Overview
BungeeCord is a popular plugin for Minecraft servers that allows players to connect to multiple server instances seamlessly. It acts as a proxy, enabling players to join different game worlds or servers without disconnecting and reconnecting manually. BungeeCord efficiently distributes incoming player connections across the available server instances, creating a smoother, more scalable multiplayer experience.
Note: Make a backup of existing saves on the server.
Note: BungeeCord requires a minimum of three servers. One server will run BungeeCord, while two or more servers will be connected to the network.
Note: These are example servers for this guide.
The game servers are running Spigot for 1.19.4.
