Hangman
Nothing happens in your server chat? You are looking for a funny game?
This plugin is the classic version of the game "Hangman". One player sets a word, and the other players have to guess it. They can guess single letters or the whole word. They have 12 tries.
Usability: I tested this plugin on my server for a while. All new players immediately understood how it works.
How it works
One player starts a new game:
All other players can guess the word:
Features
- Self-Explaining Commands
- News Message to advertise the new plugin (You can disable it in the config.yml)
- 5 second Guess Timeout to prevent message spam
- Simple Swear Filter with autokick (Look at the config.yml)
Commands (in Version 1.1.1)
Command | Description | Minimal Permission Node |
---|---|---|
/guess <letter/word> | Guess the word. | hangman.guess |
/hangman | Displays the help. | hangman.guess |
/hangman hide | Hide all game messages. | hangman.guess |
/hangman show | Show game messages. | hangman.guess |
/hangman new <word> | Open a new game with the given word. | hangman.new |
/hangman hint <letter> | Give players a hint. | hangman.new |
/hangman kill | Stop a game. | hangman.kill |
Permissions (in Version 1.1.1)
- hangman.guess
- hangman.new
- hangman.kill
The plugin also works without permission systems: By default, all players can guess words and start new games, but only OPs can kill games.
Can you implement a top score list, and some simple rewards like money, items? Possibility to automatically pick random words from a list of words, on a timer? Just suggesting.
awesome nice work on the update. and ya i think ill allow most people to start new games. but block the newb rank or something that way it cant be used to spam as easily. also i had to laugh that butt is a banned work with hangman lol.
@wolfwork
I updated it. I will rewrite the plugin completely soon, and make the code more readable
Please update new github (https://github.com/schmidtbochum/Hangman) source
@schmidtbochum
Thank you. Will report back to you how it went :)
@ThisUsernameIsMine
Release 1.1.1 fixes the permission problem.
I will rewrite the plugin and use the bukkit metadata system in version 2.0
Add a Reward System
Hey, I wanted to say I put this on my server and all my users figured it out right away. One thing that we all think would be pretty sweet is the ability to generate a reward for the correct answer, maybe a random item out of a configurable list? This way admins could make a game the players would have to guess. Thanks for the Sunday entertainment XD
Thanks for the cool plugin/mod :)
edit: I'm using both bPermissions and Vault but even with the new nodes added, my users don't have permission to use the commands. Only ops can use it (tested @ 1.1.0)
Oh.. I opened the jar and looked in plugin.yml. It had a hangman.play listed, and after i added this to my player groups they could start games and guess! o_O
plugin.yml: http://dev.bukkit.org/paste/6557/
(but there's more)
When doing /hangman , it shows:
/hangman show: Hide hangman messages until you leave the game.
/hangman hide: Show hangman messages.

The new version is waiting for approval.
I changed the permissions to:
I recommend you to let all players start new games. Often there is no staff online.
ya i agree starting a game should be admin only, other then that aweosme work, i just wont tell people how to start one >_> see how long it lasts XD
Nicely written plugin, well thought out, easy for users to understand.
I agree with the hangman.new permissions.
Thanks for this!
I already use Unscramble, another chat minigame shall be nice.
Can you please change the perms, I rather not my players have access to that.
/hangman new <word> hangman.new
