# Configuring the verification Determines when new players are verified. Options: * `ALWAYS`: All new players are checked (Recommended) * `DURING_ATTACK`: Players are only checked during an attack * `NEVER`: No verification for new players Default: `ALWAYS` ```yaml timing: ALWAYS ``` Sets the gamemode during verification. Options: * `SURVIVAL`: all UI components are visible * `CREATIVE`: all UI components are hidden * `ADVENTURE`: all UI components are visible (Recommended) Default: `ADVENTURE` ```yaml gamemode: ADVENTURE ``` Specifies the username used in the cached LoginSuccess packet. Default: `Sonar` ```yaml cached-username: Sonar ``` Logs all new verification attempts. Default: `true` ```yaml log-connections: true ``` Logs verification attempts only during attacks. Default: `false` ```yaml log-during-attack: false ``` Logs all player movements during verification, useful for debugging. Not recommended for production servers. Default: `false` ```yaml debug-xyz-positions: false ``` Enables verification checks for Geyser (Bedrock) players. This is experimental and may cause issues. Default: `true` ```yaml check-geyser-players: true ``` The time (in milliseconds) before disconnecting a player if they stop sending packets. Default: `8000` ```yaml read-timeout: 8000 ``` The time (in milliseconds) before disconnecting a player if the server stops sending packets. Default: `10000` ```yaml write-timeout: 10000 ``` The cooldown period (in milliseconds) before a player can reconnect during verification. Default: `8000` ```yaml rejoin-delay: 8000 ``` The duration (in milliseconds) for which Sonar remembers the number of failed verifications for a player. Default: `120000` ```yaml remember-time: 120000 ``` The duration (in milliseconds) an IP is blocked after repeated verification failures. Default: `600000` ```yaml blacklist-time: 600000 ``` The number of failed verifications before an IP is blacklisted. Set to `0` to disable blacklisting. Default: `2` ```yaml blacklist-threshold: 2 ``` A list of protocol IDs that are blocked from joining the server. Default: `[]` (empty) ```yaml blacklisted-protocols: [] ``` --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
