Player Utilities

EssentialsLite provides everyday player commands. A command marked with a configuration gate is available only when that section is enabled in plugins/EssentialsLite/config.yml; most utility gates ship enabled (enabled: true).

Movement and Status

Command Example Permission Gate
/fly /fly No separate node listed --
/gamemode /gamemode creative No separate node listed --
/heal /heal No separate node listed --
/feed /feed No separate node listed --
/god /god No separate node listed --
/top /top No separate node listed --
/suicide /suicide essentials.suicide --
/speed /speed 1 No separate node listed --

Aliases include /efly, /egamemode, /eheal, /efeed, /egod, /etop, and /espeed. /speed is also exposed as /walkspeed and /flyspeed.

essentials.fly.safelogin is the separate administrative node for restoring persisted fly mode on login; it does not grant the normal fly command.

Information and Inventory

Command Example Permission Notes
/near /near 50 essentials.near Own view; essentials.near.others, .radius, and .hide are the additional ledger nodes.
/playtime /playtime essentials.playtime Own playtime; essentials.playtime.others checks another player.
/invsee /invsee Alex essentials.invsee View another player's inventory.
/enderchest /enderchest No separate node listed Gate: enderchest.enabled. Aliases: /ec, /echest.
/exp /exp give 10 essentials.exp Own experience; subnodes .others, .set, .give, .take, .reset control the corresponding operations.

/near also accepts /near [player] [radius]; custom radius requires essentials.near.radius. /playtime accepts /playtime [player].

Configuration

Use the shipped configuration keys. The documented utility gate is enderchest.enabled; do not create parallel keys for commands whose gate is --. Permission wildcards such as essentials.near.*, essentials.playtime.*, and essentials.exp.* are convenience families, not replacements for least-privilege nodes.
