KitChests
KitChests lets you place physical loot chests in your world that act as per-player starter kits or rewards.
Instead of having players type /kit, they just open a chest at spawn. The catch is that the loot is instanced per-player: if Player A empties the chest, it stays fully stocked for Player B who hasn't opened it yet. Each player can only take the items once.
Support
Support is available on my discord server.
Features
- Per-Player Instances: Players can only loot the chest once. Once they take the items, the chest appears empty to them forever, but stays full for everyone else.
- Easy In-Game Setup: No need to configure kits in a file. Just put the items you want into a normal chest, look at it, and type
/kitchest create. - Custom Item Support: It saves exactly what is in the chest, meaning it supports items with custom NBT data from plugins like ItemsAdder or CraftEngine.
- Grief Protection: KitChests cannot be broken or blown up.
Commands & Permissions
/kitchest create- Look at a filled chest and run this to convert it into a KitChest. (Permission:kitchests.admin)/kitchest remove- Look at a KitChest to revert it back to a normal chest and wipe its data. (Permission:kitchests.admin)
