Minigames

== NOTICE == 9 Aug 2016 ==
As most of you have already worked out, public support for this project has been non existent. Unfortunately with the workload of trying to manage and run a server network where minigames is only 1 out of what feels like 1000 projects we maintain... It gets hard trying to find time to help everyone.
But fear not this project is indeed not abandoned! We have moved the project to SpigotMC:
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/minigames.19687/
++Update Note Aug 2017++
Please Note I have provided updated downloads for all versions back to 1.7 .. We are trying to get some idea of what versions people are running still and what we need to focus on...updating will help us target our product improvements.
The files section contains various version downloads OR you can dowload them : - here
Minigames is a plugin in which users can create and play several types of Minigames on a server, without the risk of losing items or XP when they die. Players can also use checkpoints so when they die, they are reverted back to that position.
The Possible Minigame types are:
- Single Player - for jump puzzles, mazes etc.
- Last Man Standing - A multiplayer Free for All (FFA) PvP Minigame
- Race - A Multiplayer race Minigame
- Team Deathmatch - A deathmatch round against 2 teams, first to a defined score wins!
- Deathmatch - A free for all deathmatch round against any predefined amount of players, first to a defined score wins!
- Spleef - Its possible to create custom Spleef arenas, as well as your standard spleef arena.
- Treasure Hunt - A global treasure finding Minigame that is always running
- CTF - An expansion to the Team Deathmatch Minigame.
- Infection - An expansion to the Team Deathmatch Minigame where the infected players must kill all survivors.
Features:
- Prizes for completing a Minigame
- Economy support (Requires Vault)
- All command configuration for creating Minigames
- Completely customisable, lots of settings to create your own styled Minigame.
- Ability to create multiple loadouts
- Inventory saving
- XP saving
- Minigame regeneration (slightly limited)
- Timers
- An automated update checker for OP's (Can be turned off in the main config by setting updateChecker to false)
- SQL completion data storage for websites or more informative data (Requires SQLibrary)
- And lots more!

Purpose:
Minigames was created for players to play games within a server and win prizes for completion, also to let players play PvP games without the risk of losing their hard earned items and XP. Minigames also reward players for completing each Minigame, or with PvP Minigames, the player can be rewarded with 'bets' that players make before they start the Minigame. These bets can be in Economy money or preset items.
These Minigames can be created in any style the player wishes, for example, parkour jump puzzles, mazes and treasure hunts. As well as PvP games like CTF, races and more. You are given a lot of options to add to each Minigame individually, so they are all completely customisable.

Posted May 9, 2013EriickKun, the plugin isn't updated for 1.5.2 so that's why you can't make team deathmatch games. TeamDM only works for the version of bukkit it was made for, last update was for 1.5.1 and you are using a different version.

CTF is still there, and so is TeamDM it just doesn't work in incompatible versions. (CTF works in any version, either DM or TeamDM is fine).
@sirmyllox
Gave it a test and it doesn't seem to happen in my build, though I'll double check before release.
@vertigolf
I will add an option for enderpearl use, but not before next release.

Posted May 7, 2013@ Razz One of my map developers made an enderpearl course. Too bad nobody can do it cuz tp and warp are forbidden to use. Is there a way to disable no use of commands for 1 minigame? If theres not i have to find another way to do it.

Well, I extend the question to you then. How do you feel about bringing more mini-game builders/admins on board along with their players? I'd love to join with a large mini-game server if it meant bringing more players to my games. Maybe other admin-builders would be on board with the idea as well? The more players, the more games, the better the server, yes? It could be fun.

Thanks Razz for your reply. I had read you FAQ so I just suggested to Mace68 to use dm type. I'm glad to hear that the teamdm type is pending approval! Is the new one going to include the old ctf type? Very excited!

Plenty of them out there, Hypixel probably has the largest. ;)
I am slowly working on one, just getting everything built & tested on my main server then eventually splitting it up when it gets enough attention.

I've gotten surprisingly lackluster responses for the idea. Yours seemed to be the only positive one. Reddit seems to have zero dedicated mini-games servers (am I the only one, really?). Yours sounds fine, and you have survival and what-not as well. The survival in my server is largely played down. Other owners of mini-game servers seemed to be concerned with stealing player counts, who gets credit for the server, etc, etc. Really frivolous, irrelevant, kinda self-absorbed issues. I don't care who runs it, I just want lots of talented map builders in one big server full of players. PMC was useless in this regard. I'm pitching the idea on Reddit now. As for the language differences... might be an issue? I dunno. That's up to our player bases and how much you actually need to communicate to play a mini-game.
Does anyone even know of a large, mostly-dedicated mini-game server out there? Do they even exist?

Ignoring? No, I've replied to this several times. I've even written something on this, but no one seems to read it (FAQ, its there for a reason). Yes, that means a 1.5.1 build is NOT compatible with 1.5.2, due to how the teams work. I implemented something to disable Team Deathmatch on incompatible versions, otherwise Minigames wouldn't work at all.
The only reason I haven't released a compatible version is because I've got a newer version almost ready (pending a couple changes). Theres no point releasing the older version if I'm just about to release a newer version (especially with the 1-2 day wait for approval).
I do have some good news though, you won't have this issue anymore when I do release the new version, it will be compatible with all future versions. :)

How does it work? because I was also trying to make team deathmatch game instead of "free for all" deathmatch. I can make the "dm" working but these games are all goes "free for all".
It looks like Razz is ignoreing bunch of ppl's asking for "teamdm" and he only says read the description. "Team Deathmatch - A deathmatch round against 2 teams, first to a defined score wins! (Requires the correct server build version)" I took this as teamdm is not compatible for current bukkit's newest version of 1.5.2.
Am I missing something (e.g. wrong sign format or not setting the game by typing /mgm set commands). or is the minigame v1.4.3 just not supporting teamdm system?
I need clear answer.
By the way, thanks for providing great plugin for us Razz. This is core plugin for my gun PvP server.

In the newest version, the type is no longer "teamdm". I believe it's just "dm". Ergo, it'd be "/mgm set <minigameName> type dm".
