/? /? | /? <page_or_command> — neoessentials.? by convention Show available commands (alias)Alias of /help: the same requires (neoessentials.help, the console passes), the same executeHelp.

The description is looked up first by the full syntax without placeholders (for example, cmd.rg.flag.clear.description), then by the root (cmd.bb.description); so individual /rg branches show different Russian descriptions.

One word argument: a plain number ≥ 1 is a page number (10 commands each), otherwise a search by name/description in the CommandRegistry catalog. A second page exists only for /help <command> <page>; /? has none. The list is filtered by the actual node from CommandPermissionRegistry; the console and holders of neoessentials.admin / neoessentials.* see everything. The description is looked up first by the full syntax without placeholders (for example, cmd.rg.flag.clear.description), then by the root (cmd.bb.description); so individual /rg branches show different Russian descriptions.

`/invsee`	`/invsee <target>`	—	`neoessentials.invsee` by convention	View another player's inventoryThe target EntityArgument.player() is required. The console passes requires, but execute uses getPlayerOrException (a player is needed). Audit — neoessentials/inventory_audit.log. With `neoessentials.invsee` a read-only window opens (mayPickup/mayPlace=false); with `neoessentials.invsee.edit` — the editable live inventory and a "one editor per target" lock. The `.edit` node also grants access to the command itself and takes precedence over viewing. You cannot view your own inventory (invsee.self). Enabled by commands.invsee.
`/kill`	`/kill <target>`	—	`neoessentials.kill` by convention	Kill a playerThe target is required — you cannot kill yourself without a name (unlike vanilla /kill).

`/mob`	`/mob <mob> [amount]`	—	`neoessentials.spawnmob`	Spawn entities (alias)Alias of /spawnmob without the [target] branch — you cannot spawn at another player with this command. Permission neoessentials.spawnmob.
`/more`	`/more [amount]`	—	`neoessentials.more` by convention	Fill held stack to maxPlayer only, main hand. Without amount — maxStackSize; otherwise Integer 1–3456 (can exceed the max stack size). Empty hand — no_item. Console: the tree is visible (p == null), execute — player_only.

`/pong`	`/pong`	—	`neoessentials.pong` by convention	Check your ping (alias)Only a /help catalog entry (registerCommand in NeoEssentials.java). There is no Commands.literal("pong") in the sources — the command will not appear in Brigadier completion, and /pong does nothing. See /ping.
`/potion`	`/potion clear \| /potion add <effect> [duration] [amplifier]`	—	`neoessentials.potion` by convention	Edit potion effects on held potion itemNot /effect: edits the POTION_CONTENTS of the item in hand (potion / splash / lingering / tipped_arrow). duration 1–1000000 s default 30; amplifier 0–255 default 0.

The tree belongs to the claims mod: Farmstead Claims ("farmstead_claims") or the original RegionGuard ("regionguard"); these 17 lines, as well as /bb <player>, appear in /help only if farmstead_claims or regionguard is loaded at startup. In /help each /rg branch gets its own translated description (for example define, list and flag clear), not a shared text for the /rg root. Without the mod, /rg and /bb are not in the catalog and NE does not register them. Permissions and behaviour belong to the claims mod, not to neoessentials.rg nodes.

