Pixelrus Mod Docs

Docs for every Pixelrus first-party mod and plugin. Each page is pulled from the docs/ folder of that mod's GitHub repo, so the repo is always the place to change it: use the edit button at the top of any page.

Battles

Name	Type	What it does
Battle Core	Mod	Shared library for the Snowbird battle mods. It owns arenas, rulesets, NPC trainers, rewards, cooldowns and the battle database, so Showdown and Battle Tower do not each build their own.
Battle Debug	Mod	Records a detailed timeline of every Pixelmon battle so staff can find out why a battle got stuck on Waiting.... It only watches. It never changes, advances or ends a battle.
Battle Tower	Mod	Sequential PvE runs against NPC trainers for Pixelmon. A player enters a tower and fights one trainer per stage, back to back, with no chance to open menus or leave between battles.
Pixelmon Team Editor	Mod	Lets players open Pixelmon's Pokemon Editor without Creative mode, and keeps an editor item in their hotbar. Built for the events battle arena, where players are in Adventure mode.
Showdown (Competitive Battles)	Mod	Competitive Pokemon battles: a ranked queue with ELO, leaderboards and seasons, player and automated tournaments, draft tournaments, and the Draft Factory format. Built on Battlecore.

Activities and rewards

Name	Type	What it does
Daily Research	Mod	Daily and weekly Pixelmon tasks for every player: three dailies and three weeklies (Easy, Medium, Hard), each paying money. Progress is shared across every server, so a task started on one server can be finished on another.
Pixelmon Hunt	Mod	Player-chosen Pokemon hunts. A player picks a difficulty, gets a target Pokemon with requirements, catches one that matches, and turns it in for money and an IV boost on that Pokemon.
Pixelrus In-Game Wiki (/pwiki)	Mod	Adds /pwiki: look up any Pokemon or page from the Pixelrus Wiki in game. Pokemon open a chest-style menu with stats, spawns, evolutions, moves and more; other pages show a preview in chat with a link to the website.
ReferralRewards	Plugin	Gives every player a permanent referral code. When a new player enters a friend's code, both players get store credit on the Azuriom website.
ReforgedBingo (Snowbird fork)	Mod	Pokemon catching bingo. A player starts a card when they choose, picks a difficulty, catches the Pokemon on the card, and earns money per square, per line, for the full card, and for speed.

Spawns and catching

Name	Type	What it does
Catch Combo Bank	Mod	Lets players save the catch combo they are on in a personal bank and take it back out later. Depositing costs money (Vault, so XConomy on this network). Withdrawing is free.
Catch Combo Persistence	Mod	Saves each player's Pixelmon catch combo so it survives logouts, restarts and crashes. Without it, Pixelmon resets the combo to zero every time.
Legendary Tracker	Mod	Runs wild legendary spawns on this network: it spawns a set number of legendaries each day on a schedule, keeps each one from despawning for 30 minutes, tells players where it is if nobody catches it, and announces spawns on Discord.
Pixelmon CheckSpawns Perms	Mod	Controls how much of /checkspawns legendary and /checkspawns megaboss each rank can see, makes the spawn list match what the spawner really does, and lets a rank use /givepixelsprite without op.
Pixelmon Legendary Timer Persist	Mod	Keeps Pixelmon's legendary and mega boss spawn countdowns from resetting when the server restarts or runs /reload. Without it, every restart starts a fresh full wait.
Pixelmon Raid Legendary Rate	Mod	Makes legendary and Ultra Beast raid bosses equally rare in every biome, at a rate staff set, with optional per-dimension rates and fewer legendary raids when many players are online.
PokeRemoval	Mod	Clears wild Pokemon and dropped items from every loaded dimension on a timer, with chat warnings before each sweep. Shiny, legendary, boss, raid, owned and battling Pokemon are never removed.

Economy and items

Name	Type	What it does
Breeding Tickets	Mod	Makes every Day Care breeding cost one Breeding Ticket. Tickets are sold in the server shop, which turns breeding into a money sink.
Economy Warehouse Bridge (mod)	Mod	The NeoForge half of the economy audit system. It tells the EconomyWarehouseBridge plugin why money moved when the cause is inside Pixelmon (shop, battle, NPC, Day Care), so the economy dashboards show a real reason instead of "unknown".
Economy Warehouse Bridge (plugin)	Plugin	Records every money movement on the server into a MariaDB "warehouse", with the reason it happened, so staff can audit the economy and build dashboards. Also keeps daily balance snapshots.
Pixelmon GTS	Mod	A Global Trade Station: players sell Pokemon and items to each other for money, by fixed price or auction, and post buy orders for things they want. Everything runs from the /gts menu.
PokeLootWeights	Mod	Lets staff set the drop chance of each item in Pixelmon PokeLoot chests. Pixelmon picks chest loot evenly from a flat list; this mod picks by weight from a config file instead.
Skin Tickets	Mod	Tradable paper tickets that players redeem for a Pokemon skin (palette), an extra PC box, an extra Day Care slot, or an extra vault page. Every ticket has a unique serial, so copies are caught and removed.
Trainer Card Balance Hider	Mod	Hides a player's money from other players. When you look at someone else's Pixelmon trainer card, their balance shows 0. Your own card, inventory and balance are unchanged.

