Platform-Specific Permission Systems

Bukkit/Paper Permission System

Permissions work with any permission plugin compatible with Bukkit/Paper, including:

• LuckPerms
• PermissionsEx
• GroupManager

Operators (players with op status) automatically have all permissions.

Velocity Permission System

Permissions work with Velocity's built-in permission system or any compatible permission plugin like:

• LuckPerms for Velocity

Fabric Permission System

Fabric uses the Fabric Permissions API (included with ServerPulse). This is compatible with:

• LuckPerms (when used with the Fabric Permissions API adapter)
• Default server operator system (level 2+)

Permission Examples

LuckPerms Example (works across all platforms)

To give a group access to check status:

/lp group admin permission set serverpulse.status true

To give a specific player reload permission:

/lp user username permission set serverpulse.reload true

Troubleshooting Permissions

If you experience permission issues:

1. Ensure the user has the correct permission node
2. For Fabric servers, make sure Fabric Permissions API is properly loaded
3. Check if your permission plugin is loading correctly
4. Verify the user has the correct permission group assignments
5. For Bukkit/Paper, ensure the plugin is correctly registered in the permission system
