Hunger Games
Hunger Games
About
Hunger Games is a minecraft server mod which enables any user to host Hunger Games on their server. The plugin has features which include, and not limited to, everything you see in the classic movie. The plugin features hidden chests, sponsorships, and sudden deaths! Not only does this plugin include all of the confusing details from the actual event, it automates them all for you! When downloading this plugin, we know you have two things in mind: Does it work to the extent that I want it to, and how much space is this going to take up? Easy. This plugin has been extensively tested and fleshed of all erroneous code, and made sure to be efficient as possible, while using only a fraction of data. Here, we made sure to emphasize that ANYONE can run a successful games on ANY server. Using this plugin, you can have the server that booms with a huge number of users playing, and a dedicated server for only Hunger Games, and the only thing you need is this plugin!. Also, if you're a smaller server owner, you can use this plugin alongside your other favorite plugins and still play a game or two with some friends. The plugin has NO dependencies, but also works with other plugins if you wish. Storing your players' stats is now a breeze. With large databases or just simple text documents, player kills, wins, deaths, points, and total games played are stored in either a MySQL database or a text document. What makes this plugin the best, is that everything that could possibly turn your games from boom to bust are configurable! Nearly everything is configurable and if there is something that is not but you want configurable, just ask or submit a ticket and we will try to accommodate you. Also when we update the default config, you don't have to let it regenerate or anything. It just adds the options that were missing for you.
Databases
- MySQL - When available and specified in the plugin's configuration file, the mod will take full use of database provided by you locally or externally. Simply enter the database information, and player stats will be stored safely away in the database. Changing data is also as easy as a command, or the administrator can choose to push data through a GUI. No confusing SQL queries!
- YML File - If you don't have a MySQL Database available, the plugin will use a yml document to store player data. Although this is not recommended, this provides an easy way for users to view and edit player stats.
Requirements
No plugins required! There are no other plugins required to run this plugin. Although, it is suggested that you get plugins for anti-cheating and multi-world to make it easier to use this plugin.

I know that there is still an issue with arenas sometimes not starting. This started with minecraft 1.6 and have been working on fixing it since. It keeps on coming back after I thought I solved it. So am working on fixing this for 1.1.3
@Wegotskillz1234
It is compatible with 1.5.2 I believe.
Is There a 1.5.2 Plugin!? _____________
@Remcove
isnt there a way to make /back not work to take you to some worlds and if you type /hg spectate after they are already using /hg spectate (name) to specate then it takes them out of spectating mode. So there is already spectating added into this
Cool everything is working fine :) Could you maybe add 1 small thing since my players are asking now how to leave the spectating mode.
Could you make it so that the /back command is temperarly disabled because when you die and a server has /back enabled you can use it in spectater mode and enter the gaming ground again. And could you make it so that it will give you a message like: You are now in spectaters mode. You can leave this via /hgleavespec
Thanks alot
@lonelyronin
You could use a sign or something to put a message warning about inventory clearing. Also I am not positive this would work but if you use something like Multiverse Inventories I am somewhat sure this will make their inventory stay. If you use this method I suggest you test if first because I am not positive it would work.
@Remcove
I will add an option into config disabled by default that is spectateOnDeath
@lonelyronin
In the config file there is a thing that says playersDeathMatch: 3 I think this means that when there are 3 players left there will be an deathmatch. You could try setting the numer at 0 so the plugin won't start a deathmatch. Also the deathtime is the time that the deathmatch runs. Note that when you disable the deathmatch round your game could last a really long time if you have a large hunger games arena. The players have to find each other manually.
Oh and I don't think you can change just the last message because all messages are the same only the time is changing.. But I don't know how this plugin is coded so maybe you can.
@Remcove Thanks for ur quickly answer, i will try. I have another question, it`s a way to disable death match? so i can´t change the broadcast message at least? i wan`t to put a warning about the items clearing, thanks a lot
@pupnewfster
Thanks alot, is there btw a way to force people to go in spectate mode instead of going to the spawn. And then you give them an option to just leave and go back to the spawnpoint of the server where I've set the /hg setworldspawn
@lonelyronin
Yes the inventory will be cleared when they join and be reset when the game is over to the items they had before the game started (this setting is default and will happen always I think). Also you could change the interval of the messages from 30 seconds to like 1 minute or higher. Don't know if you can fully disable it.
Hi, im trying this plugin and seems to be very good. i have some questions, it´s a way to a player who have stuffs in the inventory to join the arena and when he finish the game have his stuff back? this is happening at least with my server. And, there`s a way to change the broadcast messages? because my server is pvp and it`s kind of anoying. Thanks
@Remcove
I will add something that adds a setting in config to disable it showing uploaded as dev2
@pupnewfster
yes I mean the (score) bit.
@Remcove
Unfortunately not in the same world YET, but just set up arena same way as before in a different world. And do you mean the "(#)" or what?
@pupnewfster
Its working :) I forgot to program the setworldspawn. One last question. is it possible to remove the score prefix that you get after winning or losing a match?
p.s. Is it possible to make more then 1 hg arena in the same world? If yes, how? and if yes but not in the same world, how?
@Remcove
the 1 is the district number so I feel like something is being glitchy but am not able to look into it till tomorow Actually just thought of something have you set /hg setworldspawn at your serverspawn point
@pupnewfster
when you have a score of 0 it says (0) infront of your name but when you win a match it says 1 without the () can that be edited that the color and the () will stay the same
so you have
(1)owner remcove after a win, (0)owner remcove normal, (-1)owner remcove after a loose.
@Remcove
not sure what you mean with prefix and I will look into the problem tomorow
@pupnewfster
well the server stays online now but I've got another strange issue. The game itselfs work.. Sometimes it's saying that someone tried to leave the game.. but I think thats an corner issue. The bigger issue is that the game is not working when its finished. When the game finishes and someone gets his points he keeps respawning in the game and is not able to leave it. I cannot forcestop it because there is no game running.
When he tries to leave: http://pastebin.com/41VupuBZ
and another strange issue is with the prefix: http://i.imgur.com/fvWdEe6.png
@Remcove
Change in config.yml maxPlayers to 2 so that it doesnt try to find 24 locations
@pupnewfster
Yes I made a small game with 2 spawnpoints and an spectator point. I also made sure I did the 2 corners to cover the whole game and did the setchests inside of the hg area. I tried to play it with 2 players
