dixon's cool 1v1 datapack

Ever wanted to 1v1 your friends in Minecraft, battle-royale style?

This datapack allows for that! Featuring a built-in grace period, shrinking worldborder and the use of the underrated locator bar, this datapack provides a unique experience where players gather resources prior to fighting rather than traditional kit PvP. With the constantly shrinking border and the danger of revealing your location for even a moment, players have to weigh the benefits of gathering extra resources, or going on the hunt early for the element of surprise.

Setup

This datapack has a fairly simple setup process. When you generate a world, it creates two platforms at the coordinates X: 100, Z: 100 and X: -100, Z: -100. The datapack works by checking for players with the tags: player1 and player2.

Type in:

/tag <player_name> add player1

and

/tag <player_name> add player2

Replace with the names of the players who are participating.

Once you're ready to start, type

/function battle:start

to begin!

Recommendations

It is highly recommended that you use this datapack in a hardcore world to make winning/losing more impactful. In addition, during setup, it is recommended that you use repeating command blocks for the /tag commands to prevent any chance at players getting a headstart or unfair advantage.
