The Towers [1.8.8-26.2]
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.8–1.12. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on SpigotThe Towers brings back a cult classic mini-game from French servers: each team has its own tower, and at the top of each tower is a base that allows you to score points. Jump into the enemy base to score a point, the first team to reach the target score wins the game!
In between, you’ll have to fight, build bridges, gather resources from the map, and enchant your gear.

Features
- Scoring points: entering an opposing team's pool earns you one point and sends you back to your base. The objective can be configured per arena (10 points by default).
- 2 to 4 teams (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green), with a customizable number of players per team.
- Maximum duration (40 minutes by default): when time runs out, the team in the lead wins. In case of a tie: sudden death, the next point wins!
- Resource generators: iron, XP bottles, and diamonds regularly spawn on the map. Add your own resource types (gold, emeralds, etc.) in the configuration.
- Unlockable kits: initially, only the default kit is available. The others (Archer, Builder, Miner, Warrior, Enchanter, Tank, etc.) are unlocked by playing: games played, wins, kills, points scored. VIP kit available via permission. All kits are fully configurable.
- Instant respawning at your base with your kit: nobody is ever eliminated.
- Kill streaks: double, triple, quadruple kills, etc., announced to the entire arena.
- Mid-game reconnection: a player who crashes can rejoin and keep their place and equipment. Disconnecting during combat counts as a death.
- Protected areas: bases and pools cannot be broken, and chests are restricted to their respective teams.
- End-of-game summary: top scorer, most kills, and most damage dealt.
- Multi-arena: run as many games simultaneously as you want on the same server.
- Configuration menu: /tt opens a menu to configure everything. Positions and areas can be set directly in-game with a right-click, or two clicks for an area.
- Automatic map regeneration after each game: broken and placed blocks, explosions, liquids, and chest contents are all restored.
- BungeeCord / Velocity: players are sent back to the hub at the end of a game, with an arena mode available (1 server = 1 game, players automatically join the game when they connect).
- Connection signs updated in real time (game status, player count), including a random sign.
- Statistics stored locally (YAML) or using MySQL / MariaDB, with an ELO ranking and /tt top.
- Daily quests, an in-game scoreboard, and an early start vote in the waiting lobby.
- PlaceholderAPI support (optional) and Discord announcements via webhook.
- French and English support, with all messages fully customizable.
- No required dependencies.
