SpaceVulcan

SpaceVulcan completely changes how your server handles cheaters.
Instead of instantly banning players for a single violation, SpaceVulcan works alongside Vulcan’s kick system to create a multi-tier strike system.

⚠️ Requirements

• Vulcan Anti-Cheat (Premium Resource)
• Java 17 or newer
• Purpur / Paper 1.16 – 1.21+

⚡ The Problem
Standard anti-cheats often punish players immediately.

• If Vulcan is configured to only Kick — players can simply rejoin and continue cheating
• If Vulcan is configured to Ban — false bans may occur due to lag

✅ The Solution
SpaceVulcan solves this problem.
The plugin tracks how many times Vulcan has already punished a player (for example, via kicks).

• 1 kick? → Just a warning / disconnect
• Multiple kicks in a short time? → SpaceVulcan detects the pattern and executes a ban

⚙️ How It Works

1. Vulcan Action
   Vulcan detects a violation and executes a Kick
2. Tracking
   SpaceVulcan listens to the event and records a strike
3. Escalation
   If a player continues to receive kicks and exceeds the configured limits — SpaceVulcan executes a ban
