LuckPerms - Managing Permissions on a Minecraft Server

What Is a Permission System

The permission system in LuckPerms defines what actions a player is allowed to perform. For example, you can:

• Allow or block the use of specific commands

• Assign different access levels for players, moderators, and admins

• Set custom privileges for mini-games or specific players

All of this is done through groups and permission assignments.

How LuckPerms Works

The main principle of LuckPerms is the "group + permission" structure. First, a group is created (such as "player", "moderator", "admin"), and then permissions are assigned to it. Players are added to groups and receive access accordingly.

Example:

• The default group can only play and chat.

• The moderator group can kick players and see messages from the command chat.

• The admin group has full access.

Each permission is a string that defines a capability. For example, essentials.kick is the permission to kick players using the Essentials plugin.
