    Hi, I have been playing super smash mobs mini-game on the server Mineplex and have been enjoying it a lot. I know that I can t get that exact plugin and I dont want any pre-made plugins. What I am asking is that were do I learn bukkit coding to make minigames such as these. I have basic knowledge of java and have searched all over the internet. After getting basic knowledge of java, I looked all over youtube for bukkit coding tutorials that would teach bukkit coding super easy and explain it really well without making it too complex. I watched the BC Bros updated tutorials (which was actually posted on 2015). Even though it has only 14 episodes, I am on like the 12th and have realised that I wont learn how to code minigames such as super smash mobs on Mineplex. I even have a little bit of bukkit knowledge now. I want an easy to understand tutorial that would be quick and allow me to be able to code super smash mobs plugin myself and being pretty close to it. Not trying to copy mineplex but want to learn it because I love that minigame. A lot of the tutorials post other plugin tutorials such as anti-griefing and other stuff. I want to learn stuff like how to make lives for each players, scoreboards, special attacks by right clicking weapons (please play the minigame to understand what I ma talking about please). Thanks in advance.

    @BonseAbaan You are talking about SSM as if there just one super simple and easy to understand way to code this. That is not true. Im a little bit wondering about that a person who has "basic" knowledge in java assumes that there is a spoonfeed for a whole game. You WILL find a tutorial on how to make custom entities, shooting projectiles, double jumps, creating explosions, particle effects etc but in the end of course YOU have to combine all this methods YOURSELF. I cant say anything more than go for it and find your way through the internet. It might be hard, you might struggle since you seem not that used to it but "Just do it!" :D

    @BonseAbaan there is NO easy way to create a plugin like it, NONE! You have to start from the bottom, then work your way from the top. Learn useful things like Locations, Particles, ItemStacks, Player Methods, Entity Methods, Events, and all that stuff. What you're wanting to make is pretty complicated, but it is possible (I have the ability to make it but I choose not to) and it requires managers, custom objects, listeners, and more.

    If you want to go for it and make it, go for it! Try your hand at it and see how you do. Of course ask questions and research stuff as well, but don't expect us to hold your hand every step of the way if you do.

    I didnt say that there would be a single tutorial that would spoonfeed me to make a minigame. I was asking if you knew a series that might explain all the components such as explosions, events, particles... over the course of its episodes as I dont know everything that I would neede to learn to code a minigame such as ssm

    I guess most things you ll alrwady find in this forum if you search for the right key words. Id suggest you to just start and look where yoi get problems and then ask here

    You will need to search all of this stuff up on the forums. There's no tutorial explaining all of this in a series. Find the components you want to learn about in a forum post or something, then experiment with them.
