Verify before the proxy starts.

Run the checksum from the directory holding both jars and the checksum file. A mismatch is not a release; download it again.

Before first boot.

Pick the matching fork

Velocity uses the Velocity jar; BungeeCord uses the BungeeCord jar. They are not interchangeable.

Back up the proxy directory

Start from a known-good configuration and a copy of the existing proxy directory.

Run it in a fresh directory

The jar creates leviathan.yml and leviathan/ beside itself.

Tune against your real joins

Read the status line, then adjust the trigger and challenge windows. Do not copy a preset blindly.

Need the managed layer?

Premium keeps the same protection engine and adds the Spiky entitlement, fleet heartbeat, kill/restore, and AbyssLink. US$5 per license, requested through the studio.

No instant checkoutLicense requests are handled by the studio, not a self-serve payment page. A Premium license is issued after the deployment is confirmed. The Free Trial needs no request at all.
