The AFK module allows a user to mark themselves as “away from keyboard”. This can be a manual process, or an automatic process after an admin defined number of seconds.
There are two entries in the main.conf file in the afk section:
afktime: time in seconds that a player is inactive before the player automatically gets marked as AFK. Defaults to 300 seconds. Set to 0 to disable.afktimetokick: time in seconds that a player is inactive before the player automatically gets kicked. Defaults to disabled - set to 0 to disable.Nucleus also makes use of permission options to be able to set different limits on different groups. They are:
nucleus.afk.toggletime: the same as afktime in the configuration, but for a specific group.nucleus.afk.kicktime: the same as afktimetokick in the configuration, but for a specific group.Consult your permissions plugin for how to set these, for convenience, the relevant commands for popular plugins are below:
/afkrefreshBecause AFK has the potential to do a lot of permission checks, Nucleus caches player permissions for two minutes at a time. If you change a player’s group
and it affects their AFK permissions, run /afkrefresh. Nucleus will discard the cache and recheck all permissions as needed.
The following are incompatibilities that may occur with this module, along with how to resolve the problem. For the full mod/plugin incompatibility list, see the compatibility page.
