Encounter StateMinecraft plugin · 2026
A plugin that turns a Minecraft map into a staged scenario
Defend the observatory: switch on the relays, defeat the sentinels, hold the zone and seal the rift.
Demo scene
The scenario leads players through stages
Start at the lodestone, then relays and sentinels, then holding the zone. The next stage opens only when every goal is done.
Progress is always on screen
The stage and counter sit at the top, a hint at the bottom. Step out of the circle and the count pauses.
A finale with a reward and a replay
The beacon lights up, players get an amethyst, and a new run starts at the lodestone.
Logic is separate from the map
Stages and goals are described in config.yml. The scenario engine does not depend on Minecraft and passes 27 tests.
