CreativeParkour is a plugin that allows your players to create, publish, share, download and play fun parkour maps in secure areas. Players can compare their jump skills in parkour maps they build!
This plugin has unique features like player ghosts (inspired by Mario Kart) that will add fun and competitiveness to your server with a cool and easy-to-use parkour game. Downloading CreativeParkour will instantly allow your players to build their own parkours and have fun with community-made parkour maps from https://creativeparkour.net, for free!

Map creation:

  • Each player gets a secured plot to build their parkour map in creative mode (it doesn't need plot plugins)

  • WorldEdit with most of the usual commands like set, copy, undo... (completely secured and restricted to parkour maps and AsyncWorldEdit compatible)
  • Players can build maps with friends (with "/cp invite <player>") and easily manage the contributor list ("/cp contributors")
  • Special signs to set spawn, start and end points, unlimited checkpoints, death height, death blocks (these signs disappear and are not special blocks like in other plugins, so all the blocks can be used to make good looking maps!)
  • Special signs to give potion effects to players (like speed, jump boost, blindness...)
  • Special signs to give Ender Pearls or Elytra to players
  • Special signs to teleport players within the map

Commands

These commands are the 3 most important to know (The Big Three):
/cp play [map name] : Displays the map list to choose a map and play on it (or directly teleports the player to the specified map).
/cp create : Puts the player in a new map in creation mode. They can also come back to their last edited map and find maps in which their were invited by using this command.
/cp leave : If the player is in a map, teleports them where they were before playing CreativeParkour.

Data collection and web communications

Metrics

This plugin uses Metrics, a service that collects data about the server to display statistics on mcstats.org.

The following data is collected and sent to mcstats.org on server start: players currently online (not max player count), server version string (the same version string you see in /version), CreativeParkour version, Metrics revision of the implementing class, server's GUID (generated by Metrics)

This data is only used to make global statistics about CreativeParkour that are publicly displayed on this page. If you want to disable data collection by Metrics, set "enable data collection" to false in configuration.yml

Auto updater

The plugin uses Gravity's auto updater to fetch and install updates automatically using the official Curse's ServerMods API. This auto updater can be disabled by setting "enable auto updater" to "false" in configuration.yml.

creativeparkour.net

The plugin can communicate to its website (creativeparkour.net). It uses the secure SSL protocol. These information will never be publicly displayed without your explicit consent. There is no file downloaded on your machine, data is only sent, read and processed by the plugin.

Here is the list of collected data:

Data collection (can be disabled by setting "enable data collection" to false in "configuration.yml")

  • Server UUID (randomly generated by the plugin)
  • Plugin version string (for statistics)
  • Number of players on the server and playing CreativeParkour (for statistics)

  • To fetch ghost skins: UUIDs of corresponding players (can be disabled by setting "fetch ghosts skins" to false)

General communications (can be disabled by setting "enabled" to false in the "online" section of "configuration.yml", ghost download and upload can also be disabled without disabling map downloading and sharing)

  • Server UUID (randomly generated by the plugin)
  • Plugin version string
  • Server IP and server name (for server registration, from server.properties)

  • To download ghosts: map UUIDs and players' UUIDs of wanted ghosts
  • When uploading ghosts: map UUID, player UUID, player name, ghost creation date, number of ticks and milliseconds the player took to finish the parkour, number of ticks the player took to reach checkpoints of the parkour, and every 2 ticks: player's location in the parkour, head rotation, sneak value, flying with Elytra value

  • To download a map: the map ID (found on the website) and server's version (to know if the map is compatible)
  • To synchronize ratings: difficulty and quality ratings in downloaded or shared maps.
  • Nothing else.
