Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install PacketEvents separately?
Yes—PacketEvents must be in your plugins folder alongside the Silent Sentry jar for packet checks to work. The server will warn you on startup if it's missing.
How do I stop the plugin from kicking legit players?
Set all punishments to report-only mode in the config, then use `/movealerts` and `/xrayalerts` to watch alerts in chat before enabling auto-kicks. You can also adjust violation thresholds with `/bsac` and reload live without restarting.
Why are my players with high ping getting flagged?
Silent Sentry uses round-trip transaction timing to account for ping automatically, but if players still get caught, lower the movement violation thresholds in your config or add them to the whitelist with `/acwhitelist`.
Can I whitelist a whole group or just individual players?
The `/acwhitelist` command supports both individual players and groups—check your config to define group names, then whitelist by group name to exempt multiple players at once.
