BlockBash

A small Minigame where teams try to control Territories!

BlockBash is a plugin mainly for small servers, promoting groups of 2 or 3 players to compete in set areas against each other - to try and capture the most territory (in this case blocks) in a certain amount of time.

Admins are required to select an arena, place spawn points for the competitors then mark out certain 'capture points' that earn the teams points, in order to win the match. Scores and Current Statistics can be obtained by using a command, and/or using a MySQL database (Future Idea).

Players are required to run over blocks to convert them to their team colour, which earns them a point for each one they successfully capture. Enemy takeovers are worth two points. When entering an arena, players receive an special item used to knockback the enemy, however they do not deal any damage. Winning a game earns people a massive 100 points, however Losing deducts points depending on the point margin between the two teams.

This plugin is still Experimental, so many possible features may or may not have been left out of this summary. Future updates indicated by a changelog should suffice in giving more detail about this.

Usage

Example commands not necessarily the ones that are going to be used.

• /bb - Main command
• /bb help - Same as /bb
• /bb vote - Vote to start a game
• /bb join - Join a random game
• /bb leave - Leave the current game

Possible Future Features

• Integration with several plugins:
  • WorldEdit (Arena Creation)
  • EssentialsEco, iConomy or Vault (For Awards [Wagers?])

Suggest more in the comments! I really need some more features for this plugin! I have big plans for this! ^^

Notice for people interested:

Lots and Lots of development builds will be made for this plugin, to make sure that the released version works correctly and as it should.

If I could get a tester or debugger on this project who is willing to help me with it, I'd appreciate it very much! :)
