferred to you.
Type /offline to spawn an offline player.
You can add actions to your offline player. Available actions include:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| attack | Player left click |
| break | Player left click, but wait for block to fully break. |
| place / use | Player right click |
| crouch | Player crouching |
| jump | Player jumping |
| eat | Player eating (only if hungry & having food in one hand) |
| drop_item | Drops an item from the active slot |
| drop_stack | Drops all items from the active slot |
| move_forward | Moves the player forward |
| move_backward | Moves the player backwards |
| disconnect | Automatically disconnects the offline player after a set interval |
To use an action, type /offline [action], e.g., /offline attack.
Tip: use
/offline actionsto see a list of available actions
You can execute actions with set intervals or offsets:
- Interval:
/offline break:20(20 tick or 1 second interval between breaking blocks) - Offset:
/offline attack:20:10(10 tick offset added to the action)
Besides using ticks (the default), it is also possible to set the interval and offset to milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, and even days.
Example: /offline use:100ms, /offline attack:1s, /offline attack:1.5m, /offline eat:0.25h, /offline disconnect:1d
You can chain actions, for example:
/offline attack move_forward/offline attack:100 jump eat:20:10/offline jump:20 attack eat move_backward
Actions are executed in the order specified.
