SuperiorSkyblock2 provides a comprehensive configuration system that allows you to customize every aspect of your skyblock server. All configuration files are located in the plugins/SuperiorSkyblock2/ directory.

​
Configuration Files

The plugin uses several YAML configuration files to manage different aspects of the server:

​
Main Configuration Files

config.yml

Main plugin configuration including database settings, island defaults, world settings, and gameplay features

plugin.yml

Plugin metadata and permission node definitions for all commands and features

Schematics

Island schematic files that define the default island layouts players can choose from

Menus

Customizable GUI menus for settings, upgrades, permissions, and more

​
Additional Configuration Files

  • heads.yml - Skull texture mappings for spawner display in menus
  • interactables.yml - Configurable block and entity interactions
  • safe_blocks.yml - Blocks that are safe from protection checks
  • lang/ - Language translation files for multi-language support
  • block-values/ - Block worth and level values for island calculations

Best Practices

Always backup your configuration files before making changes. Invalid YAML syntax can prevent the plugin from loading.
After modifying configuration files, use /is admin reload to apply changes without restarting the server. Some settings may require a full restart.

​
Configuration Tips

  1. Test changes incrementally - Make small changes and test them before proceeding
  2. Use YAML validators - Ensure your YAML syntax is valid before reloading
  3. Keep backups - The plugin automatically backs up the database, but manually backup configs
  4. Read comments - Configuration files include helpful comments explaining each option
  5. Check compatibility - Some settings require specific Minecraft versions (1.12, 1.13+, 1.16+, etc.)

​
Version-Specific Configurations

Many configuration files have version-specific variants:
  • 1_12.yml - Minecraft 1.12 and earlier
  • 1_13.yml - Minecraft 1.13-1.15
  • 1_16.yml - Minecraft 1.16-1.19
  • 1_20.yml - Minecraft 1.20+
  • 1_21.yml - Minecraft 1.21+
The plugin automatically loads the correct version based on your server.

​
Modules Configuration

SuperiorSkyblock2 supports modular features that can be configured independently:

Missions

Configure island missions and challenges for players to complete

Upgrades

Define island upgrade tiers and their costs/benefits
