SimpleBounty
Looking for a simple way to let players put bounties on each other? SimpleBounty handles the whole thing automatically—no chat spam, no weird setups, and no headaches.
Features
- Easy Chest GUI: Everything's managed through a clean menu. Players can check active targets, post new rewards, or look at past kills without having to leave the chest UI.
- Instant Auto-Payouts: Nobody needs to type commands or swap codes after a fight. As soon as someone gets the kill in PvP, the money goes straight to their account.
- Vault Compatible: Works directly with Vault, so whatever you use for your server's economy (EssentialsX, CMI, etc.) will just pick it up.
- Exploit Protection: Built to stop menu item stealing, double payouts, and money duplication bugs.
- Auto-Saves Everything: Changes write to disk immediately with backup copies, so server crashes or quick restarts won't wipe target data.
- Fully Configurable: Change menu titles, set payout caps, and edit any message with regular color codes.
How It Works
Getting a bounty running is a quick four-step process for your players:
- Run
/bountyand hit Create Bounty. - Pick a player, enter the reward amount, and confirm.
- The funds get held safely, and the target goes onto the global board.
- The first person to kill them gets the cash instantly, and the record moves over to Completed Bounties.