`/sudo`	`/sudo <target> <command> \| /sudo * <command> \| /sudo ** <command>`	—	`neoessentials.sudo` by convention	Run a command as another playerThe * and ** literals are separate (word() does not consume ""). — everyone except the sender; ** — everyone including. command — greedyString; the c: prefix sends chat via ServerChatEvent (formatter/mute/anti-spam), otherwise performPrefixedCommand without the leading /. You cannot target yourself by name (sudo.self); exempt players are silently skipped in bulk and block a single target if the sender is a player (the console bypasses exempt).
`/suicide`	`/suicide \| /suicide confirm`	—	`neoessentials.suicide` by convention	Kill yourselfPlayer only. The first call opens a 10 s window; confirm kills with DamageTypes.GENERIC_KILL (not PvP). A 30 s cooldown after success. Creative/Spectator — invalid_gamemode. Not an alias of vanilla /kill.
`/sun`	`/sun`	—	`neoessentials.weather`	Set weather to clearShortcut for /weather sun without a duration, permission neoessentials.weather.
`/thunder`	`/thunder`	—	`neoessentials.weather`	Set weather to thunderShortcut for /weather thunder without a duration, permission neoessentials.weather.
`/time`	`/time \| /time set <value> \| /time add <value> \| /time <value>`	—	`neoessentials.time` by convention	Get or set world timeBare — the current ticks of the source's world. set/add and the shorthand value require neoessentials.time.set. Names: sunrise=23000, day/morning=1000, noon=6000, afternoon=9000, sunset=12000, night/dusk=13000, midnight=18000, or a Long. Writes setDayTime to ALL dimensions. Overrides vanilla /time.
`/tree`	`/tree <type>`	—	`neoessentials.tree` by convention	Grow a tree at look targetPlayer only, a 20-block ray, plants on the block above the hit. Types: oak, birch, spruce, jungle, acacia, darkoak, mangrove, cherry, azalea, bigoak, mega_spruce, mega_jungle. Permission neoessentials.tree.
`/unlimited`	`/unlimited \| /unlimited list [target] \| /unlimited clear [target] \| /unlimited <item> [target]`	—	`neoessentials.unlimited` by convention	Toggle unlimited item useBare and list print the set of ids. clear removes everything. <item> toggles an id (minecraft: prefix, or hand — the id from the sender's hand). Another player — unlimited.others. The set is in memory; onPlayerQuit erases it. Stack refilling is done by the item-use handler.
`/weather`	`/weather sun\|clear\|rain\|storm\|thunder [duration]`	—	`neoessentials.weather` by convention	Set world weatherduration Integer 1–1000000 seconds; 0 in code → 6000 ticks (5 min). clear=sun, rain=storm. Only dimensions with hasSkyLight (Nether/End are skipped). Overrides vanilla /weather.
`/whereami`	`/whereami [player]`	—	`neoessentials.getpos`	Get your current position (alias)Alias of /getpos, permission neoessentials.getpos.
`/who`	`/who`	—	`neoessentials.list`	List online players (alias)Alias of /list, permission neoessentials.list.
`/whois`	`/whois <player>`	—	`neoessentials.whois` by convention	Get player informationNo root .executes. Two branches: EntityArgument.player() (online) and word playername. The offline branch calls getOfflinePlayerSeenInfo, which always returns Optional.empty() — an offline name gives player_not_found. UUID/coordinates/IP only with neoessentials.whois.detailed. The whois node is false by default. Not to be confused with /info.
`/workbench`	`/workbench`	—	`neoessentials.crafting`	Open portable crafting tableAlias of /crafting. Permission neoessentials.crafting. Declared in the catalog with this node explicitly.
`/world`	`/world \| /world <dimension> [target]`	—	`neoessentials.world` by convention	Teleport to a world/dimensionBare — a list of dimension().location(). Teleports to the dimension's shared spawn; path or full id, case-insensitive. Another player — world.others. Console without a target — player_only.
`/xp`	`/xp \| /xp set <amount> \| /xp give <amount>`	—	`neoessentials.exp`	Manage player experience (alias)A trimmed alias of /exp: the same permissions neoessentials.exp / exp.set / exp.give, but no show and no [target] on set/give — you cannot give another player XP with this command. Vanilla /xp is overridden.

Examples#

Switch the mode for yourself and someone else with shortcuts#

Check that /gms and /gmc go into the same tree as the full /gamemode, and that someone else's mode is gated by a separate node.

/gms
/gmc Steve
/gamemode spectator
/gamemode 1 Steve

/gms without a target sets Survival for the sender (needs neoessentials.gamemode; the console gets player_only). /gmc Steve requires gamemode.others and an online EntityArgument player — offline gives "player not found". /gamemode spectator is a full literal, not a number. /gamemode 1 Steve does not parse: the 0–3 branches do not accept [target]; 1 is for yourself only. If you are already in that mode, the shortcuts reply already_in_mode.

Portable GUIs without a block#

Open a crafting table and an anvil in the field, and make sure the console cannot do it.

/workbench
/craft
/anvil
/grindstone
/stonecutter

workbench and craft are one /crafting handler (permission neoessentials.crafting, key commands.crafting). anvil / grindstone / stonecutter are separate commands and keys. The menus are virtual (stillValid is always true); XP on the anvil is charged as usual. From the console all five reply player_only (anvil also has a root requires ServerPlayer).

An announcement to the whole server and to your world only#

Tell /broadcast from /broadcastworld and see that placeholders are taken from the sender.

/broadcast &6Restart soon, {online} players online
/bc Maintenance window
/broadcastworld This world only

/broadcast and /bc send the line §6[Broadcast] §f… to everyone online and to the server's system chat — there is no separate "sent to N"; you see your own message as a recipient. {online} is resolved by PlaceholderAPI. /broadcastworld marks it §6[World] §e and filters by src.getLevel(): a player in the Nether will not see an announcement from the Overworld; the console usually broadcasts to the overworld.

