Nametag Indicators
ConsentPVP can display a small visual indicator above players' heads to reflect their current PvP status. Indicators are optional and fully configurable, and they update when consent changes or when the configuration is reloaded.
Configuration
indicators:
# If true, a visual indicator will be shown above player's heads indicating their PVP status.
enabled: true
# If true, the plugin will force its own indicators even if it overwrites name tags from other plugins.
force: false
# The prefix shown for players with PVP enabled.
pvp-enabled-prefix: "<green>⚔ </green>"
# The prefix shown for players with PVP disabled.
pvp-disabled-prefix: "<red>⚔ </red>"
| Key | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
indicators.enabled | true | Turns PvP nametag indicators on or off. |
indicators.force | false | If true, ConsentPVP forces its own indicators even if doing so overwrites nametags set by other plugins. |
indicators.pvp-enabled-prefix | <green>⚔ </green> | The prefix shown for players with PvP enabled. |
indicators.pvp-disabled-prefix | <red>⚔ </red> | The prefix shown for players with PvP disabled. |
The prefixes use MiniMessage formatting, so you can change the colours or symbol to suit your server's style.
Conflicts with Other Plugins
Nametag indicators may conflict with scoreboard, team, tab-list, or other nametag plugins, since several plugins compete to control how a player's name is displayed.
- Leave
indicators.force: falseto play nicely with other nametag plugins (ConsentPVP yields to them). - Set
indicators.force: trueto make ConsentPVP assert its own indicators even when another plugin also modifies nametags — at the cost of potentially overwriting that plugin's display.
tip
If you run a dedicated nametag/scoreboard plugin and see flickering or overwritten tags, either set indicators.enabled: false or avoid indicators.force: true. See Troubleshooting.
