🛥️ BoatLimiter

BoatLimiter is a plugin I created to stop excessive boat spam and the massive lag it can cause on servers.

The main reason for this was a common problem: players building so-called 0, where hundreds of boats get stacked into one spot using dispensers. This can easily drop your server’s TPS down to 0 within seconds. That’s exactly what BoatLimiter is designed to prevent.

With this plugin, you can control how many boats are allowed in a small area (radius) and per chunk — no matter if they’re placed by players or automatically through dispensers or droppers.

It’s easy to set up, simple to configure, and works right away without needing anything else.
