This is an odd issue that just started. So I setup a server last week using crafty controller and paper mc, only a couple of plugins are loaded, installed using PluginPortal

- ChestSort (14.2.0), DatapackLoader (1.4.1), Images (2.5.3), PluginPortal (2.2.0), TreeFella (1.2), Veinminer (2.2.2)

To start with everything worked just fine no issues at all. Suddenly, everyone that joins how joins half in a block, like if you dug out 1 square and stood in the bottom of it. The real issue is that even though you can jump out of the block you can't actually do anything. You can't break any blocks anywhere, if you step on a pressure plate it doesn't register that you're there.

The only fix is /tp player1 player1 (tp to yourself) and then you're good to go.

I can't for the life of me understand what is causing this or how to fix it. I would love some ideas on what it is.

In the attached images you can see what I mean. I spawn in a hole, I jumped out of the hole and I'm standing on a pressure plate with no reaction. After I tp to myself I can now operate the pressure plate and break things.

Server specs to avoid the usual "add more RAM" kinda things
  • CPU AMD 7950x3d
  • RAM 128GB
  • Mirrored 2TB - PCIe 5.0 NVMe drives
  • Dedicated hosted server on a gigabit connection
 
Version Output
This server is running Paper version 1.21.4-126-main@fb5b173 (2025-01-25T20:51:32Z) (Implementing API version 1.21.4-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)
You are running the latest version
Previous version: 1.21.4-118-73f7736 (MC: 1.21.4)

The only guess is going to be that you need to reset your spawn position using the command, or, see if when it rains water falls into the room, if it does, that would indicate that your worlds heightmaps are busted and that you'll need to look into rebuilding that information

I've reset the spawn point a couple of times. I've even built a couple of blocks up and set the spawn up up on 2 blocks. Same thing.

I didn't find much about fixing "worlds heightmaps" mostly it was corrupt and unplayable worlds but this one plays fine except when you first connect.

Any other tips?
