Better Trial Chambers

Free forever. Updated almost daily. [](https://discord.gg/aWMU2JNXex) [](https://ko-fi.com/darkstarworks) [](https://patreon.com/cw/darkstarworks) Turn one-time Trial Chambers into replayable multiplayer dungeons. | **Vanilla** | **With this plugin** | |---------|------------------| | First player gets everything | Every player gets their own loot | | Chamber stays empty forever | Resets on a timer | | Vault opens once | Cooldown, reset, or pay keys to reopen | | Spawners get griefed | Protected | | One chamber layout | Build your own / Datapack | | Nothing is tracked | Stats and leaderboards | | Set up each chamber by hand | Found automatically | # Better Trial Chambers ### Setup 1. Drop the JAR in `/plugins` 2. Start the server 3. Type `/trial setup` 4. Answer the questions 5. Walk around your world & see the magic happen Chambers register themselves as you find them. Done. Screenshot: native Dialog UI on Paper 1.21.7+ Old world, or you want to pick the chambers yourself? > Auto-discovery is off by default on purpose, because on established worlds, player-built stuff made of tuff and copper in rare cases are mistaken by the plugin for a trial chamber. Select chambers with WorldEdit instead (if your world has many of those structures): ``` //wand /trial generate wand MyChamber /trial snapshot create MyChamber ``` Same features either way.

By weight, or by plain % chance - Different loot per chamber - Edit it all in a menu. No YAML *(optional)* **Resets** - Chambers restore on a timer you set - Players get a warning first - Set it to `0` to only reset by hand **Protection** - Nobody breaks blocks or spawners inside a chamber - Optional: let players tunnel in through the wall. They get no drops, the wall heals on reset **Custom chambers** *(optional)* - Use a datapack, such as [Crazy Chambers](https://modrinth.com/datapack/crazy-chambers) - Or make rooms yourself, the plugin stitches them into a new chamber **During a fight** - Boss bar shows wave progress - Spawner mobs stop killing each other - Leftover spawners glow so nobody hunts for the last one - Dead players can spectate their team **After completion** - Statistics; Vaults opened, mobs killed, chambers cleared, time spent - Leaderboards - 30+ PlaceholderAPI placeholders **Under the hood** - Paper, Purpur, Pufferfish and Folia - Won't lag your server! Big chambers load in small pieces (smooth even with only 4GB ram) - SQLite or MySQL - Every message is editable in one file (fully translatable) - Config updates itself, keeping your settings. ### Reference Commands | Command | What it does | |---------|-------------| | `/trial setup` | Walks you through the settings | | `/trial menu` | Everything, in a GUI | | `/trial list` | All your chambers | | `/trial reset ` | Reset it now | | `/trial snapshot create` | Turn on auto-reset for the chamber you're standing in | | `/trial generate wand ` | Register your WorldEdit selection | | `/trial dungeon generate ` | Build a chamber from your rooms | | `/trial dungeon import ` | Import `.nbt` rooms or a datapack | | `/trial loot set ` | Change a chamber's loot | | `/trial stats [player]` | Stats | | `/trial leaderboard ` | Top players | | `/trial reload` | Reload config | [All commands →](https://esmp-fun.gitbook.io/plugins/better-trial-chambers/reference/commands) Permissions | Permission | What it does | Default | |------------|--------------|---------| | `btc.admin` | Everything | OP | | `btc.stats` · `btc.leaderboard` | See stats | Everyone | | `btc.spectate` | Spectate after dying | Everyone | | `btc.bypass.cooldown` | Skip vault cooldowns | OP | | `btc.bypass.protection` | Build inside chambers | OP | | `btc.discovery.notify` | Get told when a chamber is found | OP | > Cooldowns look broken when you test as OP!
