Sends every player to the best hub on your BungeeCord or Velocity proxy, and keeps them waiting in limbo instead of kicking them when no hub is free.

FlowGate Lite checks your hubs all the time and sends each new player to the least busy healthy one. When every hub is down or full, players wait on a limbo server and are moved to a hub by themselves as soon as one is free. It runs only on the proxy, and the same jar works on BungeeCord, Waterfall and Velocity.

Features

  • Health checks. Pings every hub in the background and skips a hub that stops answering until it is back.
  • Least busy hub. New players go to the healthy hub with the fewest players, with optional weights and a player cap.
  • Limbo. When no hub is free, players wait on a fallback server with a "Waiting" title and leave by themselves when a hub is ready.
  • Kick fallback. A player kicked from a backend goes to another hub or to limbo instead of being disconnected.
  • Hub and server commands. /hub, /lobby and your own commands such as /survival.
  • Backend requests. Checks Connect requests from game servers, for example from FlowGate Bridge, against your allow list.
  • MOTD. Server list text and hover lines with & codes and hex colours.
  • Status. /flowgate status shows every server's health and routing counters.

Supported platforms

  • Velocity: 3.4 and newer, including 4.x (tested on 3.4.0, 3.5.1, 4.3.1 and 4.3.2).
  • BungeeCord and Waterfall: current builds (tested on BungeeCord 2111 and Waterfall 615).
  • Java: 17 or newer. Velocity 4 needs Java 25.
  • On Velocity: restricted-server checks are BungeeCord-only, and backend Connect checks need bungee-plugin-message-channel = false in velocity.toml.

Installation

  1. Download FlowGate-Lite-1.0.8.jar from one of the links below.
  2. Put it in the proxy's plugins folder and restart the proxy.
  3. Put your hub and limbo server names in config.yml, then run /flowgate reload.

Full setup: Install guide.

Privacy

Once a day FlowGate Lite tells kori.my that one more server runs it: an anonymous ID, the plugin version, the platform and that it is a proxy. No IP addresses, server names or player data. Turn it off with metrics.enabled: false in config.yml. Details: Privacy Policy.
