### MiniMOTD is a basic server list MOTD plugin/mod for Minecraft servers and proxies

- MiniMOTD supports RGB colors and gradients through [MiniMessage](https://github.com/KyoriPowered/adventure-text-minimessage), which is also where MiniMOTD gets it's name.

- For more detailed info on formatting text, refer to the [MiniMessage docs](https://docs.adventure.kyori.net/minimessage.html).

- RGB colors are automatically downsampled for outdated clients.

- RGB colors are only able to be sent by proxies and 1.16+ servers, and can only be seen by 1.16+ clients.

#### Server Platforms

- [Paper](https://papermc.io/) / Spigot

  - MiniMOTD is compatible with Spigot, however many features will not work. It is recommended to use Paper for full compatibility.

- [Sponge API 8](https://www.spongepowered.org/)

- [Sponge API 7](https://www.spongepowered.org/)

- [Fabric](https://fabricmc.net/) (requires [Fabric API](https://modrinth.com/mod/fabric-api))

- [NeoForge](https://neoforged.net/)

#### Proxy Platforms

- [Velocity](https://velocitypowered.com/)

- [Waterfall](https://papermc.io/downloads#Waterfall) / Bungeecord

#### Downloads

Downloads can be obtained from any of:

 - [Modrinth](https://modrinth.com/plugin/minimotd)

 - [Hangar](https://hangar.papermc.io/jmp/MiniMOTD)

 - [GitHub releases](https://github.com/jpenilla/MiniMOTD/releases)

There is a separate jar for each platform. Paper and Spigot share the same jar, as do Waterfall and Bungeecord.

The `bukkit-bungeecord` jar is merged from the Paper/Spigot and Waterfall/Bungeecord jars for distribution on Spigot's site.
