Prevents mobs from targeting AFK players.
Essentials AFK status does not protect you from mobs. You can of course enable freeze function, but mobs will still try to attack you: skeletons will shoot arrows, creepers come close and explode.
This plugin changes that. Now, whenever you go AFK, all mobs just lose interest in you. They will still spawn, and wander around you, but won't target or attack you like you don't exist or one of their own.
Note
In 1.19, Warden will still be able to sniff you and will get angry. It, however, won't attack you while you are AFK, instead, it will stay next to you and roar endlessly. This unfortunately cannot be prevented as there no APIs for that, so don't go AFK in places where Warden can spawn :)
Just install alongside the EssentialsX plugin.
The plugin itself is currently not configurable.

All feedback and bug reports are welcome in the GitHub issues.
To cut cost of maintenance only the latest major Minecraft versions are supported (targeted and tested). You may be able to download older versions of the plugin through releases history, but do not expect any of the changes from newer versions to be back-ported.
You are welcome to fork and back-port this plugin to work on older versions; however, no bug reports will be accepted from such builds unless they are reproducible in newer builds.
This project would not exist without the support of Fundy's offline chat community.
