About ⭐️ Minecraft Manhunt ⭐️ [1.16+]

From SpigotMC

The easiest way to set up Minecraft Manhunt games, just like in Dream's videos!

Overview
This plugin is a free, drag-and-drop solution to anyone who wants to play Minecraft Manhunt with their friends. It implements a player-tracking compass into your server that will point towards the chosen speedrunner - it even works in the Nether and the End!

This plugin was obviously inspired by Dream's Minecraft Manhunt series, so credit where it's due.

Commands

/selectrunner <name> | /runner <name> - Choose who the speedrunner will be.
/getcompass | /compass - Give yourself a new tracking compass (hunters only).

Permissions

manhunt.command.selectrunner - Access to /selectrunner.
manhunt.command.getcompass - Access to /getcompass.

Usage
This plugin is very simple to use. All permissions are given by default, so no need to worry about not being able to use any of the commands. It is for use on Minecraft 1.16+ only, but I may add support for older versions if that's what people want - note that the tracking compass cannot work in dimensions that aren't the Overworld in versions prior to 1.16.

Once a speedrunner is selected, all other online players become hunters and are given a tracking compass each. If someone joins the server after a speedrunner has been selected, they will not have a role, meaning if you want them to be a hunter too, you will need to select the speedrunner again by using the appropriate command.

If a hunter dies, they will automatically be given a new tracking compass upon respawning. If a hunter somehow loses their tracking compass, they can easily give themself another one by using the appropriate command.

How the Tracking Compass Works
The tracking compass in this plugin was designed to work intuitively across all three of Minecraft's dimensions - the Overworld, the Nether and the End. To use it, a hunter must simply right-click while holding it and its needle will point towards the speedrunner's last known location.

If the hunter is in the same dimension as the speedrunner, their last known location will be where the speedrunner was at the time of right-clicking.

If the hunter is in a different dimension to the speedrunner, their last known location will be where the speedrunner was just before they teleported from the dimension that the hunter is in (in most cases, this will be a portal).
