 At this time, there is no way to run Floodgate on servers that mix Forge and Bukkit or Fabric and Bukkit (For example: Magma, Mohist, and Cardboard/Bukkit4Fabric) - most hybrids do not support the complicated procedures we need to do in order to allow Bedrock players to connect (for the technically minded: these server softwares typically don't support NMS). 
 
 If you wish to use Floodgate in combination with hybrid servers, we recommend putting these servers behind a BungeeCord or Velocity proxy, and running Floodgate on the proxy.