Storage and rank perks

Name	Type	What it does
Pixelmon Bridge	Mod	Shared library that owns every change to a player's Pixelmon PC box count and Day Care slot count. Other mods and plugins say what a player is entitled to; this mod works out the total and applies it.
PlayerWarpSlots	Plugin	Sets how many PlayerWarps each player may own on main, by adding their donor rank's free slots to any extra slots they bought. Ranks can change or lapse without anyone losing a purchased slot.
StorageRankFloors	Plugin	Gives donor ranks more Pixelmon PC boxes and Day Care breeding slots. Each rank sets a minimum total through a LuckPerms node, and the pixelmonbridge mod applies it.
VaultTickets	Plugin	Decides how many AxVaults vault pages each player gets on main, from their donor rank plus any vault tickets they redeemed. It keeps those pages correct as ranks are bought, upgraded, or lapse.

Chat and social

Name	Type	What it does
CarbonChat Cross-Server Prefix (backend)	Plugin	Adds a gold [server] tag in front of global chat messages that came from another server, so players can tell where a message was sent. It is a CarbonChat add-on and does nothing without it.
PokeLink	Plugin	Lets a player show off a Pokemon from their party in chat by typing [p1] to [p6]. The token turns into the Pokemon's name, colored by its type, with a hover card that shows its stats.
SiteLink	Plugin	Adds /site and /website on the proxy. Both send the player a clickable link to the server website, and both tab-complete on every server.
Snowbird Command Bridge	Plugin	Makes /msg, /tell and /w send ChatControl's cross-server private messages instead of vanilla's single-server ones. Players keep the commands they already know.
SnowbirdTags	Plugin	Runs chat tags across the whole network: which tags a player owns, which one they show, and the /tags menu to pick one. It also handles rank badges, the chat name hover card, and custom join, leave and AFK messages.
TAB Server Badge	Plugin	Adds a small server tag, like [Build], after a player's name in the tablist so you can see which server they are on. The tag only shows to people on a different server.

Warps, maps and building

Name	Type	What it does
BiomeWarps	Plugin	Config-driven warp menus: each menu gets its own command, a paged chest GUI, and direct teleports. On main it runs /biome and /biomes, a browser of 173 biome warps.
GDHooks (Snowbird fork)	Plugin	Snowbird fork of GDHooks: shows GriefDefender claims on the BlueMap web map, with fixes for this network. Upstream GDHooks cannot do this on our servers, so we keep our own build.
PersistFly	Plugin	Keeps a player's flight turned on when they change worlds or dimensions, respawn, or log back in. For ops it also keeps their gamemode.
RopeWeb	Mod	A builder tool: places diagonal "ropes" made of Biomes O' Plenty stringy cobwebs with one command, so builders do not have to set each block's facing and shape by hand.
WarpMarkers	Plugin	Shows the server's public EssentialsX warps as clickable markers on the BlueMap web map. Each marker shows the warp name and the /warp command to get there.
WorldEditCopier (plugin)	Plugin	A staff tool that copies very large builds between servers. It saves a region as many small WorldEdit schematics and pastes them back one piece at a time, so the server does not freeze.

Network and joining

Name	Type	What it does
Gateway (Velocity + PackGatewayBackend)	Plugin	Checks every player's modpack version at the proxy and sends them to the right first server: modded players to the modded hub, unmodded players to the info hub, and outdated packs to an update screen. Its main half can send brand-new players to a tutorial spot with a Pokégear.
Youer Bungee Channel Shim	Plugin	Fixes cross-server plugin messages on our Youer (modded) backends, so proxy messages reach plugins like ChatControl. Without it, cross-server chat only works one way on those servers.

Fixes and performance

Name	Type	What it does
Immersive Furniture GD Guard	Mod	Closes a GriefDefender bypass in Immersive Furniture: on furniture wider than one block, players without container trust could open the chest by clicking an extension cell. This mod blocks that.
Immersive Furniture Registry Sync Fix	Mod	Fixes Immersive Furniture losing custom furniture designs when a server has more than 128 of them. Players were missing furniture because whole batches of the furniture list never reached their client.
Pixelmon CheckSpawns Fix	Mod	Stops /checkspawns fishing (and other spawn checks that include a spawn collection) from crashing the server.
Pixelmon NPC Editor Fixes	Mod	Fixes bugs in Pixelmon's in-game NPC editor so staff can build NPCs, save them as presets, and have them survive a restart.
Pixelmon Perf	Mod	Performance tuning for Pixelmon on a busy server: Pokemon far from players stop thinking, nearby Pokemon think less often, and the spawner scans fewer blocks. Players should not notice anything except a faster server.
Quark Shop Guard	Mod	Stops Quark's inventory buttons (Insert, Extract, Restock, Sort) from working inside plugin menus such as shops, so they cannot be used to pull items out of a GUI. They still work in real chests.
