Todo / Suggestions
Nothing now, if you have an idea, please tell me :P
Can someone update this to 1.17 Minecraft?
@DeepCore2
Never mind. My son figured it out for me. I was just doing something wrong. Peter
Hi, Can't seem to get it to work. Downloaded the jar. Dropped it in plugins. Restarted server. /cg wand does not seem to work to start with. Does it work op 1.10? Best regards, Peter
I can't see how that would work since the whole point of geochesting is to hide the chests and then let player to look for them. And to code something that would find a good and appropriate hiding spots would be insane if not straight up impossible.
Do the generator like this!
/cg generate (world/region) (chests per chunk / amount of chests in world or region)
like
/cg generate world1 c0.5 (generate geocaches in world 1, generate 1 chest per 2 chunks)
/cg generate world1 1000 (generate 1000 geocaches in world 1)
@aberts10
Phew, it would be hard to do, but okay, I'll give it a try :)
@PDKnight
like it randomly generates geocaches around the world, ether in a world region or across the world, and gives the option to enter how many caches you want in the selected area....
so for example....
EXAMPLE COMMAND: /cg random (regionselect/world) (amount of geocaches)
@aberts10
Okay, but what it should do? Please be more specific :)
@xH3LLRAIZ3Rx
Did I say it's the best treasure hunt? Anyway, it doesn't change that I brang this idea to Minecraft :P
Thats not the best Treasure Hunt, https://www.gishwhes.com/ is the Greatest International Scavenger Hunt the World Has Ever Seen
could you add a random geocache command like /cg random (amount of caches you want)
@Thewest123
Vďaka! Som rád, že sa ti môj plugin páči :)
Thanks! I'm glad you like my plugin :)
Super plugin! Žádnej co jsem našel nefungoval přesně tak jak jsem si představoval. Tenhle plní vše. Jen tak dál! :)
@2008Choco
It made my day :) Thank you so much! :D
This looks like a neat and creative little idea :D I like it a lot. I have no interest in playing around for it myself because it doesn't particularly suit my server. However, I love the creativity and idea process for this plugin :) Good job man! Keep up the amazing work!
@CrazyKhaos0971
Thanks! :)
This, IS AWESOME! Thankyou for this!
@Forest181
Thank you! On which version did you test it anyway? :)
FYI, it also works under 1.7.10. I just tested it with no errors ;)
