⏳ Standalone-Queue
A lightweight, highly configurable, and standalone queue management system for Minecraft servers & proxies.
🌟 Overview
Standalone-Queue is designed to seamlessly manage player traffic when your server reaches peak capacity. Unlike bloated network suites, this plugin provides a rock-solid, zero-dependency, and lightweight queue system that works right out of the box.
Whether you run a single dedicated server or a high-traffic network, Standalone-Queue ensures fair player handling, smooth connections, and complete control over priority routing.
