Hunger Games
About
Hunger Games is a minecraft server mod which enables any user to host Hunger Games on their server. The plugin has features which include, and not limited to, everything you see in the classic movie. The plugin features hidden chests, sponsorships, and sudden deaths! Not only does this plugin include all of the confusing details from the actual event, it automates them all for you! When downloading this plugin, we know you have two things in mind: Does it work to the extent that I want it to, and how much space is this going to take up? Easy. This plugin has been extensively tested and fleshed of all erroneous code, and made sure to be efficient as possible, while using only a fraction of data. Here, we made sure to emphasize that ANYONE can run a successful games on ANY server. Using this plugin, you can have the server that booms with a huge number of users playing, and a dedicated server for only Hunger Games, and the only thing you need is this plugin!. Also, if you're a smaller server owner, you can use this plugin alongside your other favorite plugins and still play a game or two with some friends. The plugin has NO dependencies, but also works with other plugins if you wish. Storing your players' stats is now a breeze. With large databases or just simple text documents, player kills, wins, deaths, points, and total games played are stored in either a MySQL database or a text document. What makes this plugin the best, is that everything that could possibly turn your games from boom to bust are configurable! Nearly everything is configurable and if there is something that is not but you want configurable, just ask or submit a ticket and we will try to accommodate you. Also when we update the default config, you don't have to let it regenerate or anything. It just adds the options that were missing for you.
Databases
- MySQL - When available and specified in the plugin's configuration file, the mod will take full use of database provided by you locally or externally. Simply enter the database information, and player stats will be stored safely away in the database. Changing data is also as easy as a command, or the administrator can choose to push data through a GUI. No confusing SQL queries!
- YML File - If you don't have a MySQL Database available, the plugin will use a yml document to store player data. Although this is not recommended, this provides an easy way for users to view and edit player stats.
Requirements
No plugins required! There are no other plugins required to run this plugin. Although, it is suggested that you get plugins for anti-cheating and multi-world to make it easier to use this plugin.

@SSzretter
not at the moment but I may add that in soon.
@pupnewfster
Just switched in the newest spigot and it did not work. Interesting, the second person to hg join put them in spot 6. However it did not warp them over to the map. So I just switched back to the latest craftbukkit, and it seems to be working fine
Is there a way to edit the time before the death match to make it longer?
I need video stuff about usage =)
@DarkGalaxy
try it without spigot, I am going to try to figure out why it doesn't work with spigot and fix that today or tomorow or at least try to
Spigot and hg work for me together try changing to craftbukkit then updating to latest spigot build http://ci.md-5.net/job/Spigot/. I think it was an issue it wouldnt initialize the map properly without changing to craftbukkit first
@DarkGalaxy
So far with pupnewfster's help, we figured out there is an issue with Spigot. If I run the regular craftbukkit, it works. We are still trying to figure out a second issue with what is happening when the game starts. Something related to the corner or spawn point positioning maybe. Hopefully tonight.
@SSzretter
This happens to me also.. Tried to look this up on youtube but no one helped
Ooooo so sexy. ;D
@SSzretter
could you maybe pm me your ip so i can get on and see what the issue is
@pupnewfster
Yes, 3 people joined, did forcestart, it counted down 3 minutes, then said the game started, but nothing happened. Did not teleport anyone ...
@SSzretter
yes it is, did they join and did you try /hg forcestart because maybe its automation wasn't initialized
@pupnewfster
So I downloaded a map, set the 24 spawn points, plus #0. I set two corners, encompassing my whole play area. However, what happens when the game starts? Seems like nothing is happening. Is it supposed to teleport players to the spawn points?
@SSzretter
no that is done automatically
@pupnewfster
Thanks. Do you normally ever RESET the map? For example, if some things were damaged, etc? Is that a manual process?
@SSzretter
just google minecraft hunger games maps, any will work if you set spawns and corners, or you could make your own map
@pupnewfster
Do you have an example? I just want to make sure I download something that makes sense for THIS plugin...
@abertonica
It is modifiable once bukkit accepts the build, the other way to do this is go to http://crossge.com/index.php?/files/file/3-hunger-games/ for the dev builds which has the ability to change max players in
Is the max number of participants still 24??? I noticed you updated last tuesday. If that is still the max amount of players, please please please make it modifiable, and increase it to a much greater number.... Under commands it still says 24 : /
@SSzretter
Yes unless you download a map from google that already has chests and that stuff
@pupnewfster
Do I have to create the chests myself?
@SSzretter
The arena can be any size you want you just have to set the 2 corners that it will look for chests and keep players in, and you have to set spawnpoint 0 (for spectators to spawn), and you don't have to set all 24 if you do not want to, but if you don't i suggest in the config.yml to modify max players to whatever you decide to set it to. This is with the 1.0.9 build that bukkit is reviewing
