Donations
I have a really busy schedule so money motivation is always nice! There is a button in the top right corner to do so :) Even if you don't want to donate, I could use other forms of help. If anyone wants to help create a wiki/youtube tutorial or give ideas please message me. I can list you as a sponsor/helper on this page and promote your server. Also, any feedback is much appreciated!
@getgoodkid can you make a tutorial of setting it up? im a nub.
hey @getgoodkid how can i change it to minecart from horse?
@Pixiyo
Look in the races.yml file. It's an option there. You can also use the command "/rt toggle horse".
@getgoodkid
Where can i change the free horse? It's no where in my config.
@Pixiyo
To your first question: I was putting that off until later because people can use multiverse and other inventory plugins to solve that problem.
To your second question: I'm confused. When players join, it should spawn them on a horse if and ONLY if you set a spawn and free horse is set to true. Set the race spawn with "/rt set spawn".
@CrimsonLeon
Okay quick question: What should the text format look like on the sign? Should it have colors? Post an example please.
@getgoodkid
Can't you make something like a temperary inventory when you join the horse race?
Would be awesome if you would spawn on a horse.. But that will be hard i think?
I have a very important request . Every race or mini game has a sign to join a game . Can you make a sign join feature ? I will thank you very much if you make it very quick Please .
@Pixiyo
I just uploaded a quick fix version that kicks players from the race if they try to leave the horse. It's the best I can do at the moment sorry. Bukkit won't allow for much more anyway. Things will be better when I finish my Horse RPG plugin which will allow for proprietary horses!
Thanks again for your support, GetGoodKid
@getgoodkid
How can i make sure that people won't steal the damn saddle's of the horses?

I've been extremely busy lately and haven't had a lot of time to make a tutorial. I was hoping one of my users would before I had to. Anyway, I'll try to briefly explain it again.
First, download and install the plugin like normal (if updating, remove the original Race Tournaments folder with config file stuff).
Second, start your server and make sure it doesn't log errors in the console. If all is good, get the race-line-tool from the config file (which should be a GOLDEN PICKAXE [id 285] unless you changed it).
Now left click a block to set 1st corner of the start line area. It may ask you to create a race first so just type "/rt create [name]". Right click the 2nd corner like with World Edit to complete the start line region. Type "/rt set start" to finalize the start area.
Do the same for the finish line area, but MAKE SURE the finish line area has trip wire connected to the holder thingies so it can be activated. Type "/rt set finish" instead of "/rt set start" to finalize the region.
Lastly, set a spawn if you'd like with "/rt set spawn" (sets at your location) and have users type "/rt join" to join the race.
To manually start race, type "/rt start [race name]" which starts the default race UNLESS you are in a different race.
@Kussie
Thanks for the long comment explaining some issues. I'll try to respond as well as I can.
First off, I am working on a proprietary horse plugin which would mean players would have their own set of horses that they could race. That will solve the free horse issue and the leather/saddle farming issue.
Second, you CAN specify the start gate height last time I checked. Same with finish line. All you do is select the CORNERS like with world edit (you can make the starting line a cube or whatever you want).
Third, there is an automatic end feature that ends the race after your specified time. I thought it was self-explanatory but I might make a tutorial later.
Finally, at the moment I intended users would use Multiverse or region plugins to create custom race worlds/regions. This would solve the horse farming, teleporting, etc.
Thanks again, GetGoodKid
Would it be possible to have the horse removed from the player when they cross the finish line if using the free-horses option? Because at the moment people can use the races to their advantage and get a free horse and then ride off with it.
Not to mention people on my server have wised up a bit and started farming the free horse for leather and saddles by killing them >.>
It would be awesome if we could specify the height of the starting gate as well. For example i am using fences but they are only one block high, i would love to be able to set it to two blocks high or such if possible.
The race should also end automatically little bit after someone crosses the finish line or after a certain time period. At the moment it is possible to exploit this as a pseudo teleport system on servers which have teleports or /spawn disabled. A player can join a race then dismount and leave the area for as long as they want and then type /rt leave to instantly teleport back to spawn. Or even a config option to disable teleporting when leaving or joining so they have to make their own way there.
Can you please give me a quick more explained tutorial I looked at it have no idea what to do. Maybe make a video?
@Pixiyo
No you need to type "/rt set finish" or "/rt set start" to set the finish and start lines respectively. I'll add that to the instructions.
Please make a better tutorial how this works. Do i need to type /rt create AFTER selecting with the gold pickaxe? Its still saying: ''Need a start line''.
Thanks
@brodders1997
Currently there is no spawn feature for pigs. I assumed most people just wanted horses. I could add a feature for spawning on pigs if you'd like. Otherwise, pigs work the same as horses when you cross the finish line.
@getgoodkid Hey! Could you please tell me how to set up pig races?
Thanks
Personally I would love to see Lap Time/s added :)
Which could then lead to the likes of lap time leader boards in the menu/on signs
Could you add tour system?
