A fork of many GitHub plugins for BeamMP with a touch of me and easy installation
This guide will walk through the most basic process of installing STCH Pack onto a BeamMP Server and setting yourself as the owner
This assumes you have successfully set up your own BeamMP Server, there is a guide here

Server Management by SteliosLL
This small program will help you edit your server’s settings quick and easy, like the server name, description, port, auth key etc. One of the biggest features is that it makes changing maps very quick and easy. Simply select the one you like and save the settings! It also supports custom maps! You aren’t limited to the default beamng maps. It also has other useful features like mod and plugin management, server start-stop, restart timer etc.

- Most notable improvements are New Addition of database, so you may work with all players that have ever been on your server.
- Environment sync has been overhauled, this includes sun, weather, gravity, temperature, with clearer info for you to know if you're controlling this for everyone, and allowing them perhaps to not be locked out of making changes on their end when you turn environment sync off.
- Teleportation timeout and sim speed control have been moved to an extras section in config.
- New, Global Restrictions sections that houses reset blocking for now and will have more input filtering added later.
