The Building Game
The Building Game
SethBling's 'The Building Game' - optimized for Bukkit
by Stealth2800
Version: 1.1.2-stbukkitlib
Tested on Bukkit: 1.6.4
Description
A plugin'ized version of SethBling's 'The Building Game' that fully automates the game for your server.
The Building Game is similar to the game of Telephone. Players enter an idea they wish to see other players build and the next player in the game builds it. Afterwards, the next player after that guesses and so on, until the game ends. Then players can see if their idea made it through multiple build/guess rounds successfully.
With this plugin, multiple games can run at the same time and are fully automated. No need to create rooms or reset them - the plugin does that on its own. Also, a big difference from the original game is that this plugin allows games to have different numbers of players rather than the default 7. Any odd number starting at 3 and above will work.
Looking for a gameplay video to demonstrate how the plugin works! PM me if you create a video or are interested.
Features
- Multiple arenas
- Multiple games at the same time
- Signs or commands to join games
- Support for theoretically any amount of odd-numbered players (3, 5, 7 [default], 9, etc.)
- Scoreboard like the original game has
- Saves player inventories, exp, hunger, exhaustion, etc. and restores them after they leave their games
- Prevents players from using signs or inventories while in game in order to prevent them from easily giving away their idea

Disclaimer
The original game idea is by SethBling. I claim no credit for the idea of the game. This plugin was created to replicate it and was created entirely by me, Stealth2800.
@ThelpixGamer
Follow what the usage page says. The process should be clearly explained there.

@fr233
Is the plugin broken?
please update :)
Hey, any update for 1.8.1 on this any time soon? And maybe the ability to customize the size of the arenas? Perhaps we could build it then use WorldEdit to select it? And also fix the bugs mentioned before :D
Hi there,
My server is running this plugin, and it's really good! I've had loads of fun with my friends, but when i try with people online, people can easily troll by joining full games and then leaving, kicking everyone out of the game. Is it possible that you can fix the plugin so people can't join full games? Thanks, I really like the plugin, but this bug is a bit game breaking.
i've added a server with this plugin, check your inbox for more info
@Phasesaber
They're a bit essential to the functionality of the plugin though.
Looks cool, but maybe not add a lot of dependencies on it? Server Owners might not want to have a ton of plugins on there server, which might drive them away from this (awesome) plugin.
Id Love to help you sir. As I am looking forward to implementing the plugin onto my network but see that you haven't updated to 1.7.* yet! Let Me Know, ServerCOMMAND Founder: Knights of Games Court Manager/Founder: Soul Wind Network

@imhero
Alright, currently my list of things to do regarding Bukkit plugins is: 1) Finish up plugins for a private project. 2) Write my game library. 3) Focus on updating my public plugins.
The game library will most likely be written alongside that private project and I will be using that to rewrite this plugin. However, this may not be all too soon due to the fact that I am incredibly busy with school and other things right now. Once summer comes along, I should have more free time so I should be able to update this sooner.
Is this plugin going to be revamped? Is there an eta on when it will be updated?
@vovan2301
Any errors? I can't help you with that little information.
my bukkit server not see this plugin
@JudgeXion
That's a known bug right now. I will be rewriting this plugin sometime in the future and it should fix that. Pull requests are welcome on the GitHub for this plugin so you or any other developer is welcome to attempt to fix it on your own.
Another question, Is there anyway to block people from joining a game when there is already 7 people in the game or 7 people waiting? Beacuse I had people click on the sign after the game already started
I feel stupid now, I saw the commands but not the permissions on the side <.<
