Phantom Vanish v1.0

Most vanish plugins are barebones - a toggle and nothing else. Staff members vanish but still take damage, trigger pressure plates, or accidentally interact with containers. Players see join/quit spam from moderators. There is no polish, no feedback, and no control.

Phantom Vanish changes that. When you vanish, you become a true ghost. You are packet-level invisible. Mobs ignore you. Containers open silently. Pressure plates do not click. Death messages are suppressed. Damage and hunger are frozen. And you get a clean, purple-themed HUD that tells you exactly what state you are in - all configurable, all instantaneous, all without a server restart.



◆ Complete Ghost Mode

• Packet-level invisibility via ProtocolLib - vanished players do not appear in tab lists, player counts, or world rendering
• One command: /vanish (alias /v). Toggle yourself or another player instantly
• Boss bar indicator while vanished keeps you aware of your hidden state
• Action bar and title notifications confirm every state change

◆ Full Protection Suite

• No damage taken while vanished
• Hunger depletion frozen
• Mob targeting disabled - creepers, skeletons, and zombies ignore you
• Death messages suppressed
• Entity collision disabled
• Item pickup blocked
• Pressure plates do not activate

◆ Silent Containers

• Chests, ender chests, shulkers, and barrels open without sound or animation
• Nearby players hear nothing - you leave zero trace
• Each container type individually toggleable in config.yml

◆ Sound Browser GUI

• Interactive paginated inventory to browse and select any Minecraft sound
• Left-click to preview a sound, right-click to select it
• Currently selected sound is highlighted in the menu
• Opened via /vanish sound (no arguments)

◆ Per-Player Settings

• Individual sound preferences - pick from a sound browser GUI with preview
• Flight toggle per player while vanished
• Silent join mode - join the server already hidden, no broadcast
• Night vision perk while in ghost mode
• Settings persist across sessions

◆ Staff Utilities

• Teleport to any player while vanished - /vanish tp <player>
• Fake join and quit messages - /vanish join and /vanish quit
• List all vanished players - /vanish list with count summary
• Auto-vanish on join for staff members - phantom.autovanish permission
• See vanished players with phantom.see permission

All integrations are optional. Phantom Vanish works perfectly without any of them.















Phantom Vanish ships with 5 languages out of the box. Every message - from vanish toggles to help menus to GUI titles - is translated and stored in a clean YAML file. Switching languages is a single line in config.yml, no restarts required.

• Server Administrators Full protection suite means your staff can moderate without worrying about accidental damage, mob aggro, or container noise. Everything is toggleable in a single config file.
• PvP & Faction Servers Staff can spectate fights completely undetected. No tab-list leaks, no player-count discrepancies, no death messages giving them away.
• Survival & SMP Servers Moderators can investigate griefing reports silently. Silent containers mean they can check chest logs without the thief knowing they were watched.
• Network Owners Drop Phantom Vanish into any Paper 1.21+ game mode. No dependencies required. One jar, one command, ready to go.
• Plugin Developers The GhostAPI lets you integrate vanish states into your own plugins. Build custom staff modes, anti-cheat integrations, or rank-based visibility systems.
