Frequently asked questions

Minecraft Vanilla servers are the regular Minecraft game without any additions. Minecraft Bukkit/Spigot servers are the Minecraft game but include the ability to install Minecraft plugins that add new features and twists to your server.

Minecraft Bukkit/Spigot does not support setting a server password, however, you are able to whitelist the server within your server settings. Once the whitelist is enabled, only players that are whitelisted will be able to join. Players can be whitelisted in the “Live Server Console” with the command “whitelist add USER”.

You are able to install any Minecraft plugins that are up-to-date for your Minecraft server version including your own plugins. You can check a Minecraft plugin’s page to see what versions of Minecraft Bukkit/Spigot that plugin will work for.

Yes, at Nitrado you can get a modded Minecraft server. In the Nitrado server order search, you can get a variety of modded Minecraft servers with modpacks for Minecraft Curse Launcher, Minecraft ATLauncher, and more. You can also use the “Switch Game” option on your server webinterface to change the server to modded Minecraft.

All of the latest Minecraft Bukkit/Spigot updates are supported on your server. You can switch between every released version of Minecraft if you prefer older versions.

To make a Minecraft Bukkit/Spigot server private, you can enable the whitelist option in your server’s settings. Once activated, players can be added to the whitelist and only those players will be able to join the server.

The modifications Bukkit and Spigot for the successful game Minecraft offer the players the possibility to add extensions, so-called plugins, to the server in order to modify the game.
These modifications are also available on the Minecraft Bukkit servers from Nitrado.

The areas of application are very diverse and range from the rights management of the players, various options for changing the world to independent game modes.
These areas of application are almost endless and thus enable a unique gaming experience.

After installing Minecraft Bukkit / Spigot, a selection of the most frequently used plugins is offered for direct installation on the game servers of Nitrado.
These allow a first glimpse into the modification of the game.
If these are no longer sufficient, there is also the option to load additional plugins to the server via FTP access.

Strictly speaking, the Bukkit modification is a programming interface that enables developers to create and integrate their own plugins.
The modification, which is imported on the servers, is called CraftBukkit and has to be adapted for all versions.
An alternative is the modification Spigot.
This is an optimized version of CraftBukkit, which also allows the implementation of plugins.

Minecraft Bukkit began in September 2010 with the development of a modification called hMod by developer hey and other programmers.
This mod served to improve Minecraft Server with additional functions and features.
 This laid the foundation stone for a possibility of server modification.

However, after 2 months, the beta phase of a new modification, today's Bukkit or CraftBukkit, began.
This was created by previous hMod developers, including the programmers Dinnerbone and Grum.
These were then also employed by Mojang.

The new development led to controversy in the community.
For example, the new Bukkit modification saw the theft of the hMod.
The further development of the hMod has not continued since January 5, 2011.
This measure suddenly made Bukkit the most popular server mod and successor to the well-known hMod. Rent your Minecraft Bukkit Server now!
