A paper plugin for a long-term building competition in Minecraft.
Existing solutions for a building competition style server involve short "build battle" games that repeat over and over again. I needed to set up a server where participants have a week or more to log in and make their build before they're later judged. This plugin makes it easier to set up a longer-term building competition server.
Once configured, the plugin allows players to create a plot with /bc buildplot, and later return to it using the same command. WorldGuard regions are automatically created so that players are only able to build in their own plot. When setting up the plugin, the buildable area can be specified, so that players can't damage the walls of their plot.
Requires FastAsyncWorldEdit for pasting plot schematics, and WorldGuard for setting up plot protections. Multiverse is recommended for creating a designated plot world.
Features
- Create a plot for a player upon running a command, tiled in a plot world next to other plots, and automatically teleport them there
- Don't let players damage plots outside of their own
- Define a buildable area, so that players can't damage the walls of their plot
- Send the player back to their existing plot if it was already created
- Dev mode for testing
Usage
See the README for detailed set up instructions.
- Install this plugin,
FastAsyncWorldEdit, andWorldGuardto your server. - Create a plot schematic and save it to disk using FAWE.
- Place that
.schemfile into the plugin's configuration folder, and specify some options in theconfig.ymlfile. - Then, players can run
/bc buildplotto generate their plots. This command can be run from other places too, like when a user enters a Multiverse portal.
