Server Configuration

Paper Version

PaperChunk uses Paper, a high-performance fork of Spigot. You can change the Paper version from the server dashboard:

1. Go to your server page
2. In the Paper JAR section, select the desired Minecraft version
3. Click Download to install it
4. Restart the server

Important: Changing Minecraft versions may break existing plugins. Always check plugin compatibility before upgrading.
