Quick setup

First run

Suki can be used as a drop-in replacement for Mirai, Pufferfish or Paper: Suki supports all their features and configuration options.

Without configuring anything, the following will be different:

• Chunk packets are interweaved with non-chunk packets.
• Plugins can no longer set a per-player view distance. (This is replaced with Suki's automatic per-player view distance.)

All other features are disabled by default. Upon running, the configuration files config/suki-global.yml and config/suki-world-defaults.yml will be generated. Please see Features for an explanation of each configuration option.

First things to configure
