Tumbleweed Elimination Tournament

Welcome to the exciting new Don't Starve mod - "Tumbleweed Elimination Tournament". In this mod, players will be randomly grouped and placed on a tiny piece of land, kicking off a thrilling survival competition. You need to cooperate with your teammates to survive the ever-emerging challenges and use various means to disrupt your opponents. Ultimately, who will be the last survivor to win this elimination tournament?

Main Gameplay

Random Grouping and Placement

  • At the start of the game, players will be randomly divided into multiple teams (six or eight teams) and placed on 5x5 pieces of land. Each piece of land is marked with a team number.
  • When the mod is enabled, the Tumbleweed PVP mode will be automatically activated, disabling all boats and sailing recipes. PVP mode is enforced, and the mini-map is turned off.

Tumbleweed Mechanism

  • Periodically, tumbleweeds will be sent to each team, containing various items, monsters, and menus. This is inspired by the "Fancy Tumbleweed" mod.
  • Players must open the tumbleweeds promptly; accumulating too many unopened tumbleweeds will result in the team's elimination.

Ghost Mechanism

  • After a player dies, they become a ghost and can continue to play by haunting their team's items but cannot interfere with other teams.
  • When all players in a team have become ghosts, a timer starts. If they do not revive within the specified time, the team is eliminated due to ghost timeout.

PVP and Victory

  • Every night after the start of the game, Twin Terrors will spawn and randomly attack surviving players. If the Twin Terrors are not killed by daylight, they will automatically leave.
  • When only one team remains, the match ends, and the last surviving team wins. The system automatically resets the world and starts a new round.
