duperFuel
a VIBE CODED minecraft paper plugin that allows you to make tnt dropping flying machines without duping
A small Minecraft Paper server plugin that lets you build TNT-dropping flying machines without relying on a piston duplication exploit.
duperFuel is a small plugin for Paper, a server software used to run Minecraft servers, aimed at players who build flying machines that drop TNT. Normally these kinds of machines rely on a duplication trick using pistons to keep generating TNT, and this plugin is meant to let people make the same kind of flying machine without needing that duplication exploit.
The README is short and personal in tone. The author describes the project as vibe coded, meaning it was built with heavy help from an AI coding tool rather than by someone experienced in Java, and says they are not otherwise a supporter of vibe coding but made an exception for a small personal project like this one. They mention being open to compiling the plugin for other Minecraft versions if asked, though the current build targets version 26.2, and admit they do not know Java themselves and expect an AI assistant would be needed to figure out any changes.
To use it, you add the plugin file into your server's plugins folder like any other Paper plugin, then open the server configuration file paper-global.yml and set the allow-piston-duplication option to true. There is a linked video demonstrating the flying machine working. Beyond this short description, the README does not include build instructions, source code details, or license information.
Where it fits
- Build a TNT-dropping flying machine in Minecraft without needing a duplication exploit.
- Add the plugin to a Paper server and enable the piston duplication server setting.
- Watch the linked demo video to see the flying machine in action before installing.
