Arena_lib

arena_lib is a library for Minetest working as a core for any arena mini-game you have in mind.
It comes with an arena manager, an editor and a custom entrance system (signs by default). Entrances create a virtual bridge between the normal game world and your minigame arenas.

With arena_lib, you don't have to do the boring job and you can focus exclusively on your minigame(s) :*

Config

1. Install it as any other mod

2. Launch the world at least once with arena_lib enabled and then check worlds/nameofyourworld/arena_lib to customise it

3. Do /arenas help to learn how it works

I want to make a minigame

First time? Check out the wiki to create your first minigame. Otherwise, dive into the full documentation

Optional Dependencies and Add-ons

• (add-on) Hub by me: use it if you're aiming for a full minigame server. It can't be set as an optional dependency, since arena_lib is a hard dependency of Hub in the first place (and MT doesn't like cross dependencies)
• (optional) Parties by me: use it to be sure to join the same arena/team as your friends

Known conflicts

• Beds or any other mod overriding the default respawn system
• SkinsDB or any other mod applying a 3D model onto the player, if teams_color_overlay is used
• Weather or any other mod changing players skybox at runtime (custom celestial vaults will be overridden)

Mods relying on arena_lib

• Block League
• Murder
• Skywars
• ...and many more! (full list)
