What IceLater is

IceLater is a free, modular anti-cheat plugin for Minecraft Java servers using Spigot or Paper. It lists checks for Speed, Fly, Reach, NoFall, FastBreak, AutoClick, PacketRate, and KillAura. Administrators can enable, disable, add, remove, or customize checks in config.yml, with sensitivity adjusted separately for each check. Violations accumulate across checks toward a configured ban threshold. When that threshold is reached, the plugin can ban and kick a player with a configurable message. The anticheat.bypass permission exempts trusted players from every check. The /anticheat status command displays active checks and settings, while /anticheat reload applies configuration changes without a restart. Requirements include Java 17 or later and Spigot or Paper 1.20.x. Installation involves building a JAR with Maven and placing it in the server plugins folder. It uses the MIT License, and GitHub issues are listed for support.
