Star Hunter
Star Hunter
Search the map for the falling star, mine your way through the star to get to the prize in the center. First person to reach it wins and receives a prize! Sounds easy, right? Wait until you run into other players, or one of the random items turns into something you wish you never got...

What It Does
- After a configurable amount of time, the Star Hunt starts and the location (Random) of the star is announced
- A star (Material is configurable in the config), falls from the sky randomly in the map (Within 5000 from 0,0,0)
- Players have to mine through the sphere (Star drops random items as you mine) to get to the Diamond Block inside, which drops 5 random items
- The first person to mine the Diamond Block gets their name announced and one minute before the star hunt restarts to mine as many blocks as possible
- The next star hunt countdown begins after one minute, the amount of time before the next star hunt is configurable

Description update, multiple things added. See above for more information.
The project team for this plugin is no longer recruiting members, sorry. Although, we are now looking for ideas for the plugin, make a post below or feel free to private message me. Thanks!
We are also looking for a person who is skilled in graphic design to help make a plugin logo, please private message me for more information.
Hang in there server owners, the plugin beta will be out in no time! Thanks for all of the support, I am trying my best at getting this plugin out with as few bugs as possible.
Happy Holidays!
The plugin is finished, I am currently working on removing a few bugs from the plugin.
[waiting and hype intensifies]
my server is ready~
I'll take that into consideration, good idea. I'm thinking about making the block used for the star the strength of obsidian, that way the star hunt lasts longer and more PvP can be involved.
Again, thanks for the support.
I would recommend making the material for the star End Stone. That way it's very recognizable.
Sounds like a good idea!
I have some experience with java, and I have made around four plugins. This is the first plugin i'm making public, so hopefully it does well. Thanks for the support, read my private message for more details. Thanks!
I like this idea!
I can help you to code this plugin :) I already code the Wireless Redstone plugin (you can see it on my profile), and I have some ideas on how to code this one. Let me know you're interested!
Have you ever tried to code a plugin, or is the first time?
No problem, if you ever decide to help let me know. Thanks for the support!
This reminds me of Super Mario RPG!
This seems really cool! I could see a lot of potential with not only rewarding the player with random minecraft drops, but also being able to work along side other plugins granting perms, money, etc.
Great idea!
Also I'd love to offer help, but sorry I just started school for coding and we are doing C so don't think I'd be much help.
I'm looking for coders who would like to help with this project, just send me a private message if your interested. Thanks!
If you have any comments on this idea, just post a comment
