LAN Broadcast

Pumpkin can broadcast server announcements on the local network so LAN clients can easily discover and join the server.

Configuration

pumpkin.toml

[networking.lan_broadcast]
enabled = false
# motd = "My Custom LAN Server"
# port = 25565

Configuration Options

• enabled: Enables or disables broadcasting server presence on the local network (default: false).
• motd: (Optional) Custom one-line Message of the Day shown in LAN client discovery. If omitted, defaults to the server's Java MOTD with newlines removed.
• port: (Optional) Port advertised in the LAN broadcast. Useful for port forwarding or predictable ports in containerized environments like Docker.
