RetroBridge

RetroBridge is a compatibility bridge plugin for Project Poseidon servers.

It provides a stable abstraction layer for common server features and selects an active provider based on what plugins are installed and how the server is configured.

Current modules:

• economy
• permissions
• auth
• whois
• vanish
• fakequit

How It Works

RetroBridge registers providers for each module and selects one active provider per module.

Selection rules:

1. If preferred-provider.value is set to a specific provider name, RetroBridge tries that provider first.
2. If preferred-provider.value is AUTO, RetroBridge uses the first available provider in registration order.
3. If a specific preferred provider is unavailable and allow-fallback.value is true, RetroBridge falls back to the first other available provider.
4. If a specific preferred provider is unavailable and allow-fallback.value is false, the module has no active provider.

Provider availability is determined by whether the backing plugin is enabled.

Command

• /retrobridge - The command shows the active provider for each module, including the owner plugin and whether the active provider was registered as BUILTIN or RUNTIME.

Notes

• Dummy providers are intentional fallbacks for modules with no real active integration.
• Some bridges depend on online players for certain operations.