Joke projectiles#

Check that /antioch, /kittycannon and /beezooka require a player and do not work from the console.

/antioch
/antioch holy
/kittycannon
/beezooka 3

Look at a block (20-block ray). /antioch places TNT with an 80-tick fuse; any tail like holy additionally broadcasts two Holy Hand Grenade lines. /kittycannon launches a kitten; a second later the entity vanishes with a power-0 explosion (blocks are intact). /beezooka 3 — three angry bees (limit 20). The console gets player_only for all three.

Farmstead Claims in help, not in NeoEssentials#

Understand why /rg is sometimes in /help and sometimes not, and who actually runs the command.

/help rg
/rg list

If Farmstead Claims (or the original RegionGuard) is loaded, /help rg shows 17 syntaxes from the catalog (define, claim, flag…). /rg list itself is executed by the claims mod: NeoEssentials only called registerCommand("rg …") at startup. Without a claims mod these lines are not in /help, and /rg list is either an unknown command or another mod's tree — NeoEssentials does not create it.

Edge cases#

OP and permission nodes — three different checks#

Most trees in PlayerState/ServerAdmin/Fun/Utility use .requires(p == null || PermissionAPI.hasPermission(...)). The console, command blocks and functions always pass. For a player, PermissionAPI with opsBypassPermissions: true (the default in config.json) returns true for any OP, even without the node. With permissions.requireExplicitGrant: true (shipped) the registry default does not grant access by itself — a non-OP needs an explicit grant.

Commands on PermissionValidator (seen, ping, depth, anvil, crafting, rules, all of /motd, suicide, list, near, whois, compass, getpos, gamemode shortcuts) require source.hasPermission(2) for a non-player — a command block without OP 2 is refused. A player still needs the node if they are not OP and the bypass is off.

The /gms shortcuts and the full /gamemode differ: the shortcuts use PermissionValidator, /gamemode uses PermissionAPI with p == null.

What to do: Grant nodes to non-OPs explicitly. To stop OPs getting /give and /nuke "for free", set opsBypassPermissions: false and give nodes to groups. Restrict command blocks with /sudo and /nuke via vanilla OP and access to the blocks.

Console vs player#

The GUIs (anvil, crafting, grindstone, stonecutting), /hat, /more, /break, /tree, /fireball, /spawner, /recipe, /remove, /bottom, /suicide and all fun commands require a ServerPlayer in execute. /depth and /anvil additionally set .requires(instanceof ServerPlayer) — the console does not even reach the target.

Another online name is accepted by fly/god/heal/give/kill/effect: /give Steve diamond 64 works from the console. /ping and /compass without a name cannot be used from the console (your own ping/compass).

/nuke without an argument from the console bombs everyone online. /list and /gc work from the console with OP 2 (Validator) or right away (PermissionAPI).

What to do: From the console always specify a name where there is [player]/[target]. Do not leave a command block with a bare /nuke.

/give does not collide with crates and breaks vanilla /give#

Crate keys are given with /crate key give <player> <crate> <amount> — a different literal, a different module. There is no overlap with /give.

NeoEssentials registers its own /give <target> <item> [amount]: item is a word without components/NBT, amount 1–3456. Vanilla /give <targets> <item> with @a selectors, count via component and data components in square brackets after the item is no longer parsed once the mod registers — Brigadier keeps the mod's node.

Item resolution — WorthManager: minecraft:diamond, diamond or a path fragment (copper takes the first id whose path contains "copper").

What to do: Do vanilla giving with NBT via /minecraft:give. For crates — only /crate key give. Do not rely on the "first diamond_ore vs diamond" order in fuzzy contains.

/fly and /god state is saved; the other personal toggles are not#

Enabled /fly and /god are written to the DataStore collection player_command_states by UUID and restored on the next login. Restoring requires the player to still have the corresponding neoessentials.fly or neoessentials.god permission; if the permission is revoked, the saved flag is deleted. playerTimes, playerWeather and unlimitedItems remain in-memory maps and are cleared on quit.

What to do: For permanent flight or protection enable /fly or /god once. For client-side time, weather and unlimited use a command block, a script or the panel after login.

/xp is not /exp, /mob is not /spawnmob#

/exp supports show/set/give and [target] on set/give. /xp — only bare, set and give for yourself. /spawnmob <mob> [amount] [target] spawns at another player; /mob stops at amount. Both aliases are labelled as full commands in the catalog, but the tree is shorter.

