MiniGames

This plugin adds several mini-games. To create a dropper arena, simply use /droppercreate <name>, where <name> is simply the name used to differentiate and recognize the arena. Your location will be used as the spawn location for anyone joining the dropper arena. To start playing, simply use /dropperjoin <name>, where <name> is the same as you specified upon creation. To modify the arena, use /dropperedit <name> <property> <value>.

Permissions

The only permission normal players will need is minigames.join which is set to true by default.

Command explanation

/dropperJoin

This command is used for joining a dropper arena.

/dropperjoin <arena> [mode]

Argument Usage
arena The name of the arena to join.
mode Additional challenge modes can be played after an arena has been cleared once. Available modes: inverted and random.

/dropperEdit

This command allows editing the specified property for the specified dropper arena.

/dropperedit <arena> <option> [value]

Argument Usage
arena The name of the arena to edit.
option The option to display or change.
value The new value of the selected option.

These are all the options that can be changed for an arena.

Option Details
name The name of the arena. Used mainly to select the arena in commands.
spawnLocation The spawn location of any player joining the arena. Use 56.546,64.0,44.45 to specify coordinates, or here, this or any other string to select your current location.
exitLocation The location players will be sent to when exiting the arena. If not set, the player will be sent to where they joined from. Valid values are the same as for spawnLocation.
verticalVelocity The vertical velocity set for players in the arena (basically their falling speed). It must be greater than 0, but max 75. 12.565 and other decimals are allowed.
horizontalVelocity The horizontal velocity (technically fly speed) set for players in the arena. It must be between 0 and 1, and cannot be 0. Decimals are allowed.
winBlockType The type of block players must hit to win the arena. It can be any material as long as it's a block, and not a type of air.

/dropperGroupSet

This command is used to set the group of an arena

/droppergroupset <arena> <group>

Dropper groups are created and removed as necessary. If you specify a group named "potato", that group is created, and will be used again if you specify the "potato" group for another arena. You use "none" or "null" to remove an arena from its group. If the group has no arenas, it will be automatically removed. If the arena already is in a group, it will be moved to the new group.

/dropperGroupSwap

This command is used for changing the order of arenas within a group.

/droppergroupswap <arena1> <arena2>

Groups define an order the arenas within that group has to be completed in. Use /droppergrouplist group to see the actual order of the group. So, assuming your arenas in the group looked something like:

  1. Forest
  2. Sea
  3. Nether
  4. Savanna

You could use /droppergroupswap Sea Savanna to change the order to:

  1. Forest
  2. Savanna
  3. Nether
  4. Sea

Configuration options

Shared

Name Type Default Description
liquidHitBoxDepth -1 < decimal < 0 -0.8 This decides how far inside a non-solid block the player must go before detection triggers (-1, 0). The closer to -1 it is, the more accurate it will seem to the player, but the likelihood of not detecting the hit increases.
solidHitBoxDistance 0 < decimal < 1 0.2 This decides the distance the player must be from a block below them before a hit triggers (0, 1). If too low, the likelihood of detecting the hit decreases, but it won't look like the player hit the block without being near.

Dropper

Name Type Default Description
blockSneaking true/false true Whether to block using the shift key to drop faster than the intended drop speed
blockSprinting true/false true Whether to block using the sprint key for slightly improved air speed
verticalVelocity 0 < decimal <= 75 1.0 The vertical velocity used as default for all arenas. Must be greater than 0. 3.92 is the max speed of a falling player.
horizontalVelocity 0 < decimal <= 1 1.0 The horizontal velocity used as default for all arenas (technically fly-speed). Must be between 0 (exclusive) and 1 (inclusive).
randomlyInvertedTimer 0 < integer <= 3600 7 The number of seconds before the randomly inverted game-mode switches between normal and inverted movement (0, 3600]
mustDoGroupedInSequence true/false true Whether grouped dropper arenas must be played in the correct sequence
ignoreRecordsUntilGroupBeatenOnce true/false false Whether records won't be registered unless the player has already beaten all arenas in a group. That means players are required to do a second play-through to register a record for a grouped arena.
mustDoNormalModeFirst true/false true Whether a player must do the normal/default game-mode before playing any other game-modes
makePlayersInvisible true/false false Whether players should be made invisible while playing in a dropper arena
disableHitCollision true/false true Whether players should have their entity hit collision disabled while in an arena. This prevents players from pushing each-other if in the same arena.
liquidHitBoxDepth -1 < decimal < 0 -0.8 This decides how far inside a non-solid block the player must go before detection triggers (-1, 0). The closer to -1 it is, the more accurate it will seem to the player, but the likelihood of not detecting the hit increases.
solidHitBoxDistance 0 < decimal < 1 0.2 This decides the distance the player must be from a block below them before a hit triggers (0, 1). If too low, the likelihood of detecting the hit decreases, but it won't look like the player hit the block without being near.
blockWhitelist list see this A whitelist for which blocks won't trigger a loss when hit/passed through. The win block check happens before the loss check, so even blocks on the whitelist can be used as the win-block. "+" denotes a material tag.

Parkour

Name Type Default Description
enforceCheckpointOrder true/false false Whether to enforce the order in which a player must reach checkpoints. Enabling this ensures that a player cannot trigger a previous checkpoint by accident. It also ensures players cannot skip a checkpoint, even if the arena layout makes it possible.
mustDoGroupedInSequence true/false true Whether grouped dropper arenas must be played in the correct sequence
ignoreRecordsUntilGroupBeatenOnce true/false false Whether records won't be registered unless the player has already beaten all arenas in a group. That means players are required to do a second play-through to register a record for a grouped arena.
makePlayersInvisible true/false false Whether players should be made invisible while playing in a dropper arena
killPlaneBlocks list see this The types of blocks compromising parkour arenas' kill planes. Add any materials you want to use for the "bottom" of your parkour arenas. +WOOL and other block tags are supported.

blockWhitelist default:

  • WATER
  • LAVA
  • +WALL_SIGNS
  • +STANDING_SIGNS
  • STRUCTURE_VOID
  • WALL_TORCH
  • SOUL_WALL_TORCH
  • REDSTONE_WALL_TORCH
  • +BANNERS
  • +BUTTONS
  • +CORALS
  • +WALL_CORALS

killPlaneBlocks default:

  • LAVA
  • MAGMA_BLOCK

Record placeholders

Player records can be displayed on a leaderboard by using PlaceholderAPI. If you want to display a sign-based leaderboard, you can use the Placeholder Signs plugin. The format for the built-in placeholders is as follows:

%gameMode_record_recordType_gameModeType_identifierType_identifier_recordPlacing_infoType%

Variable Values Description
gameMode dropper / parkour A selection of which game-mode you are getting a record for
record This must be as-is. It's a selector in case placeholders are added for more than records.
recordType deaths / time Selects the type of record to get (deaths or time).
gameModeType default / inverted / random Selects the game-mode to get the record for.
identifierType arena / group The type of thing the following identifier points to (an arena or an arena group).
identifier ? An identifier (the name or UUID) for an arena or a group (whichever was chosen as identifierType).
recordPlacing 1 / 2 / 3 / ... The position of the record to get (1 = first place, 2 = second place, etc.).
infoType player / value / combined The type of info to get. Player gets the player name, Value gets the value of the achieved record. Combined gets "Player: Record".
