1 Feature

1.1 Offline Player

You can change the gamemode of a player, even he (or she) was offline.

1.2 Permissions

Allow permission group plugins (like Luckperms) to manage which gamemodes can be switched to and which gamemodes cannot be switched to.

e.g. Allow to switch to survival mode but not to any other mode.

1.3 Alias

/gamemode is simplified to /gm and /g.

(of course you can still use /gamemode)

1.4 Cross-Server Storage

Support MySQL and SQLite storage backends. Player gamemodes are saved and synchronized across multiple servers in a network.

1.5 Folia Support

Fully compatible with Folia servers — using region-based scheduling for optimal performance.

1.6 Lightweight

The Plugin size is only ~25 KB and has almost no impact on server performance!

2 Caution

2.1 Shortcut Keys

If you need to use shortcut keys such as F3+F4, please install another plugin F3NPerm.

6 Developer API (Async)

Get Instance

Main plugin = Main.getInstance();

Get Player Gamemode

plugin.getPlayerMode(playerUUID).thenAccept(mode -> {
    if (mode != null) {
        // mode is GameMode.SURVIVAL, CREATIVE, ADVENTURE, or SPECTATOR
        // Player is online or has saved data
    } else {
        // Player not found or no saved gamemode yet
    }
});

Set Player Gamemode

plugin.setPlayerMode(playerUUID, GameMode.SURVIVAL).thenAccept(success -> {
    if (success) {
        // Gamemode changed and saved successfully
        // Works for both online and offline players
    } else {
        // Failed to save (database error, etc.)
    }
});

Listen to Gamemode Changes

@EventHandler
public void onGamemodeChange(GamemodeChangeEvent event) {
    Player player = event.getPlayer();      // Online player only
    GameMode oldMode = event.getOldMode();
    GameMode newMode = event.getNewMode();
}

Note: All APIs are fully async and thread-safe. The GamemodeChangeEvent is only fired for online players when their mode is actually changed. The getPlayerMode() method returns null if the player has no saved gamemode data.
