    -- GameDispenser --
    Global Bukkit minigame manager and library
    What is it?
    GameDispenser is a Bukkit minigame library and manager with a "make once, run unlimited" approach. Beta launch is Saturday August 30. GameDispenser is made as Galaxy Gaming's (WIP) minigame core, but also for public use. When August 30 comes around, there will be full documentation and example minigames already made.
    GameDispenser makes it easy.
    The point of GameDispenser is to make minigames easier for everyone. Developers don't have to worry about things like joining and which game is which. Administrators don't have to get so confused about all the commands and permissions. Finally, players don't have to get confused about how to join this or how to do that. The BukkitDev page (awaiting approval) will explain this all more in-depth.
    Features
    • Games
      - Full command and sign system for joining
      - Component system to easily setup games
      - Simple make once, run unlimited times design (with no extra work!)
      - Easily and safely load and unload games
      - No more worrying about which game the player is in with GameDispenser's custom events
      - Games are easy to code with built-in scoreboards, team, kits, runnables, and more
    • Utilities
      - Util for messages
      - Util for items, including loading from configs
      - Util for locations and selections, including regenerating selections
    • Arenas
      - Easy-to-create arenas with the component system
      - Built-in configurable wand to select points and the option to regenerate them with a single line
    • Teams
      - Easy options for developers to code teams and players to join them
      - Queue system
      - Built-in spectator team (no need for every game to make its own every time)
    • Kits
      - Easy to configure
      - Works with the item utility to load from files (with enchantments and colors on leather) and give to players

    Update: We're currently not sure the status of our WIP website. That's where tutorials and documentation would be posted. We are still releasing tomorrow, but we might have to improvise a little. viper_monster

    Sounds neat. I am most likely going to use this, especially for the sign system that was mentioned.

    Update: There are no tutorials or anything quite yet because there's no website, but we have released the source code with its full documentation. When the website is up you can view the docs there, but for now you can just generate them in your IDE.

    Lactem got a simple example of a game? I learn best from looking at example code. :p

    drpk Yes I suppose I should release an example game. Give me a minute.

    drpk https://github.com/Lactem/TNT-Run Alright there you go. Sorry about the lack of tutorials right now. We are still waiting for website stuff.

    EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
