🌍 CommandWorld

Per-world command control and chat isolation for Paper, Purpur, Spigot, and Bukkit servers. Granular whitelist/blacklist rules per world, world group, and LuckPerms group — with a fully-featured staff communication suite. Built for networks, SMPs, minigame servers, and any multi-world setup.

🔍 Why CommandWorld?

Most Minecraft servers with multiple worlds suffer from the same problem — players can run any command from anywhere, chat bleeds across worlds, and staff have no clean way to communicate privately. CommandWorld solves all of it in one lean, zero-database plugin.

🔒 Granular command control — whitelist or blacklist any command per scope: global, world, world group, or LuckPerms group
🌐 World-isolated chat — players only see messages from their own world or world group
📢 Global chat override — prefix a message with ! to broadcast across all worlds instantly
👮 Staff chat — a dedicated private channel for your staff team, toggleable per session
🕵️ Chat spy — staff can silently monitor chat across every world at once
⚙️ Live config editing via commands — add/remove/list command rules without ever touching a file
🏅 LuckPerms integration — apply command rules directly to LP permission groups with highest priority
🔄 Hot reload — all changes apply live with /cw reload

🛡️ Command Control System

Block or allow any command anywhere on your server, down to the individual player rank.

🎯 Scope Priority (Highest → Lowest)

LuckPerms Group — per-rank rules (e.g. admin, mod, vip, default)
World Group — shared rules across linked worlds (e.g. survival, lobby, minigame)
Individual World — override rules for a specific world
Global Default — fallback rules applied everywhere else

✅ Whitelist / Blacklist Modes

Whitelist — only listed commands are allowed and visible
Blacklist — all commands are allowed except listed ones
Each scope has its own independent mode, configurable at any time

🔕 Tab-Complete Suppression

Command rules apply to both execution and tab-complete separately
Players in restricted worlds won't even see blocked commands when pressing Tab

🚫 Default-Deny by Default

Out of the box, the default LuckPerms group is set to whitelist with an empty list — players can use zero commands until you open them up
Admins are set to blacklist with an empty list — full access to everything by default

💬 Chat System

Per-world chat isolation, cooldowns, filtered words, join/leave messages, and full MiniMessage formatting.

🌏 World-Isolated Chat

Players only receive messages from their own world or world group
Configurable join/leave messages scoped to each world group
Optional chat clear on world switch

📢 Global Chat

Any player can prefix a message with ! to send it across all worlds
Requires the commandworld.globalchat permission (toggled on/off per server)
Fully configurable format with MiniMessage support

⏱️ Chat Cooldowns

Per-world-group cooldown in seconds (e.g. Survival: 2s, Lobby: 1s, Minigame: off)
Custom cooldown message with %remaining% placeholder

🚫 Word Filter

Server-wide blocked words list (case-insensitive)
Custom blocked word message

🎨 Chat Formatting

Full MiniMessage colour and style support
Placeholders: %player%, %message%, %world%, %prefix%, %suffix%
Per-world-group format — each zone has its own chat style

👮 Staff Tools

💬 Staff Chat (/staffchat, /sc)

Toggle staff-only chat mode — all messages go to staff instead of public chat
Or send a one-off staff message without toggling
Optional sound on receipt
Requires commandworld.staff to receive, commandworld.staffchat to send

🕵️ Chat Spy (/chatspy)

Monitor all world chats simultaneously in real time
Configurable whether spy includes staff chat, global chat, or the spy's own context
