Stella 🌠

Stella is a star-powered player-teams plugin for Spigot & Paper servers — lightweight, fully configurable, and built to organize your players with priorities, colors, and powerful targeting.

Supports Minecraft 1.20.x – 1.21.x on Spigot/Paper (and forks like Purpur). LuckPerms & PlaceholderAPI are optional.

Features 💫

Teams with priorities — when a player belongs to several teams, the highest-priority one wins as their "main" team.
Per-team hex colors — give each team a #RRGGBB color that drives vanilla nametag & tab colors.
Smart member targeting — add or remove players one by one, or in bulk with @all, @online, and @team:<id> to move an entire team at once.
LuckPerms integration — mirror team membership as permission groups automatically.
Scoreboard team hook — reflect teams as vanilla scoreboard teams so nametags take the team color.
Auto-team on join — drop new players into a default team automatically (with a bypass permission).
PlaceholderAPI support — 21 placeholders for chat, scoreboards, tab lists and more.
Fully configurable messages — restyle every line the plugin sends in messages.yml.
Developer API — query and manage teams from your own plugins, with cancellable events.
Update checker — get notified on Modrinth releases.
UUID-based genestorage — so memberships survive name changes. THIS PLUGIN DOES NOT WORK ON OFFLINE-MODE (CRACKED) SERVERS!
