🔎 Summary

No mods required.

📖 Description

The Simple Freeze Datapack gives you instant control over player movement on your server.
Perfect for events, minigames, announcements, roleplay, or admin control, this datapack lets you stop all players in place with a single function call.

It uses only built-in vanilla commands, making it version-independent, modloader-independent, and extremely lightweight.

Zero Lag

🧊 Freeze Players

Use the main freeze function:

/function simple_freeze:freeze

This applies powerful movement-blocking effects to all players:

  • Slowness 255 – completely disables walking
  • Jump Boost 250 – prevents jumping
  • Mining Fatigue 255 – blocks breaking and interacting

Players remain online and visible — but fully immobilized.

🔥 Unfreeze Players

Restore normal gameplay instantly:

/function simple_freeeze:unfreeze

This removes all relevant effects and returns players to normal movement.
