Sentry
Staff tools for Paper servers on a Bridge network: mod mode, vanish, freeze, reports, notes, staff chat and Polar anticheat alerts.
What Sentry is
Sentry is the staff toolkit for Paper servers on a Bridge network. It comes with Bridge and is not sold on its own.
It runs on your Paper servers only. Nothing goes on the Velocity proxy.
What it adds
- Mod mode.
/staffmodeswaps your inventory for staff tools, blocks building and fighting, and shows a staff sidebar. See Mod mode and vanish. - Vanish. Hide from players and from lower-ranked staff, with optional vanish on join.
- Freeze. Lock a player in place while you check them, with a reminder to join your Discord. See Freeze.
- Reports and help requests. Players report from a category menu or ask for help with
/helpop. Staff on every server get an alert. See Reports and help requests. - Notes. Private staff notes on a player's profile.
- Staff and admin chat. Two chat channels shared across your Paper servers. See Notes and staff chat.
- Anticheat alerts. If your servers run the Polar anticheat, Sentry turns its detections into alerts for staff on every server and keeps a log per player. See Anticheat alerts.
What stays on one server
Some tools only cover the server you are on:
- Mod mode, vanish and freeze apply on the current server. Switching servers or logging out ends them.
/onlinestaffand the mod mode staff list show staff on the current server only./report,/freezeand/vanish <player>only find players on the same server as you.
Reports, help requests, freeze alerts, staff chat and anticheat alerts reach staff on every Paper server running Sentry.
Requirements
- A working Bridge network. See Bridge requirements.
- Kernel, Bridge and packetevents on each Paper server that runs Sentry.
- Optional: the Polar anticheat, only for anticheat alerts. Everything else works without it.
