✨ Key Features
- In-Game Server Controls: Adds Start, Stop, and Restart buttons directly to your server entries in the multiplayer list.
- Smart Display: Buttons only appear for servers that match the configurable node address, keeping your server list clean.
- Dynamic Status: The buttons are intelligent! They automatically enable or disable based on the server's live ping status in Minecraft (Online, Offline, or Pinging) to prevent mistakes.
- Offline? Only the "Start" button is active.
- Online? Only "Restart" and "Stop" are active.
- Pinging? All buttons are temporarily disabled.
- Automatic Refresh: After sending a command, the buttons will temporarily disable and then automatically update to reflect the server's new state after a few seconds.
- Easy Configuration: A simple in-game settings screen (via Mod Menu) lets you set up your Pterodactyl panel URL, API key, and node address in seconds.
