Tunnel Rats

Xisuma has released an official version of his Tunnel Rats game here. Go check that out instead!

A recreation of the Tunnel Rats game by Xisuma on the Hermitcraft server. Create custom tunnels with ease and play with your friends in 2 or 4 teams modes!

How to Setup

This plugin requires Java 21+. Please ensure enable-command-block in server.properties is set to true.

Download the plugin from the Versions tab. This plugin requires WorldEdit to function, so download the correct version of WorldEdit as specified. Upon server startup, a world.zip file will be created in the server's root directory. Unzip the file and replace the default world folder with the file. The plugin must be used together with that specific world.

Features

/tunnel <name> - Generates the specified tunnel. Omit <name> to list all tunnels.
/start - Starts the game.
/savemiddle <name> - Teleports the player to the correct postion to save the middle schematic file.
/mode - Switch between 2 and 4 teams mode.

You will need OP permissions to run these commands.

Creating custom tunnels

The data for each tunnel is stored in YAML files inside the folder plugins/TunnelRats/tunnels/. Custom tunnels can be created by adding new YAML files that follow the tunnel template. A detailed explanation of the tunnel template can be found in the README files inside the plugins/TunnelRats/ folder.
