💡 Ideal for modded servers, roleplay setups, or controlled community environments.

Permission reference

🟢 LuckPerms handles wildcards automatically.
🟡 Without LuckPerms, .allow_default nodes act as fallbacks.


⚙️ LuckPerms Integration Notice

LuckPerms does not currently display or auto-discover permissions from NeoForge mods.
All permission checks in PermNodes use plain string-based nodes (e.g., blocks.place.minecraft.dirt, use.minecraft.bucket).
These nodes are fully compatible with LuckPerms — they can be assigned, inherited, and checked normally — but they will only appear in the LuckPerms web editor after they have been explicitly created or used (for example, once a permission is checked in-game or manually added to a group).

If you want a predefined list of all available PermNodes permissions to appear in LuckPerms, you can create a template group containing the desired nodes.
This feature may be automated in a future update.

Frequently Asked Questions

PermNodes 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 (1.21.9). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is PermNodes compatible with neoforge?

PermNodes officially supports neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.9, 1.21.8. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with PermNodes – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if PermNodes 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.
