DropperExtended | Hypixel Inspired v1.1

The plugin automatically finds a suitable active arena and sends the player to the waiting lobby. When the minimum player count is reached, the starting countdown begins.

During the game, players complete a route of 5 selected Dropper maps:

• 2 Easy maps
• 2 Medium maps
• 1 Hard map

Players must reach the finish trigger without dying, falling into the void, or hitting obstacles. If they fail, they are returned to the current stage spawn and their fail counter increases.

When a player completes all maps:

• Their finish time is recorded.
• Their placement is calculated.
• Their stats are updated.
• Rewards are calculated.
• Achievements may unlock.
• They remain on their last stage instead of being teleported away.
• They receive a compass to teleport to active players.

When the first player finishes, the ending timer begins. If no active runners remain, the ending timer is reduced to 5 seconds.

Map Voting System
The lobby includes a map voting GUI inspired by Hypixel-style map voting.

Voting features:

• Maps are grouped by difficulty:
  • Easy
  • Medium
  • Hard
• Each map is represented by a paper item.
• Left-click votes for a map.
• Right-click removes the vote.
• Players cannot vote twice for the same map.
• Vote limits are configurable.
• Permission-based vote limits are supported.

Example configuration:
voting: default-votes: 2 permissions: vip: permission: "dropper.vote.vip" votes: 3 mvp: permission: "dropper.vote.mvp" votes: 4

If a map does not receive enough votes, the plugin automatically selects random maps based on the required difficulty distribution.

At game start, the selected maps are announced in chat, sorted and colored by difficulty.

Finish Trigger System
Finish detection is configurable.

Supported trigger types:

• Water
• Portal
• Both
