HungerBarGames
The Hunger Bar Games Plugin
HungerBarGames is a Hunger Games plugin currently under development by tomjw64 and HaydenCappadona. Our goal for this plugin is to be the most or one of the most full and complete Hunger Games plugins available publicly.
Please remember that this plugin is still in Alpha so it will in all probability have a few bugs here and there!
If you do find a bug please create a ticket and we will fix it as soon as possible.
Our plan for this plugin is to make integration with any kind of server a possibility, and to make it easy. Whether your server is creative or survival this plugin will work like it's suppose to.
We also are trying to make arena management as simple as possible. Who wants to refill all the chests in the arena manually? Nobody, that's who. Our plugin will allow you to assign chests to classes that you can define yourself in the configuration to have them filled automatically each round. Our plugin will also handle arena reloading, giving you the option to either rollback changes on the arena or completely restart the entire world.
This plugin will be very easy to install as well. We will include pre-made chest classes and options, so that you can just drag and drop the files into your plugin folder and get started. We also will not have any dependencies!
Lastly, we plan to make everything in this plugin as configurable as possible. From chat restriction to assigning the chance an item has to spawn in a chest, you decide how your games are run!
Announcements:
Is your server running HungerBarGames? If so and you want some more players on your server, let us know and give us some server info! I hope to make a list of servers that people can join to try the plugin out.

We are working on it as we speak. You can check on the project on GitHub. While I can't exactly estimate when this will be fully released, I can tell you that we will probably be running a plugin beta within the next couple of weeks.
As for maps, the plugin will be compatible with ANY arena in ANY world you want. It will also revert changes to the arena that happen during the game
Any new info on when his will be released? I really want to use it... Will it work on any map I want, or will it require one of vareide's maps?
Hey everyone! HaydenCappldona and I will be working together on this project. You can follow the progression of the plugin on our github:

Hi, I got very excited reading the entire description, and was disappointed to find out that there is no download yet. I would like to use this for my Hunger Games server, We are starting to get large, and had a full game today with 30/30 people, and with no lag what so ever.
So if i could get a download of the plugin, that would be great!
We'll get back to me please, or private message me please.
!Hey can i have the plugin because i am hosting a hunger games server with all my friends
Sorry for being a pain, but how do you download this plugin?
I want it:O
It would be nice if you'd let some people test your plugin. (I volunteer!) Awesome ideas!
Would you be willing to let me test some dev builds, pm me, i am more than happy :)
@HaydenCappadona
Hello HaydenCappldona, what I mean by the cannons, after a player death in the defined world that would most likely be set in the config if multi-world is supported, usually the hunger games only has one live per tribute. So, once a player dies, a cannon shot would play so everyone knows someone died. Numerous hunger games plugins do this now, some use lightning sounds, some use cannon sounds. Cannon is better. :p As for the death notifier, (also configurable if possible) you could have a message come up in chat stating X tribute killed X tribute with X OR X tribute has died by X where X could be fall damage, suicide, fire, lava, etc. Alternatively, with the death cannons, you could have all dead tributes announced at night in-chat. Just a suggestion. :p
Also another suggestion, would it be possible to limit chat in a radius but have it only limit it in the defined world if the plugin is multi-world compatible? Therefore essentially blocking the main world's chat in hunger games?
This is an awesome idea.
This is a great idea i would LOVE to have this on my server its so hard getting people to go in the holes with out them running around tand not staying in them :). Also when they die can you make it so that they go to a place of your choice.
Can i suggest, adding support for selecting an arena, so possibly a sphere radius selection or cuboid selection. Also allowing multiple spawnpoints for the tubes :) Other than that, looks amazing, cant wait for a release :)
@rtcabooservb Hi rtcabooservb, I will most likely add multi-world later on once I have completed everything else :D But I'm not sure what you mean by cannon/death notifiers, please explain and I will look into it :D
Regards, Hayden.
Also very interested in trying this plugin. As long as you add support for multi-world and cannon/death notifiers, this plugin would have everything I'm looking for.
Hey,
I would really like to use this on my server. I would also like to talk to you, I could get some logos done for you, advertise a bit etc. I also know a bit about Java. Please contact me I would really like to talk with you as this is a great idea.
