One Mod, all the features you need

Paradigm started because I needed a simple announcement mod for Forge (Thats why, older files are named "ForgeAnnouncements").

Then I needed another feature, and another. And eventually I got tired of installing a bunch of different mods just to do different things, each with its own configs, commands and way of working.

So Paradigm slowly became the mod I wanted to have from the start: server administration, communication and automation in one place.

And lately, that is also part of the goal. Give smaller servers and networks access to the kind of tools you usually see on much bigger modded networks, without needing a whole team of developers behind them.

Local Server/Network Dashboard

Paradigm includes a built-in local web dashboard for server administration and configuration.

  • Configuration editors for each module No external panel required. It runs with your server all localy.

Server Administration

  • /home and /back
  • /tpa

And plenty of admin utilities:

/vanish, /god, /invsee, /repair, /enchant, /sudo, /near, /whois, /top, /jump, /jump

Most built-in commands can be individually enabled or disabled.
