This is a set of mods I plan to make to address the problem of minimal PvP mod options. This is best summarized by the mods it will be comprised of (Note: This is NOT a mod pack; these can adjusted freely):
  • Game Sessions (WIP) - Implements a way to define discrete gameplay sessions; periods of player activity terminating with the completion of a goal, or else a fail condition (configurable). Goals include:
    • Activating a given wire object
    • n PvP kills
    • n kills of a specific enemy type
    • Completing an event
    • Reaching a given money quota
    • Reaching a given Rewards PP quota.
    • Running out of time (via. Time Limits)
  • Fail conditions include:
    • n deaths of a given player
    • n survivors on a team
    • Another team meeting their goal
    • Running out of time (via. Time Limits)
  • Player Statistics - Logs and displays player statistics for all to see. Deaths, kills, PvP deaths, PvP kills, and (hopefully) even things like network latency and relative progression in the game. Configurable.
  • Player Spawner (WIP) - Implements options for controlling player spawns. Unlike a bed, these points can be adjusted (delay, position, "lives", etc.) with commands, API calls, or bound to a movable (and/or destroyable) game world object. Might implement Lives mod compatibility.
  • Spectator Mode (WIP) - Adds functionality for spectating matches. Teleporting between players, fast movement, non-obtrusive viewing, tracking, and distance icons.
Optional additional mods:
  • Server Browser - Will be revived for use with game modes.
  • PvP Party (WIP) - Provides a server-side UI (and console commands and API) to allow selecting settings presets of the above mods to play any of an assortment of PvP game modes.
    Yes, this includes a Battle Royale mode.
  • Starvation - Players now require food. Allows for some fun possible game mode options.
  • World Boundaries (WIP) - Guess. Configurable.
  • Reset Mode - Implements world resets. Server-side (console) automations may be needed to generate new worlds for each session. This mod will be modified for compatibility with Game Sessions.
  • Nihilism - Allows blocking items, recipes, NPCs, and loot tables.
  • HERO's Mod - Currently still the defacto server admin mod.
