Simple Kill Command

Configurable self-kill command for Minecraft servers.

By default, players can run /kill without OP permission. The command only kills the player who runs it; it does not accept targets.

Artifacts

Platform	Jar	Output	Target
Bukkit-compatible	SimpleKillCommand-Bukkit	bukkit/build/libs/	Bukkit, CraftBukkit, Spigot, Paper, Purpur, Pufferfish, Leaf/Leaves, Folia
Fabric	SimpleKillCommand-Fabric	fabric/build/libs/	Fabric Loader 0.19.3+, Minecraft 1.21.11
Forge	SimpleKillCommand-Forge	forge/build/libs/	Forge 61+, Minecraft 1.21.11

The Bukkit-compatible jar is intended for Minecraft 1.8.9 through 26.2 on servers that run Java 17 or newer. Fabric and Forge builds are version-specific and should be rebuilt for each additional Minecraft version.

Forge 61 requires Java 21. Bukkit-compatible and Fabric artifacts target Java 17 bytecode.

Fabric and Forge artifacts are server-side only. Players do not need to install them on their clients.

Build

Building all modules requires JDK 21.

./gradlew build

On Windows:

.\gradlew.bat build

Configuration

The default command name is kill. Set command.name to use another command instead.

command.override-existing controls whether an existing server command with the same label should be replaced. This is enabled by default because Minecraft already has a /kill command.

Bukkit

plugins/SimpleKillCommand/config.yml

command:
  name: kill
  # YAML list. Example: [suicide, selfkill]
  aliases: []
  override-existing: true
  permission: ""

command.permission is a Bukkit permission node. Leave it empty to allow every player to use the command.

Fabric and Forge

config/simplekillcommand.properties

command.name=kill
command.aliases=
command.override-existing=true
command.permission=
command.permission-level=0

command.aliases is comma-separated in the Fabric and Forge properties file. Example: command.aliases=suicide,selfkill.

command.permission-level is the Minecraft command permission level, clamped to 0 through 4. Leave it at 0 to allow every player to use the command.

command.permission is not used by the Fabric and Forge builds.

Example:

command.name=suicide
command.aliases=kill

Messages can also be changed in the generated config.
