FoodBalance
About
FoodBalance is a plugin which forces players to eat balanced. The plugin differences food in 4 categories: Hydration, Carbohydrates, Proteins and Vitamins. A description of all of those will be listed down here:
Category | Description |
---|---|
Hydration | Keep drinking! Beside the famous food-bar, there will a virtual hydration-bar. Keep hydrated by drinking milk, potions or mushroom stew to prevent getting low and dizzy. |
Carbohydrates | A needed energy source, but keep it moderate. Too much will freak yourself out and give you extreme hunger and too little will lack yourself some much needed energy. |
Proteins | Proteins keep yourself strong. Too much is never good, but too little will weaken you to death. |
Vitamins | Keep yourself healthy and fit eating vitamins. Too little will cause diseases, whilst too much will cause extreme poisoning. |
The goal is to keep the the carbo/proteins/vitamins at the same level. Too much/many will freak you out with different kinds of potion-effects. In this way, this plugin forces you to not stick with only one food source (e.g. cooked steaks).
How To Install
- Download the version of FoodBalance you'd like to have on your server

Update Checker
This plugin utilizes Gravity's update checker to notify when a new version of FoodBalance is out, it will not automaticly download the new version. It also notifies the admins (with the foodbalance permission) that a new version comes out. This can be enabled/disabled in the config.yml. To disable update-checking, set updates.check-for-updates to false. To disable admin notifying, set updates.notify-admin to false.

Contact
If you'd like to say/notice/talk or whatever to me, you can always send a PM, mail me to [email protected] or tweet me @CaneyDearie . This can be good stuff, bad stuff or just silly talk (I'm always in for it). My mind supports English and Dutch. If you'd like to talk German or French it can... But I can't express myself that good in those two languages and I'll probably switch over to English.

PLEASE UPDATE TO THE 1.14. ! That would be greadfull!
please update to 1.9-1.9.2
Does this work on 1.8? And could you add the ability to use it with ScoreboardStats? Cheers.

Update to version 1.8, please. With the ability to configure the progress "Food categories" bar. And the ability to turn off thirst.
Hii MrSugarCaney!
I really like this plugin, I used it in my server 2 years ago, but now Im opening a new one, and would like to know if it works with 1.8.3? Also is there any possibility to translate it to Spanish?
Please update this! And allow the use of a scoreboard to show your food balance! :D
@MrSugarCaney
oh thx. :D i think that it doesn't works for the 1.7.2..... but it works. :D thx again
@simonvic
Learn to read :P You can just use it.
Pls can you do this plugin for 1.7.2??? pls
Good plugin but the thirst system drains you too quickly, my whole server itself is just revolved around drinking water. LOL
@rayblon
Haha. :) Working on huge minigame projects (CrystalQuest is nearly done), will see when I have time to rewrite the plugin.
Make it so the player can make the stats show up in leaderboard form. :3
I just want to say... This plugin is amazing. I've done everything in my power to combat food deflation on my server to no avail. People would just sell gigantic heaps of carrots and fairly priced steak and the like dropped out of the marketplace. Hopefully you can work on this soon! ;D
@TheRealSinCosTan
Yeah :) Great things. But I am focussing on CrystalQuest at the moment, which requires some active stuff in the little time I hav.e
I will try to revampt the plugin, but it will require a whole nother engine, so it will slip to a later date..
I love this plugin, but it needs to be more configurable. For instance, when I load the plugin, it does not create a Config folder/file. I think it would be awesome if we were able to change the percentages for how much each category takes up your health. It would also be cool to create our own categories. My only thing so far, is that my players often die from not drinking water. Yes, I know it's not difficult to just make a water bottle and drink every now and then, but it kills players where they shouldn't. They die while AFK and in Factions Safezones. This means that I need heal signs all over the place. It's also a lot of trouble to remember to stop and drink if you're PvPing. I just think these things should be adjustable. I know you're not really into the plugin at the moment, but this is definitely something you should think about if or when you remake the plugin for 1.6 or 1.7.
@MaxKoopmansNL
Maybe. But later... If I will manage to work on this plugin I have to completely rewrite the plugin. Bit tired of this project... Maybe later :S
Could you make a version only for the hydration part?
@John290
SO HAPPY you like it :) I will, eventually. School started again and a tough year it will be! So I really want to continue tweaking this plugin but there will be less time.
Why does it take so long? I completely have to rewrite the plugin to implement the new engine. Have some ideas like starting all values at 1. (then you can eat 2 types of 1 type of food without getting damaged, however the 3rd one will do.) So that will be all pretty swish.
I'm also not completely happy with the damage-system so that also deserves a rewrite.
Glad you like it! And I hope you get why it takes a little longer ;)
PLEASE continue work on this! Works really well for my survival server, however that upcoming Config. File would be a huge help towards tweaking this plugin for my servers needs. (Specifically, option to change the resting balance upon eating golden apples) None the less, I will continue to use this and Thank You for the excellent work already put into it!
Okay I got it.
Also tell me how to add the spanish language and I will traduce everything.
Awesome plugin!
Excellent plugin for the post apocalyptic servers. Please do this plugin more nice that the information was nicely presented.
