# ShockMOTD

Shock MOTD provides the features you want, without bloat. Simple yet feature packed was the goal, adding tools we all want like automatic centering using `<centered>` tags, Left-side text, and full-bar width hover text. Supporting both **Velocity** and **Paper** servers.

### Features

* Highly configurable & customizable.
* Override player counts & API support for custom player counts.
* Lightweight & fast. Handled on the network level.
* Support for **Velocity** & **Paper**.
* Full-Width hover text bar support.
* Left-margin text support.
* Automatic centering system. No more space padding by hand.
* Does **not require** [SVCommonsLib](https://supremeventures.ca/discord)! But you should still check us out :p

## Color Usage!

The `hover-message` field in the config **ONLY** supports legacy `&` color codes. This is a limitation of the Spigot API. All other message fields \*should\* support MiniMessage `<color>` formats.
{% endhint %}
