A tool to stress test Minecraft servers by simulating numerous bot connections, helping identify performance bottlenecks and stability issues.

How to Run

1. Disable Online Mode & Encryption: Ensure that online-mode=false in your server's server.properties file. This is crucial for Botmark to connect as it simulates offline-mode clients. (Warning: only do this in a test environment).

2. Run Botmark: Use the following command in your terminal, adjusting the arguments as needed:

   ./botmark --ip <ip:port> --count <bot-count> [OPTIONS]

Command-Line Arguments

Here's a detailed breakdown of all available command-line arguments:

• --ip <ip:port> (Required):

  • The IP address and port of the Minecraft server to stress test.
  • Example: 127.0.0.1:25565 or example.com:25565

• -c, --count <bot-count> (Optional, Default: 1):

  • The number of bots to simulate connecting to the server.
  • Example: --count 50

• -d, --delay <delay> (Optional, Default: 200):

  • The delay (in milliseconds) between each bot connection.
  • Example: --delay 100 (100 milliseconds delay)

• --spam_message "<message>" (Optional):

  • Will send a Chat message with the specefied spam_message_delay.
  • Example: --spam_message "Hello, I'm a Robot"

• --spam_message_delay <delay> (Optional, Default: 210):

  • The delay (in milliseconds) between spam message.
  • Example: --spam_message_delay 100 (100 milliseconds delay)
