---

Build your lobby and arenas with a hotbar compass, players queue on NPCs, and matches run with a lobby scoreboard, item shop, team forge, upgrades and traps, cosmetics, and an optional end-game dragon phase. One jar runs Solo, Doubles, Trios, and Quads across every supported version. Set it up in-game — there is no config file to hand-edit before you can play, and no license key to buy or activate.

Independent project. Not affiliated with Hypixel, Mojang, or Microsoft.

Game modes

• Solo — 1 player per team
• Doubles — 2 per team
• Trios — 6 teams of 3
• Quads — 8 teams of 4

Each mode has its own queue NPCs, quick-join, per-mode stats, and leaderboard tabs.

In-game setup — no config editing

• Hotbar compass opens Lobby Setup and Game World Setup
• Transactional drafts — Apply writes to disk, Cancel discards
• Create a Solo / Doubles / Trios / Quads void world, use a bundled template, or Import Map a folder world
• Place spawns, beds, forges, shops, chests, and diamond/emerald generators in-world
• A pristine world snapshot is restored between matches

Bundled templates: bedwars-e2560 and Chained (a 4-island map, playable as Trios or Quads).

Core gameplay

• Item Shop with Quick Buy and Blocks / Melee / Armor / Ranged / Potions / Utility categories
• Upgrades and Traps GUI — Sharpened Swords, Reinforced Armor, Maniac Miner, Iron Forge, Heal Pool, Cushioned Boots, Counter-Offensive, Magic Milk
• Team forge with pooled iron and gold (levels 1–4) and rare diamond/emerald drops from level 2
• Tiered diamond and emerald generators (three tiers) with a ground-item cap
• Bridge Egg, Dream Defender, Pop-up Tower, Fireball, Ender Pearl, TNT, Magic Milk, and more
• Punch-to-deposit team chests
• Soft spectate (adventure + flight + invisibility, not SPECTATOR gamemode) so it works on 1.8
• Final Kill detection, kill feed, match rewards, a win effect, and a Play Again button
• End-game dragon phase — once every bed is gone and teams still contend, Ender Dragons spawn and hunt survivors so a bedless stalemate is forced to a finish (configurable, can be turned off)

Cosmetics — 9 categories, 148 items

Category	Count
Kill Messages	29
Kill Effects	4
Win Effects	20
Wood Skins	9
Final Kill Effects	8
Prestige	8
Projectile Trails	10
Bed Destroys	10
Shopkeeper Skins	50

Earned with tokens and equipped from the lobby Cosmetics NPC. Every cosmetic is defined in config.yml and can be renamed, repriced, or extended.

Progression, leaderboards & economy

• Tokens, XP, and levels tracked per player; tokens buy cosmetics, XP drives your level
• 10 leaderboards: Wins, Kills, Final Kills, Beds Broken, Winstreak, KDR, FKDR, Level, XP, Tokens
• Hypixel-style floating lobby board plus a /leaderboard GUI and chat rankings, with Solo/Doubles tabs
• Storage: YAML by default (nothing to set up), or SQLite / MySQL (storage.backend, drivers bundled); migrate with /bc storage migrate <sqlite|mysql>
• PlaceholderAPI support — %bedlamcore_level%, %bedlamcore_tokens%, KDR/FKDR, per-mode stats, live player counts, and more (optional)

Parties & NPCs

• Built-in party system — /party invite, queue together onto the same team, dedicated party chat (/pc); can bridge BungeeParties / Party and Friends
• Reconnect grace — your bed and team slot are held for 60s after a disconnect; return with /rejoin
• Built-in packet queue NPCs (real player models), with Citizens picked up automatically when installed — Citizens is not required
• Profile NPC (stats GUI) and Cosmetics NPC (token shop)

Setup (in-game, no config editing)

1. Drop BedlamCore-0.10.92.jar into plugins/ and start the server. No key, no config to edit.
2. Op yourself and open the hotbar compass → Lobby Setup: set the spawn, place the queue / Profile / Cosmetics NPCs, then Apply.
3. Compass → Game World Setup: create a Solo / Doubles / Trios / Quads world (or use a template / import a folder), place spawns, beds, forges, shops, chests, and generators, run /bc spawnbuild for the waiting area, then Apply.
4. Players queue on the NPCs. For solo testing use /bedlam forcestart.

Commands

Command	Aliases	What it does
/bedlam	/bc	menu · solo · doubles · trios · quads · leave · spawnbuild · forcestart · reload · token · xp · storage migrate
/leave		Leave the current match
/rejoin	/rj	Rejoin a match you disconnected from within the grace window
/party	/p	Create / invite / accept / kick / promote / warp / disband
/pc		Party chat (no args toggles it)
/leaderboard	/lb, /top	View the Bed Wars leaderboards

Primary UX is the setup compass + lobby NPCs; commands are fallbacks and admin tools.

Requirements

• Spigot or Paper — one jar, no version-specific builds. Tested on 26.2, 1.20, 1.16, 1.12, and 1.8.8.
• Java 8 or newer (Java 8 bytecode).
• No license key, no online check — this is the free edition. It runs fully offline.
• Optional: Citizens (nicer NPC bodies), PlaceholderAPI (placeholders), MySQL (only if you choose the MySQL backend).

Free vs BedLamCore Premium

BedlamCore (this page) is free and complete — all four modes, the full match loop, 148 cosmetics, 10 leaderboards, parties, and database storage. A separate paid Premium edition adds more cosmetic categories (Glyphs, Death Cries, Island Toppers, Sprays), a larger Kill Effects set, and multi-language support (English / German / Spanish / French). Everything else is in both editions — if the free edition covers you, you never need the paid one.
