SlashString

Recent Minecraft Java updates have closed several string and tripwire duplication tricks that farms and players used for years. If your world just lost that supply, SlashString is a fair replacement: one command, and you set how much string they get and how often, with no exploits involved.

---

What does it do?

• Players type /string and receive a stack of string (the item used for bows, wool, tripwires, and lots of crafts).
• You choose how many they get and how long they must wait before using the command again.
• If their inventory is full, you can choose whether extra string falls on the ground or is thrown away.

There is no permission plugin setup: everyone who can use commands on your server can use /string, unless you block the command yourself in your host’s files.

Installation

1. Download the plugin .jar from this project’s files page.
2. Put the jar in your server’s plugins folder.
3. Restart the server (or load the plugin the way you usually do).

You need a Paper (or Paper-style) Minecraft server. The plugin is built for recent 1.21 releases; if your server version does not match, ask your host or check the project’s version tags before installing.

Commands

Command	Who can use it?
/string	Players in the world. They get string according to your settings.
/string reload	The server console always works. Players must be a server operator (opped) to reload.

Reloading applies changes from your config and message files without restarting the whole server.

---

Settings (config.yml)

After the first start, open:

plugins/SlashString/config.yml

Setting	What it means
amount	How many string items one use of /string gives (at least 1).
cooldown-seconds	How many seconds a player must wait before /string works again. Use 0 for no cooldown.
drop-if-full	true: if the inventory is full, extra string drops at their feet. false: extra string does not drop (it is removed).

Edit the file, then run /string reload from the console (or in-game if you are opped).

---

Messages (messages.yml)

Text the plugin sends (cooldown warnings, “you received string”, reload success, and so on) lives in:

plugins/SlashString/messages.yml

You can change the wording and colors. Colors use the usual & codes (for example &a green, &c red, &e yellow, &7 gray). Placeholders like {amount} are filled in automatically. Keep those spelled exactly as in the default file.

After editing, use /string reload so players see the new text right away.