What to do: For another player's XP and mobs at another player use the canonical /exp and /spawnmob.

Known issues#

/pong and /fw are in /help but not in Brigadier#

NeoEssentials.java calls registerCommand("pong") and registerCommand("fw"), so the lines end up in the HelpCommand catalog. Neither PingCommand nor FunCommands creates Commands.literal("pong") / literal("fw"). Completion and parsing follow the tree: /pong and /fw are unknown commands (or vanilla/another mod, if someone else took them).

What to do: Ping — /ping. Firework — /firework clear|power|fire|color. Do not promise players aliases from /help until the literals appear in the source.

/info is labelled as a whois alias in the catalog but does something else#

registerCommand("info", "Get player information (alias)") describes whois, but WhoisCommand does not register an info literal. FunCommands attaches /info to printing the MOTD + a footer about /rules. Permission neoessentials.info, no arguments — /info Steve does not work as whois.

What to do: Player data — only /whois . Treat /info as a short MOTD.

/compass prints the card twice#

In the no-target branch CompassCommand calls showCompassInfo(...) twice in a row. The player sees a duplicated "facing / coordinates / biome" block. The [player] branch is called once.

What to do: Until it is fixed, read the first card. /compass for someone else has no duplicate.

/whois does not show offline players#

The word branch calls showOfflinePlayerInfo → getOfflinePlayerSeenInfo, which always returns Optional.empty() (an "integrate with SeenCommand" stub). Even with neoessentials.whois.detailed an offline name ends in player_not_found. Online — EntityArgument.player() — works.

What to do: Check offline status with /seen (seen_data.json). /whois only for those currently in the world.

Bare /fireball requires the nonexistent node fireball.fireball#

The root requires checks neoessentials.fireball. executeFireball for the default type "fireball" additionally requires neoessentials.fireball.fireball or neoessentials.fireball.*. There is no fireball.fireball node in PermissionRegistry. A player with only fireball (and no OP bypass) gets no_perm_type. The trident suggestion is in PROJECTILE_TYPES but not in the switch — a large fireball spawns.

What to do: Grant neoessentials.fireball.* (or OP with opsBypassPermissions). For the trident do not expect a separate entity.

/recipe, /give, /kill, /xp, /effect override vanilla#

The mod registers the same literals after vanilla. Lost: /recipe give, /give with selectors and components, /kill @e, full /xp add/query, vanilla /effect. The mod removes /help via reflection and installs its own. This is not a parsing failure — the last tree wins.

What to do: Vanilla parsing — with the namespace prefix: /minecraft:give, /minecraft:kill, /minecraft:recipe, /minecraft:xp, /minecraft:effect, /minecraft:help.

/rest does not skip the night#

The upstream wiki says "Skip the night (vote)". The implementation is resetStat(TIME_SINCE_REST): it zeroes the insomnia counter that makes phantoms spawn. The game day, weather and sleep vote do not change.

What to do: Night — /time night / /day or vanilla sleeping. /rest — anti-phantom only.

Detailed guide#

The section below is the project's original documentation (docs/Wiki/UtilitySystems.md). Links to other wiki pages are rewritten to this site; the guides themselves are not edited, so upstream syncs stay conflict-free.

Version: 1.0.4+build.16

Overview#

Miscellaneous quality-of-life commands covering player info, server admin tools, world/environment manipulation, fun commands, and player state management.

Player Info Commands#

Command	Aliases	Permission	Description
`/seen <player>`	—	`neoessentials.seen`	Show online/offline status with location or last-seen time
`/near [radius]`	`/nearby`	`neoessentials.near`	List nearby players and their distance (default 100 blocks, max 500)
`/ping [player]`	`/pong`	`neoessentials.ping`	Show own latency (colour-coded). Checking others requires `neoessentials.ping.others`
`/playtime [player]`	—	`neoessentials.playtime`	Show total play time in h/m/s. Others requires `neoessentials.playtime.others`
`/whois <player>`	—	`neoessentials.whois`	Show UUID, dimension, coords, gamemode, ping, health, food. Detailed view requires `neoessentials.whois.detailed`
`/realname <nick>`	—	`neoessentials.realname`	Look up real username from nickname
`/list`	`/who`, `/online`	`neoessentials.list`	List online players with count
`/motd`	—	`neoessentials.motd`	Display the active server MOTD

Permissions note: neoessentials.whois is an admin-only node (default: false). Use neoessentials.whois.detailed for detailed diagnostics (IPs, internal flags). neoessentials.ping.others is granted to all players by default.

