Install on the server only; players don't need it
SAPS
SAPS is a lightweight, strictly server-side Fabric mod designed for server administrators who want to have some harmless fun and prank their players. With simple commands, you can trigger jump-scare sound effects or strike players with beautiful, completely safe lightning.
Since it is 100% Server-Side, your players do not need to install anything! Just drop it into your server's mods folder and start trolling.
Features
- Phantom Sounds: Play terrifying audio cues directly to a specific player. The audio source tracks their coordinates perfectly.
- Cosmetic Lightning: Strike a player with lightning that flashes and thunders but deals zero damage and never sets blocks on fire.
- Smart Tab-Completion: Fully integrated with Minecraft's command suggestions. You don't need to memorize sound names.
- Stealthy & Vanilla-Friendly: Sounds play under the
Hostilecategory, making players believe a real monster is creeping right behind them.
