Challenges allows you to configure over 400 different challenges for your players to complete. Players will be notified through chat when they complete each stage of a challenge, and they'll be able to claim rewards for completed stages at any time through the GUI. This plugin also allows you to customise just about anything!
Every feature is tested before being released, but if you still run into issues you can message me privately here. Do not report issues in the review section, you will be redirected and ignored until you use the proper support routes!

First time downloading?
This plugin uses vanilla statistics to track challenge progress, so any statistics that were incremented before installing the plugin will be used for challenge progress. To reset all statistics, delete the folder named "stats" in your main world folder.
Additionally, this plugin collects some data using bStats. You can read more about it at https://bstats.org/getting-started.

- check-for-updates Determines whether or not the plugin should check if a new version is available. This will not automatically download updates.
- increment-checker-frequency Determines how often (in milliseconds) the plugin should check for player challenge progression. Increasing this value may improve performance, specifically on servers with more players and/or using more challenges.
- executor-max-pool-size Determines how many threads the plugin's executor can use simultaneously. The executor is used for loading/saving player data. Limiting this value may improve performance on smaller servers.
All placeholders only work in the values they are demonstrated in
- %challenge Replaced by the name of a challenge
- %stage Replaced by the player's stage for a challenge except in the GUI when at the maximum stage, in which case replaced by value at challenge-complete
- %progress Replaced by a player's progression for a challenge
- %reward Replaced by a reward (claimed or unclaimed) for a challenge
- title Appears at the top of the GUI
- challenge-title Appears at the top of each challenge
- challenge-complete Appears in place of a stage when the player i at the maximum stage
- challenge-progress Appears under each challenge
- title Appears under any challenge that has rewards when the player is not at the maximum stage
- unclaimed-title Appears under any challenge that the player has earned rewards for but has not claimed
- reward Appears under either rewards-title or unclaimed-rewards-title for each reward
- progress-loaded Appears when a player's challenge progression has been loaded
- progress-not-loaded Appears when a player attempts to open the GUI when their progression hasn't been loaded
- stage-complete Appears only in a player's chat when they complete a challenge stage
- rewards-claimed Appears only in a player's chat when they claim rewards

Spoiler: Configuring challenges
This plugin will attempt to read any yml file (excluding config.yml) inside of the "Challenges" folder as a challenge group. To create a new group, simply create a new yml file in this folder and configure it using the examples and guide below.
Examples
Two example group configurations will be created if the plugin doesn't find any existing group configurations. These are only intended to be used as examples to help you configure challenge groups, so they probably won't be a good fit for a public server.
Notes
Command rewards - cmd=<command_line>,[gui_preview]
Item names - name=<item_name>
Code (YAML):
name
: '&rGroup Name'
item : <item>
challenges:
challenge_id:
name : '&rChallenge Name'
item : <item>
stages :
- <requirement> [reward ]
challenge_id-[sub_challenge]:
name : '&rAnother Challenge Name'
item : <item>
stages :
- <requirement> [reward ] [reward ]
item : <item>
challenges:
challenge_id:
name : '&rChallenge Name'
item : <item>
stages :
- <requirement> [reward ]
challenge_id-[sub_challenge]:
name : '&rAnother Challenge Name'
item : <item>
stages :
- <requirement> [reward ] [reward ]
Examples
Two example group configurations will be created if the plugin doesn't find any existing group configurations. These are only intended to be used as examples to help you configure challenge groups, so they probably won't be a good fit for a public server.