Nicknames#

Commands#

Command	Permission	Description
`/nick`	`neoessentials.nick`	Show your current nickname
`/nick <name>`	`neoessentials.nick`	Set your nickname
`/nick reset`	`neoessentials.nick`	Remove your nickname
`/nick off`	`neoessentials.nick`	Alias for `/nick reset`
`/nickname …`	`neoessentials.nick`	Full alias — redirects to `/nick`
`/setnick <player> <name>`	`neoessentials.nick.others`	Set another player's nickname (admin)
`/setnick <player> reset`	`neoessentials.nick.others`	Remove another player's nickname (admin)

Permission nodes#

Node	Default	Description
`neoessentials.nick`	`true`	Set / clear own nickname
`neoessentials.nick.color`	`false`	Use `&`-colour codes in nickname
`neoessentials.nick.others`	`false`	Set / clear another player's nickname

Nickname rules#

Length: 3–16 characters (after stripping colour codes).
Characters: a-z A-Z 0-9 _ & # § only.
Uniqueness: case-insensitive; two players cannot share the same plain-text nick.
Colour codes: &0–9, &a–f, &k–r, and hex &#RRGGBB are all supported when the player has neoessentials.nick.color.

Storage#

Nicknames are persisted in config/neoessentials/nickname_data.json (UUID → raw nick string with & codes). They are loaded on server start and re-applied to all online players.

MOTD System#

The MOTD (Message of the Day) system supports multiple named profiles, auto-rotation, and web-dashboard management.

Commands#

Command	Permission	Description
`/motd`	`neoessentials.motd`	Show the active MOTD
`/motd set <message>`	`neoessentials.motd.set`	Set the active profile's MOTD text
`/motd clear`	`neoessentials.motd.set`	Clear the active profile's MOTD
`/motd reload`	`neoessentials.motd.reload`	Reload all profiles from disk
`/motd broadcast`	`neoessentials.motd.broadcast`	Broadcast active MOTD to all online players
`/motd profile list`	`neoessentials.motd.profile`	List all profiles and the active one
`/motd profile create <name> <message>`	`neoessentials.motd.profile`	Create or overwrite a named profile
`/motd profile delete <name>`	`neoessentials.motd.profile`	Delete a profile (at least one must remain)
`/motd profile switch <name>`	`neoessentials.motd.profile`	Switch the active profile
`/motd profile info [name]`	`neoessentials.motd.profile`	Show details for a profile (defaults to active)
`/motd rotation enable <minutes>`	`neoessentials.motd.rotation`	Enable auto-rotation every N minutes
`/motd rotation disable`	`neoessentials.motd.rotation`	Disable auto-rotation
`/motd rotation next`	`neoessentials.motd.rotation`	Rotate to the next profile immediately

Color codes#

Use & color codes in MOTD messages (e.g. &aGreen text &cRed text). They are converted to § automatically.

Profiles#

Profiles are persisted through the pluggable DataStore backend (JSON by default — see Storage Backend), across two collections:

motd_profiles — one record per profile, keyed by profile name, holding motd/author/timestamp
motd_meta — a single "settings" record holding activeProfile, rotationEnabled, rotationIntervalMinutes, and rotationCurrentIndex

Legacy file: config/neoessentials/motd_data.json (both the multi-profile layout and the older single-MOTD-at-root layout) is only read once, automatically, to migrate its contents into the DataStore collections above the first time the profile collection is empty — it is never written to again afterward.

Dashboard API#

The dashboard exposes /api/motd for full profile management:

Method	Path	Description
`GET`	`/api/motd`	Get all profiles + rotation settings
`GET`	`/api/motd/active`	Get the active profile only
`POST`	`/api/motd/profiles`	Create/update a profile `{name, motd, author?}`
`DELETE`	`/api/motd/profiles/{name}`	Delete a profile
`PUT`	`/api/motd/active`	Switch active profile `{name}`
`PUT`	`/api/motd/rotation`	Update rotation `{enabled, intervalMinutes}`
`POST`	`/api/motd/rotation/next`	Rotate to next profile immediately
`POST`	`/api/motd/broadcast`	Broadcast active MOTD to online players

Rules System#

The Rules system stores server rules in config/neoessentials/rules_data.json.
Rules are auto-generated with sensible defaults on first startup if no file exists.

