Bounties that keep up with the game.
Most bounty plugins still list 1.21.x. SpruceBounty is built against Paper 26.2 from day one, and we publish a compatible update within 72 hours of every Paper release for a new drop — that's the SpruceWorks pledge, tracked publicly in our changelogs.
What it does
- Set bounties with Vault money:
/bounty set <player> <amount>— multiple players can stack onto one target, contributions tracked per placer. - Claim on kill: full pot to the killer, configurable broadcast (chat + optional title).
- Paginated GUI (
/bounty list) with player heads, sort by amount or newest. /bounty top,/bounty check,/bounty cancelwith configurable refund %.- Admin tools: remove, clear, reload — with full contributor refunds by default, no database surgery needed.
Anti-abuse, built in
- Per killer→victim claim cooldown blunts alt farming (default 30 min).
- Optional same-IP kill ignore (on by default).
- Immunity permission for staff. No self-bounties. Environment kills never pay.
Server-owner friendly
- Every player-facing string in
messages.yml, full MiniMessage — hex, gradients, hover, the lot. No legacy color codes anywhere. config.ymlcovers min/max amounts, placement tax, refunds, cooldowns.- SQLite storage, async writes, saves on change and shutdown.
- PlaceholderAPI (soft-depend):
%sprucebounty_own%,%sprucebounty_top_name%,%sprucebounty_top_amount%. - bStats metrics (id 32880). Requires an economy plugin with Vault.
Versions & platforms
- Paper 26.2 (api-version 26.2), Java 25.
- Folia: scheduler-safe internals, official support in testing — a Folia build for 26.2 doesn't exist yet; the moment it does, we test and flip the flag. Follow the changelog.
Roadmap
- v1.1: GUI search.
- SpruceBounty+ (in development): bounty boosters, decay, hunter streaks & leaderboards, Discord webhooks, MySQL, offline bounty placement, importers from other bounty plugins. Free stays free.
