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.

The next version (releasing very very soon) will keep the players inventory when they join, and return it after the game is over

Posted Jun 27, 2012Found a slight issue when players join the hbg arena from another world on our Multi-World server. When a player finishes & goes back to their original location after the fight, all of the items they may have been holding have all been swallowed & to be never seen again. A lot of my players are less eager to join the arena due to this problem :)

possible without spout, but not without clearing everyone's skin, because they are technically registered as different players when you change the nameplate. However, because I do plan to add several spout features to this plugin(optional features of course). I'm sure I could add something like that in. :) Maybe even allow players to form alliances with others and change name colors accordingly!

Posted Jun 26, 2012Phew, finally done with cleanup. This means that the next update is right around the corner. Also, to give you guys an idea of how messy the code was, it took me 12 hours of programming to make it nice and neat(relatively).
@dev7kasper
Several people have requested something like this, but I'm not really sure how I would do that, as it would require the server owners to be extremely careful with all their chests before they are ever able to run a game. I want to think of a sturdy solution for this, before I actually attempt it.

In that case, this next update may very well fix the problem, as I'm going to try to add better delays and I also damage the player instead of setting health when they explode on countdown to hopefully fix it if it's a problem where the death events aren't firing. Thanks for the detailed description! :)
@creeper5778
There is a tutorial page for it. Check the links section.
@dev7kasper
I don't know about that, maybe it's possible. I will likely try to add it in the future because I do believe that is what happens in both the book and the movie. However, your best bet for now is to either pull the lever right when the countdown finishes, or just get rid of the redstone altogether.

The problem is that the plugin can get a bit unstable when moving players from the lobby to the arena. For example player lagging a bit just explode when being teleported because they where moving in the lobby. When that happens the plugin seems loose track of the player and only says he/she joined after the game has finished so it never fills the chests. It also keeps spamming that person about moving outside the arena and all commands like /hbg leave and /hbg stop stop responding untill he/she relogs
Also the chests only fill the first time I start a game. The second time they just stay emtpy

Posted Jun 25, 2012Hey guys, I just want to let you know that I'm still working hard on this next update. I worked on repackaging and clean up for about 3 hours today, so I'm starting to see some real progress.
I've also gotten some other stuff done, so check the next update section. I've highlighted things I've finished in blue.
And now, responses:
@urndel
Very much aware of the inventory not restoring. I'm planning on adding it in on this next update. As for the chest refilling, do you mean that they fill up some of the time, but not all the time?
@Baamoink
Still very sorry about that problem. :( Like I said before, I'm cleaning everything up, so hopefully that will help me find and fix the problem you are having. Just hang on a little bit longer. <3

Please submit errors in the ticket a spoiler forum. Not a link elsewhere to them and both the problems you have stated have already been brought to the devs attention.
@Baamoink
This error is only for you then. Could be conflicting with another plugin. i have put almost all his verisons of the release through hell none of which have generated the error you are talking about. Post your steps to causing the error again and if i finid it to be true i will submitt a full updated ticket to tom. He does make a great plugin though youd be smart to stick with him.

Posted Jun 25, 2012I went through the effort of recreating my arena for a 5th time, got a few of us to test the plug-in. Everything seems to run really smooth, the chests work great. My only gripe is that wipe on server restart error. Otherwise out of the 3 HungerGame plug-in's I've tried, this is easily the most suited one for my server. Keep up the good work! Hope to see a fix to this problem soon :)

Posted Jun 25, 2012Inventories should be reset when a game ends. Right now (at least on my server) invertory gets cleared when you join but you dont get anything back when you leave the game (either by leaving, winning or dying)
Also chest don't always fill up. That part should really be more robust.

Yes i have had this happen to me once aswell however these few updates they released seem to fix the issue as i have had no problems with saving. However i am finid that chests for some reason are resetting themselves and going blank. When we go to start hit the chest to find nothing in them. All to be worked on though i have noticed they actualy work extreamly fast, and still make progress. So im sure we will see results soon.
