SI Wiki - Configuration

Server-side Configuration

By default, SI: Death Bolt generates a configuration in /<minecraftDir>/config/ called sidb-server.toml. However, if you want to have a configuration that is specific to each world, you can copy over the sidb-server.toml file from your /<minecraftDir>/config/ folder to your world folder in /<minecraftDir>/saves/<world>/serverconfig/.

Migration to new config system (.cnfg)

In the future we will start using our own config API using SI: Essentials to even allow SI: Death Bolt to run on Fabric. Therefore the config path for the mod will change and you will need to manually migrate to the new format.

Configuration Values

`modPrefix`

The Mod prefix. This String will be prepended to all messages the mod outputs that can be seen in the chat except in the death messages.

Message Formatting

This value supports MiniMessage Formatting, a more advanced way to style messages.

Type: String
Default Value: <bold><white>[</white><gradient:#2F97DD:#026DCA>SI: Death Bolt</gradient><white>]</white></bold>

`enableLightningBolt`

Whether a Lightning Bolt should be spawned at the players death location. Setting this to false will prevent most features of the mod from functioning.

Type: Boolean
Default Value: true

`boltVisual`

Whether the Lightning Bolt should only be visual and therefore should not damage entities or burn Items.

Type: Boolean
Default Value: true
Requires: enableLightningBolt = true

`globalSound`

Whether the Lightning Bolt should be heard from anywhere in the world or not.

Notice

The sound cannot be heard by players that are in a different dimension than the player that died.

Type: Boolean
Default Value: false
Requires: enableLightningBolt = true

`blacklistedWorlds`

Worlds in which a Lightning Bolt should not strike upon a player's death.

Syntax

This setting will only work if you supply the actual dimension ID, e.g.: minecraft:overworld You can find the ID of the dimension you're currently in by opening the F3 debug screen.

Type: List<String>
Default Value: [""]
Requires: enableLightningBolt = true

`deathAction`

What action should be taken upon a players death.

Type: String / Enum
Allowed Values: NONE / MSG / KICK / BAN / TITLE
Default Value: MSG
Requires: enableLightningBolt = true

`overrideDeathMessage`

Whether the vanilla death message should be overridden or not. If enabled, the value of punishMessage will be used.

Independant setting

This setting is independant from every other setting. That means you can, for example, disable the spawning of a lightning bolt but still override everyone's death messages. However, this also means that if you set deathAction to MSG, two messages will appear in chat. Therefore setting deathAction to anything else than MSG is recommended.

Type: Boolean
Default Value: false (Since Version 1.1.1)
Requires: enableLightningBolt = true

`msgType`

What type of message should be sent upon a player's death.

Type: String / Enum
Allowed Values: MSG_PRIVATE / MSG_BROADCAST / MSG_PRIVATE_ACTIONBAR / MSG_BROADCAST_ACTIONBAR
Default Value: MSG_BROADCAST
Requires: deathAction = "MSG"

`punishMessage`

Message to be sent upon a player's death or the message to be displayed upon disconnecting due to kicking/banning them.

Message Formatting

This value supports MiniMessage Formatting, a more advanced way to style messages.

Type: String
Available Placeholders: %player%
Default Value: <red>☠ <b>%player%</b> died!
Requires: deathAction = "MSG" / deathAction = "KICK" / deathAction = "BAN"
