Tron Light Cycle Battles
Light Cycle Battles
This project is now discontinued, if you are looking for a plugin similar to shotbow's, tron. This is not it. If anyone wants to continue to update this, please PM me. <3
Introduction
I've wanted to make this plugin for a while, where players are in a game of light cycle battles from the movie tron. So I finally bring to Minecraft: Tron
If you want to sound like a bad ass while downloading this plugin. Click here.
Game Play
- Two teams spawn on a black wool map. Where a player walks a diamond block will spawn underneath or a redstone block will spawn underneath them depending on their team, red or blue. The goal of this game is to destroy the enemy players by making them walk into your path. If you have no idea what I am talking about; Click here.
Arena Creation
Arenas are made by server administrators, or anyone with permissions can create arenas. Arenas are made of black wool. Where you walk depending on your team will turn the color. Make sure to light up arenas properly and safely and protect them. Diamond blocks are rare materials, so make sure players cannot break blocks. The map resets when the game has finished and all players are dead, and time has ran out.
Commands
- Base command is /tron
- /tron setbluespawn = Sets the blue spawn for the arena.
- /tron setlobbyspawn = sets the lobby spawn for the arena.
- /tron setredspawn = Sets the red spawn for the arena.
- /tron join = Joins a game of tron.
- /tron leave = Leaves the game of tron.
- /tron help = Displays help page
Permissions
tron.admin = Grants access to set the spawns of the teams, and lobby. tron.join = Grants access to join the game of tron. tron.leave Grants access to leave the game of tron.
Bugs/Problems
I can forsee a lot of issues and bugs with the coming of this plugin. Please report all bugs and issues via tickets page. Not the comments! I am going to be checking the tickets page constantly for the next 48 hours to fix as many issues as I can!
Videos
I am looking for some people to do tutorials on how to use this plugin, and to show some gameplay. If you can do it, you will end up on this page.

Thanks for a lot of this feedback! I will be working on this, this weekend. School has been taking a lot of time out of my scheduled. But I will be sure to add and change configurations that you posted here.

Posted Sep 19, 2013Testing this out as I type. I'll add anything I find that seems off to me/any suggestions I have :)
1. There is an arena that's auto generated on installing the plugin. It's defaulted to set to the original spawn of world 'world'. No way to delete/remove it and nowhere is it specified the name of it. It also puts me in the ground so I die if I go to /tron join. (Fixed this myself by simply not being stupid. Sorry about this one.)
2. /tron help doesn't actually return anything, even though if you type /tron, it redirects to there.
3. No /tron arena list to list all arenas.
4. Nowhere is it specified how to actually set up an arena, and /tron create doesn't work. How do you create an arena? o.o EDIT: Derp, arenas are set up through your commands o.o No actual /tron create. Sorry about this.
5. No configurable joinPhase. A queue starts when a player joins. This is a constant ongoing event (puts more strain on the server, as far as I know).
6. No /tron reload to reload the config. As of now, I have to fully restart the server for config changes (not a big issue, but nifty to simply reload the configs while the server is ongoing.
7. Save inventories onJoin, reset inventory while ingame and give back inventory onLeave.
8. Potion effects (mainly speed. simulates the actual bike speed + makes it more fun!)
9. I use Voxel Modpack to generally play. With this, I have a run speed modifier, much like Zombe's flymod has. If I use my run modifier while ingame, some blocks aren't placed beneath my feet. It's not a major issue, but nice to have if you add potion abilities.
10. The match will start even if only one person joins. One person can join, play by himself and then be forced out upon round end...
11. Players who do /tron leave whilst in the arena are not sent back to the lobby spawn. Instead, users can now freely roam the arena...
This is shaping up to be a seriously fun gamemode! Just tested it out myself with a friend and we had some fun :3 Would just be cooler if it was more fast-paced than the normal MC speed. We might hand you a video and a schematic for a very simple test-arena, if you want.

Didn't think it took almost 2 days to get a file approved. Any word on what's happened? Pretty eager to see this thing in action!
EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw the file. It hasn't been there before, though o.o

The plugin is actually done! I need to fix chat colors in the messages and make it look all pretty-like.
