    Can TabAPI be used as a global tab list? I am curious because I have seen a server with it and it worked perfectly fine... Thanks

    @About7Deaths You can put the plugin in all the server files, maybe? ;)

    Put TabAPI in each of your server's plugins folders, at least, that's how MC-SG does it.

    But MC-SG isn't using a global tab list? They use a simple overview.

    Ah I must have misunderstood, is this asking how to get all the players connected to the proxy displayed on tab?

    Yup, the idea is planned, but it has some delay..

    But couldn't tab API share information with the other servers to present a technical global tab list? Seems very plausible...

    @About7Deaths it would require the TabAPI plugin to do all of it, not the actual LilyPad server though. Unless someone made a Lily plugin.... ^.^

    So this would work?

    It could, @About7Deaths, however it would require a new plugin to use TabAPI to do this.

    Tab Config already utilizes Tab API and it is made by the same developer.

    Yes, @About7Deaths, but I am not aware of any TabConfig ways to sync across servers, right? Someone would have to create a plugin to sync the players.

    I believe TabConfig has the option to do a Minecraft ping on a specified server (which can be your proxy) and retrieve the players (at least the count) from that.

    Excellent, I will have to do some local testing on this.
