Standalone season reset scheduler for Minecraft servers - EzSeasons

---

Summary

EzSeasons schedules and broadcasts season resets for Bukkit and Paper servers. It is a focused reset Minecraft plugin designed for server owners who run periodic wipes, seasons, or server resets.

Features

- Automatic season reset scheduling (explicit windows or duration-based) - Explicit scheduling: `season.start` and `season.end` - Fallback duration scheduling: `season.length-days` - Optional recurring windows: `season.recurring` - Reminder broadcasts: `season.reminder-minutes`, `season.reminder-message` - Reset broadcast: `season.broadcast-message` - Runtime admin commands and status reporting - Developer API: `SeasonsApi`, `SeasonsIntegration`, `SeasonResetEvent`

Quick Install (Bukkit / Paper)

1. Drop the plugin jar into your server's `plugins` folder. 2. Start or restart the server. 3. Edit `config.yml` to set schedule and messages.

Example configuration (config.yml)

```yaml season: enabled: true

Use explicit timestamps (millis) for a specific window, or leave 0 to use length-days

start: 0 end: 0 recurring: false length-days: 30 check-interval-minutes: 5 broadcast-message: "Season resets in {time}!" reminder-minutes: [60, 30, 10, 1] reminder-message: "Season resets in {minutes} minute(s)!" ```

Commands

- `/season` - show current status and next reset - `/season admin reload` - reload plugin config - `/season admin reset [reason]` - trigger an immediate reset (admin only) - `/season admin setnext <unixMillis>` - set next reset time manually - `/season admin clear-next` - clear next-reset override

Permissions

- `lifesteal.season` (default: true) - allows `/season` - `lifesteal.admin` (default: op) - allows all admin commands

Developer API

Obtain `SeasonsApi` via Bukkit Services Manager. Available methods: - `registerIntegration(SeasonsIntegration integration)` - `unregisterIntegration(SeasonsIntegration integration)` - `getIntegrations()` - `triggerSeasonReset(String reason)`

Events published: - `SeasonResetEvent` - `SeasonsIntegrationRegisteredEvent` - `SeasonsIntegrationUnregisteredEvent`

Best Practices for Server Owners

- Always test reset behavior on a staging server before scheduling production wipes. - Combine EzSeasons with your backup tooling - EzSeasons does not perform backups. - Use `season.reminder-minutes` to announce the reset early and reduce player frustration.
