About the Mod

Blockball adds soccer to Minecraft. Map makers place dedicated blocks (goals, spawns, ball spawner blocks) to build a field; the match controller opens a simple settings screen to configure things like match length before a game starts. Once a match is running, the blocks handle scoring, spawning, and goal detection automatically. This works for anything from a 1v1 duel to a full tournament.To open the match controller press B to open the Blockball Tab

Features (current beta)

_Gameplay_

  • A dedicated shoot hotkey [G] with a chargeable shot, so you can vary passes and shots on the fly
  • A HUD meter shows your charge level while you're holding the shot
  • The ball physics track the last player who touched it, for goal announcements and own-goal

_Blocks_

  • Ball Spawner: place it and right-click to register it as the match ball spawner
  • Goal Blocks (Team 1 / Team 2): detect when the ball crosses the line, update the score
  • Team Spawn Blocks: teleport players to their kickoff positions at match start and after each goal
  • Team Color Blocks: decorative blocks that switch texture and glow to match the active team colors

Setup

Blockball isn't survival-friendly yet, so setting up a match in Creative Mode takes just a few minutes:

  1. Build your field and mark the boundaries with standard blocks or Team Color Blocks
  2. Fill each team's net with their Goal Blocks
  3. Place the Ball Spawner in the center and activate it with a right-click, then place Team Spawn Blocks on both halves
  4. Open the team controller , set up the teams
  5. Open the match controller, set the match length, and start
