Minecraft plugin GSit

🔌 About GSit

GSit — is a Minecraft plugin for servers that adds sitting, laying, crawling and pose interactions so players can sit on stairs, chairs or with commands. The plugin focuses on in‑game poses and chair interactions and is widely used on Paper/Spigot (and forks).

🎯 Purpose

GSit solves the lack of built‑in player poses and convenient seating in vanilla Minecraft. It gives server owners QoL features to let players sit on blocks or other players and to perform lay/spin/bellyflop/crawl animations via commands or interactions.

⚙ Core features

• Sit on blocks (stairs and configurable sitable blocks) and on players via click. ()
• Commands: /sit, /lay, /bellyflop, /spin, /crawl and toggles for click/double‑sneak crawling. ()
• Configurable behavior and language files (many localization options available). ()
• Works on Bukkit/Spigot/Paper and forks (Folia supported). Supported/tested on MC 1.16–1.21 (native 1.21). Pose/crawl features require newer protocol support (Pose/Crawl functionality noted for 1.18+). ()

🧩 Who it's for

• Roleplay and community servers that want realistic seating and poses.
• Survival or creative servers wanting extra social/immersion features.
• Admins who need configurable, performant QoL features without client mods.

🏗 Usage examples

• Players use /sit or right‑click stairs to sit during roleplay events.
• Staff enable crawling in adventure maps with /crawl toggle for map mechanics.
• Servers use /lay to let players rest or show sleeping animations without a resource pack.

⌨️ Commands

Commands and permission nodes listed above are taken from the official Spigot resource and project documentation. Use only confirmed nodes when mapping permissions. ()

🔐 Permissions

(Note: Spigot lists permission nodes and indicates default markings in the resource page; exact default assignment per node should be verified from the plugin.yml or tested on a server if exact default values are required). ()

⚙ Installation

📥 Installation

• Download the GSit JAR from the official resource or build from source. ()
• Put the JAR into your server plugins/ folder.
• Restart the server (full restart recommended).
• Check console for successful load messages.

📦 Dependencies

• No mandatory external dependencies are documented on the official resource. GSit runs on Bukkit/Spigot/Paper and forks; it does not list Vault/PlaceholderAPI/etc. as required in the official description. If you rely on integrations, confirm via the plugin documentation or config. ()

🧾 Configuration

• GSit provides configuration and language files after first run; many options are configurable in the plugin config and language files. ()
• MySQL/SQLite support: Not mentioned in official resources; database support is not a documented feature in the main resource. Information about external DB support is absent in the official sources. ()

🧠 Additional information

⚠ Known conflicts

• The official resource documents a general "Known Bugs / Issues" section and asks users to report bugs in the discussion or Discord; no specific wide conflicts with named plugins are listed on the main resource. For plugin conflicts (other seating/fake‑entity plugins) test on staging before production. ()

Limitations

• Pose and crawl features rely on protocol/server features available since newer Minecraft versions — Spigot notes pose/crawl functionality works from 1.18+ and the plugin is maintained for 1.16–1.21 (native 1.21). Verify feature availability per MC minor version. ()
