Battlegrounds is a plugin i've designed to replicate the experience from PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, a popular king-of-the-hill arena survival game which has been dominating the market. The plugin provides core features which can be used to host your own arena survival experience!
Features:
- Multiple arenas and concurrent matches.
- Tracking of vital statistics such as kills, deaths, wins, losses, and Elo rating.
- Multi-round matches with a shrinking arena border - just like in PUBG.
- Requires WorldEdit , WorldBorder , and Vault .
- Requires Spigot 1.12+.
This plugin is relatively easy to install.
- Download the most recent JAR.
- Place the JAR into the /plugins/ folder of your server directory.
- Restart or reload the server.
Minecraft Battlegrounds is designed so that you never have to edit configuration files. Configuration is done entirely with commands, using the /bg config command (restricted to operators and players with permission).
You do not need to reload the plugin once you change settings in /bg config.
