Minecraft AFK Bot

A simple Minecraft AFK bot built with JavaScript and Mineflayer that helps prevent players from being kicked from servers due to inactivity by simulating basic movements.

About the Project

This is our first open-source project, and it was created as a learning experience while exploring JavaScript and Minecraft automation.

We often got disconnected from Minecraft servers for being AFK (Away From Keyboard), so We decided to build a bot that performs simple actions to keep the player active.

Features

• Prevents AFK kicks by generating movement actions.
• Lightweight and easy to set up.
• Built using the Mineflayer framework.
• Great beginner-friendly project for learning Minecraft bot development.

Built With

• JavaScript
• Mineflayer
• Node.js

Supported Versions

Currently supports Minecraft versions up to 1.16.4.

Future updates may include support for newer Minecraft versions.

Prerequisites

Before running the bot, ensure you have:

• Node.js installed
• Minecraft Java Edition
• Access to a Minecraft server

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone <repository-url>
cd minecraft-bot

2. Install dependencies:

npm install

3. Configure the server details:

Update the server IP address and port in the configuration file with your Minecraft server information.

4. Start the bot:

npm run dev

Usage

Once the bot joins the server, it will perform automated movements to help prevent AFK disconnections.

Future Improvements

• Support for the latest Minecraft versions
• Additional movement patterns
• Better configuration options
• Customizable AFK behavior
