FortunePillars

**FortunePillars - Complete Plugin Overview --- Description **FortunePillars** is a high-altitude Battle Royale minigame plugin designed for Paper Minecraft servers (1.21.1 - 1.21.8). Players are teleported onto individual floating pillars high in the sky, trapped in glass cages during countdown. Once the game starts, cages break and players receive random loot every few seconds. The objective is simple: **be the last player standing**. The plugin combines elements of luck (random loot), strategy (resource management), and skill (PvP combat) to create an exciting, fast-paced minigame experience. With multiple game modes, cosmetic customization, and comprehensive statistics tracking, FortunePillars provides endless replayability for players of all skill levels. --- Core Concept ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ CAGE CAGE CAGE CAGE │ │ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ │ │ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ← Players spawn │ │ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ in glass cages │ │ ▓▓▓▓▓ ▓▓▓▓▓ ▓▓▓▓▓ ▓▓▓▓▓ ← Floating pillars │ │ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ │ │ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ │ │ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ │ │ │ │ ════════════════════════════════════════ │ │ VOID (Death) │ │ ════════════════════════════════════════ │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` Game Flow ``` ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ │ WAITING │───▶│ STARTING │───▶│ IN_GAME │───▶│ ENDING │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ Players join │ │ Countdown │ │ Battle until │ │ Winner │ │ Vote modes │ │ 30 seconds │ │ 1 remains │ │ celebration │ │ In cages │ │ In cages │ │ Random loot │ │ Stats saved │ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ │ ▼ ┌──────────────┐ │ RESETTING │ │ │ │ Arena resets │ │ via schematic│ └──────────────┘ ``` --- ✨ Features ️ Arena System | Feature | Description | |---------|-------------| | **Manual Creation** | Admins create arenas using simple commands | | **Flexible Height** | Pillars can be at any Y level (not height-sensitive) | | **8 Spawn Points** | Support for up to 8 players per arena | | **Glass Cages** | Customizable spawn cages during waiting phase | | **Auto-Reset** | Arena automatically restores using saved schematic | | **Multiple Arenas** | Run several games simultaneously | | **Boundary Protection** | Players can't build/break outside arena bounds | Loot System ("The Fortune") | Feature | Description | |---------|-------------| | **Timed Drops** | Every 3-5 seconds (configurable) | | **Random Items** | 1-3 items per drop | | **Smart Filtering** | Excludes operator items (bedrock, command blocks, etc.) | | **Spawn Eggs** | Includes mob spawn eggs for chaos! | | **Random Enchants** | 30% chance for enchanted weapons/armor | | **Random Potions** | Potions have randomized effects | | **Balanced Mode** | Option to exclude OP items | Included Loot Categories: - ⚔️ **Weapons**: Swords, axes, bows, crossbows, tridents - ️ **Armor**: All tiers (leather → netherite) - **Blocks**: Building materials, TNT, obsidian - **Food**: Cooked meats, golden carrots, golden apples - **Potions**: Random positive/negative effects - **Spawn Eggs**: Zombies, skeletons, creepers, and more! - **Tools**: Pickaxes, flint & steel, fishing rods - ✨ **Special**: Ender pearls, fireworks, totems Excluded Items (Operator): - Command blocks - Barriers - Structure blocks - Bedrock - Light blocks - Debug stick - Spawners Game Modes | Mode | Icon | Description | |------|------|-------------| | **Normal** | ️ | Full loot table with all items | | **Balanced** | ⚖️ | Mid-tier only (no netherite, no OP apples) | | **Swapper** | | Positions swap every 30 seconds | | **Shuffle** | | Inventories randomize every 60 seconds | Spectator System |
