HungerBarGames
The Hunger Bar Games Plugin
HungerBarGames is a Hunger Games plugin currently under development by tomjw64 and HaydenCappadona. Our goal for this plugin is to be the most or one of the most full and complete Hunger Games plugins available publicly.
Please remember that this plugin is still in Alpha so it will in all probability have a few bugs here and there!
If you do find a bug please create a ticket and we will fix it as soon as possible.
Our plan for this plugin is to make integration with any kind of server a possibility, and to make it easy. Whether your server is creative or survival this plugin will work like it's suppose to.
We also are trying to make arena management as simple as possible. Who wants to refill all the chests in the arena manually? Nobody, that's who. Our plugin will allow you to assign chests to classes that you can define yourself in the configuration to have them filled automatically each round. Our plugin will also handle arena reloading, giving you the option to either rollback changes on the arena or completely restart the entire world.
This plugin will be very easy to install as well. We will include pre-made chest classes and options, so that you can just drag and drop the files into your plugin folder and get started. We also will not have any dependencies!
Lastly, we plan to make everything in this plugin as configurable as possible. From chat restriction to assigning the chance an item has to spawn in a chest, you decide how your games are run!
Announcements:
Is your server running HungerBarGames? If so and you want some more players on your server, let us know and give us some server info! I hope to make a list of servers that people can join to try the plugin out.

Hi, I understand now why the chest thing is really important. When the arena rolls back does it not roll back the contents of the chest? Or is the chests thing to make it so the contents change?

Could you give me a hand here?
Everythings working okay apart from the chest function! Can someone explain literally how it works, I understand the coding on the config, but how do you assign a chest/group of chests to a class?
When I do the /hbg assign (class) command, nothing happens, yet there is no error message.
Someone just send me their config setup to make sure Ive done it right? Im not new to plugins, so im very confused!

Delete the HungerBarGames folder in plugins and let a new one generate. Sorry for the trouble, but it's a side effect of the latest version.

Yes, the plugin does currently have the rollback function. It doesn't require MySQL because it's just simply stored in memory. And I am currently working on a way to auto fill and assign chests so that you don't have to find them. That is pretty much the top priority new feature right now.

How is it done without mysql (rollback)? And does the plugin currently have the function to roll back the arena? I'm confused as to whether it is a feature or a future feature :L Above it seems to imply that arena reset after games and auto chest filler are completed, am i mistaken? Lastly, could u incorporate a function that would create chests in random spots around the arena so that people couldn't learn where they were and have an advantage?

Chest restocking is not a lower priority at all. We can't expect people to all use the world based version of our plugin, we also need to think about users who will use the arena system. Also, rollback, in fact, does not require a MySQL database with our plugin. You must be mistaking our plugin with another one.
Realistically, world resets will be done after the spectating system, which comes after the chest restocking. Third place isn't bad.

Posted May 31, 2012Hi, I really like the look of your plugin. I would like to make a suggestion, on your main dev page it says that the plugin will either reset via rollback or by reseting the whole world. Please could you make the ability to reset the arena by reseting the world a priority, it would be really helpful. Also, if you have this, then chest restocking is a lower priority because the chests will be restocked when the world is reset. Another thing is, the reseting of the world is something that your plugin has which others do not, this means that implementing this idea into the plugin will make it stand out against the other hunger/survival games plugins. Futhermore, roll back requires a mysql database whereas reseting the world is much easier for people to set up. For instance you could make a folder called "HungerBarGamesWorld" and they place the original world in there and then at the end of every game it replaces the hunger games world with the one inside the folder.
Many thanks,Sharp237

"name" is the name of the ChestClass that you set up in the configuration.

Posted May 30, 2012Ok everyone, sorry for all the delays and bad things in general. Today and tomorrow, I will be cleaning up basically everything and making it a whole lot more reliable. And for all your patience and trouble, you guys will get an auto chest assigner/filler.

Posted May 30, 2012I'm really not getting all the pvp issues here, so i'll try and clean everything up.
Also, I've figured out how to do the auto chest finding. :) It's really quite clever.

Yeah, just make it do it in the arena, not the world. Your probably right about performance, but this plugin, Survival Games, actually does it without I need to do a command.
