Challenges Addon

Add-on for BentoBox to provide challenges for any BentoBox GameMode.

Where to find

Currently Challenges Addon is in Beta stage, so it may or may not contain bugs... a lot of bugs. Also it means, that some features are not working or implemented. Latest official Beta Release is 0.7.5, and you can download it from Release tab But it will work with BentoBox 1.5.0 only.

Latest development build will work with BentoBox 1.7.0-SNAPSHOT, as it contains new functionality, that is not in 1.6 release. Nightly builds are available in Jenkins Server.

Be aware that 0.8.0-SNAPSHOT stores data differently than it is in 0.7.5 and below. It will be necessary to migrate data via command "/[gamemode_admin] challenges migrate".

If you like this addon but something is missing or is not working as you want, you can always submit an Issue request or get a support in Discord BentoBox

How to use

1. Place the addon jar in the addons folder of the BentoBox plugin
2. Restart the server
3. The addon will create a data folder and inside the folder will be a config.yml and an example challenges.yml
4. Edit the config.yml how you want.
5. Restart the server

Challenges

Config.yml

As most of BenotBox addons, config can be edited only when server is stopped. Otherwise all changes will be overwritten by server. The config.yml has the following sections:

• Commands - ability to enable /challenges command. This option change is possible only via configuration and requires server restart. To enable, you should change single-gui to true.
• History - ability to enable completion history storing in player data object. To enable, you should change store-history-data to true. It is possible to change life-span of history data in days. (0 means that data will not be removed)

  • Remove non-repeatable challenges from the challenge GUI when complete. Default is false.

  • Locked level icon is displayed for locked levels.

• Store mode - ability to store challenges completion per island or per player. To enable storing challenges data per island change store-island-data to true. ATTENTION: progress will be lost on this option change.
• Reset Challenges - if this is true, player's challenges will reset when they reset an island or if they are kicked or leave a team. Prevents exploiting the challenges by doing them repeatedly. Default is true
