PvPArea
A Minecraft Paper server plugin that enables keepInventory and keepLevel within designated PvP areas.
What's new in version 1.1.0:
- Added support for multiple worlds! PvP areas can now be added to any world on your server and are stored in the respective
PersistentDataContainer. - Added backwards compatibility: this plugin is now officially supported for all stable Paper builds built for versions
1.21.11through26.2of Minecraft. - Increased performance significantly, especially for servers with many areas or players.
- Added
AreaChunkKey, containing aWorldand the chunk coordinates packed into along. Coordinates will be checked to see if the death occurred in a PvP area only if theAreaChunkKeyof the chunk the player has died in is present in the plugin'sMapof areas.
- Added
Requirements:
Server must have Paper installed.
Features:
- Commands:
/pvparea list: available to all players - lists all active PvP areas/pvparea clear-all: operator required - removes all active areas/pvparea add <x-min> <x-max> <z-min> <z-max> <world>: operator required - adds an area with the given bounds (inclusive) in the given world
- When players die within a PvP area, they respawn at their normal respawn point, retaining all inventory items and experience.
- No inventory items or experience are dropped upon death within a PvP area.
- Players are notified that they died within an area and that keepInventory and keepLevel were enabled.
Limitations:
- No current functionality for removing a single area from the list of active areas because of the way areas are saved as a single array of integers in the
PersistentDataContainer.- A future update might change the way these integers are saved so that a single area can more easily be removed from the list.
