About HealthBar
From SpigotMCShow the damaged entity their health in an ActionBar
HealthBar is a new generation of showing your target their health. The idea is from the new series on the English youtube community "How 3 MineCraft" (#H3M)
What this plugin does is very simple, whenever you attack a player/mob, or a player/mob attacks you, you will get a ActionBar with the health of the specific target. The bar format is configurable.
This plugin requires Java 8 to work!
This plugin has a few small features:
- Show the damaged entity their health in an actionbar
- Enable/Disable permission to show actionbar
- Custom Mob name Support
- Change entity display name in the actionbar
- Customize the actionbar in the style that you want (see screenshots below for examples)
permissions:
healthbar.reload - Reload Configuration
healthbar.show-bar - Show bar (if permission is enabled)
commands:
/healthbar reload - Reload Configuration file
Default Configuration:
# HealthBar Configuration
format: "&f%damager - &c[%health&c]"
health-format:
health-used: "&c|"
health-not-used: "&4|"
gamemode-settings:
enable-gamemode-settings: true
disabled-gamemodes:
- adventure
- creative
use-customname: true
disabled-worlds:
- my_world_name
disabled-entities:
- ender_dragon
- wither
enable-permission: false
disable-players: false
display-names:
#zombie: "Brain Chopper"
#skeleton: "King of Archery"
How to full bar should look like. In here %damager is replaced by the player name, or by the attacked entitiy type, %health is being replaced with the entity his health.
-health-format:
What the health should look like, health-used is the health that the entity still has, and health-not-used is the health that is already removed. (The damage that the player already took)
- gamemode-settings:
Enable/disable the gamemode settings + disable the healthbar for specific gamemodes
- use-customname:
Enable/Disable custom name showing in HealthBar
-disabled-worlds:
Worlds where the HealthBar is disabled.
-disabled-entities:
Entities that should not show the healthbar.
- enable-permisison:
Enable or disable the permission to show healthbar
- display-names:
Change how to entity type should be displayed in the actionbar. This will only work if the mob doesnt have a custom display name by itself. Remove # in front of the examples to make them work.
If you got any problems with the plugin, PM me before leaving a bad rating, thanks