Commands#

Command	Permission	Description
`/rules`	`neoessentials.rules`	Display rules (page 1)
`/rules <page>`	`neoessentials.rules`	Show a specific page
`/rules add <text>`	`neoessentials.rules.admin`	Append a new rule
`/rules remove <n>`	`neoessentials.rules.admin`	Remove rule number n
`/rules edit <n> <text>`	`neoessentials.rules.admin`	Replace rule number n
`/rules insert <n> <text>`	`neoessentials.rules.admin`	Insert rule before position n
`/rules clear`	`neoessentials.rules.admin`	Remove all rules
`/rules reload`	`neoessentials.rules.admin`	Reload rules from disk without a server restart

Color codes#

Use & color codes in rule text (e.g. &cNo griefing). They are converted to § automatically when displayed.

Data file#

Rules are stored in config/neoessentials/rules_data.json:

{
  "rules": [
    "&6Be respectful to all players and staff members",
    "&cNo griefing, stealing, or destroying other players' builds",
    "&eNo spamming in chat or using excessive caps"
  ]
}

Location: config/neoessentials/rules_data.json
Generated automatically: Yes — 10 default rules are written on first start if the file is absent.
Edit in-game: Use /rules add, /rules edit, /rules remove.
Edit on disk: Modify rules_data.json directly, then run /rules reload in-game.

Legacy migration: Servers upgrading from NeoEssentials <1.0.2.6 may have rules.json.
NeoEssentials automatically detects and migrates it to rules_data.json on first load — no manual action needed.

Console feedback#

NeoEssentials logs detailed guidance to the console when rules fail to load:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  RULES LOAD ERROR: rules_data.json is corrupt JSON  ║
║  File: config/neoessentials/rules_data.json         ║
║  Error: Unexpected character ...                    ║
║  Fix:  Delete the file and run /rules reload to     ║
║        regenerate defaults, then re-add your rules. ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

If the file is simply missing, NeoEssentials creates it automatically and logs its absolute path along with quick-start edit instructions.

Dashboard API#

The dashboard exposes /api/rules for full rule management:

Method	Path	Description
`GET`	`/api/rules`	List all rules with 1-based index
`POST`	`/api/rules`	Replace all rules `{"rules": ["...", ...]}`
`POST`	`/api/rules/add`	Append a rule `{"rule": "..."}`
`PUT`	`/api/rules/{n}`	Edit rule at position n `{"rule": "..."}`
`DELETE`	`/api/rules/{n}`	Delete rule at position n
`POST`	`/api/rules/reload`	Reload rules from disk

All /api/rules endpoints require Bearer-token authentication (same as every other dashboard endpoint).

Helpop#

The /helpop command lets players send requests to online staff. Staff receive them if they have the neoessentials.helpop.receive permission.

Commands#

Command	Aliases	Permission	Description
`/helpop <message>`	`/ac`, `/amsg`	`neoessentials.helpop`	Send a help request to all online staff

Permission nodes#

Node	Default	Description
`neoessentials.helpop`	`true`	Send a help request
`neoessentials.helpop.receive`	`false`	Receive help requests (staff)

Behaviour#

Messages are broadcast to all online players who have neoessentials.helpop.receive.
The sender's name is prefixed in the staff notification (e.g. [HelpOp] PlayerName: message).
Console operators always receive helpop messages.

Suicide#

Commands#

Command	Aliases	Permission	Description
`/suicide`	`/killme`	`neoessentials.suicide`	Kill yourself (requires confirmation)
`/suicide confirm`	`/killme confirm`	`neoessentials.suicide`	Confirm the suicide within 10 seconds

Behaviour#

/suicide displays a confirmation prompt. Players have 10 seconds to type /suicide confirm.
If the confirmation window expires, the prompt is silently cancelled.
After a successful suicide, a 30-second cooldown prevents spamming.
/suicide is blocked in Creative and Spectator modes.
Death uses DamageTypes.GENERIC_KILL (does not count as PvP; no attacker credited).

Note: /kill is the vanilla admin command (can target entities). NeoEssentials' /suicide is strictly self-only and is intentionally not aliased to /kill.

Depth#

Shows Y-coordinate information including depth below sea level and height above bedrock.

Commands#

Command	Permission	Description
`/depth`	`neoessentials.depth`	Show own depth/elevation info
`/depth <player>`	`neoessentials.depth.others`	Show another player's depth info

Output#

Current Y level
Depth below / height above sea level (Y=63)
Height above bedrock (Y=−64)
Layer description (e.g. Deepslate Region, Nether, Diamond Level)
