A unique take on Dream's manhunt game with many features, built from scratch.
All credit for the idea goes to Dream. His Manhunt videos are awesome, and you should check him out.
This plugin is out of beta, but there's probably still a lot of bugs! You can help out by testing the latest build on our Jenkins or the latest stable release.
- Change settings and add hunters/runners with
/manhunt settings. - If you want to stop the game manually run
/manhunt stop.
When the game is started, all other players will be put into spectator, and the hunters will be given a compass that they can use to track the nearest runner. When all runners are dead the hunters win but if one of the runners kills the Ender Dragon the runners win. The runners cannot respawn, but the hunters can. For the rules, check the rulebook (obviously you can make up your own rules if these don't fit your taste).
- Multiple hunters/runners support
- SuperVanish/PremiumVanish support
- Scenarios - Add twists to your game
- Spectator support
- Automatic removal of player from game if they disconnect
- Settings menu
This plugin does not have any dependencies, but it works with SuperVanish or PremiumVanish to hide any spectators who are in vanish from the Manhunt player list.
Please report any bugs you find in a GitHub Issue or improve our code and make a pull request! We're always open to suggestions!
This plugin has a (somewhat simple and somewhat terrible) API for developers to use. You can start and stop the game and access the list of runners and hunters. See this page for more info.
We use bStats to track how people use our plugin.
If you don't want bStats to collect data from your server, you can disable it in the bStats config file. This file can be found in the
/plugins/bStats/folder.
The config file is well documented with comments. Just look at the config.yml file in the plugin's folder on your server.
Below are some parts of the default config. More documentation about the config can be found here. On large updates, you might have to delete the config file and let it regenerate.
