Overview
Disabling exploit fixes on a Minecraft Paper server involves adjusting settings that do not receive official support or maintenance from the PaperMC development team. While PaperMC indeed provides performance enhancements for Minecraft servers, it is worth noting that exploit fixes predominantly address issues such as unbreakable block exploits, TNT duplication, and exceeding item stacking limits. Turning off these exploit settings may cause various problems, including server instability, conflicts, and other complications.
Note: The settings are only available for Minecraft Paper version 1.16 and above.
