About this Mod
MKT Essentials
A comprehensive, all-in-one server-side utility mod for NeoForge 1.21.1. Everything you need to run a Minecraft server — homes, warps, moderation, authentication, inventory backups, and much more — in a single lightweight package.
✨ Why MKT Essentials?
- All-in-one — No need for 10+ separate mods. Teleportation, moderation, kits, chat formatting, auth, and admin tools in one place.
- Server-side only — Players don't need to install anything. Works with vanilla clients.
- Fully configurable — YAML-based config with per-command toggles, i18n support (English & Polish), and per-group chat formatting.
- Lightweight — Designed for performance with async operations, entity stacking, and smart caching.
- Permission-based — Fine-grained permission nodes for every command. Works with LuckPerms out of the box.
🏠 Teleportation
- Homes — Set, teleport to, and manage personal home locations
- Warps — Server-wide warp points for admins to create
- TPA — Teleport requests with support for multiple pending requests
- RTP — Async random teleport with biome blacklist and safe-landing checks
- Back — Return to your previous location after death or teleport
- Spawn / Top / TpAll — Quick navigation commands
🔐 Authentication & Discord Linking
Built-in authentication system with an embedded Discord bot — no external plugins needed.
- 5 Auth Modes — Full, auth-only, link-only, optional, or disabled
- Register & Login — Password-based with BCrypt hashing
- Discord Account Linking — Generate a 6-digit code in-game, verify on Discord
- Embedded Discord Bot — JDA-powered, registers slash commands, assigns roles on link
- Freeze System — Unauthenticated players can't move, interact, or chat
- Newbie Protection — Configurable invulnerability period for first-time players
- Session Management — Auto-login from same IP within configurable timeout
🔨 Moderation
- Ban / Tempban / Unban — With duration parsing (
1d12h,30m) and ban screen with reason + remaining time - Mute / Unmute — Timed or permanent, works on offline players
- Kick — With optional reason
- Shadowban — 4 methods: timeout, full disconnect, fake internal-error, or phantom mode (hidden from tab + silenced chat)
💾 Inventory Backups
- Automatic — On death, join, and quit (each toggleable)
- Scheduled — Optional periodic backups for all online players
- GUI Browser — Click to preview, right-click to restore
- Curios Support — Backs up and restores Curios API slots

⚙️ Configuration
Clean YAML-based configuration split into logical files:
config/mktessentials/
├── settings.yml — All feature settings
├── commands.yml — Enable/disable any command
├── messages.yml — Chat format, join/quit, broadcasts
└── lang/
├── en_us.yml — English
└── pl_pl.yml — Polish
Every command can be individually toggled on or off. Every player-facing message is customizable through the language files.
🔗 Optional Integrations
| Mod | What it adds |
|---|---|
| LuckPerms | Permissions, prefix/suffix, per-group chat format |
| Text Placeholder API | Placeholders in chat and tab (%mktessentials:name%, etc.) |
| TAB | Tab list placeholders |
| Curios API | Curios slots visible in /invsee and included in backups |
All integrations are fully optional — the mod works perfectly without any of them.

MKT Essentials server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong neoforge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is MKT Essentials compatible with neoforge?
MKT Essentials officially supports neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with MKT Essentials – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if MKT Essentials consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
