Installation

Setting up StarChat on your server is incredibly straightforward but requires specific dependencies depending on your setup.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Download the jar: Purchase and download the latest version of StarChat from BuiltByBit.
  2. Stop your server: Never hot-swap plugins (reloads are okay, but not for initial installation).
  3. Install Dependencies:
    • PlaceholderAPI (Highly Recommended)
    • LuckPerms (Recommended)
    • DiscordSRV (Optional: for Discord bridge sync)
    • Vault (Optional: for Minigames Economy integration)
  4. Upload: Drag the StarChat.jar file into your server\'s /plugins/ directory.
  5. Start: Start your server. StarChat will automatically generate its configuration files.
  6. Verify: Run the command /starchat about in-game to verify it was successfully loaded.

Pterodactyl & Docker Compatibility

If you are running StarChat on a server panel like Pterodactyl, keep in mind that the AI Assistant backend might require outgoing HTTP access to port 61739 if you are running the Nebula Bot on the same machine. No special firewall rules are required for the Minecraft plugin itself as it only makes outgoing requests to the AI bot and Database.
