Tributes

A Paper Minecraft plugin that tracks player deaths as tributes and announces them Hunger-Games-style with cannon sounds.

Features

  • Death tracking — Every player death is recorded with the player's name, UUID, death message, and timestamp.
  • Cannon sound — An explosion sound is played for all online players when someone dies.
  • Broadcast announcement — A bold red/gold message is broadcast: "A tribute has fallen: [Player]".
  • Recent tributes list — Players joining the server see a list of all tributes fallen in the last 24 hours.
  • Custom MOTD — A configurable welcome message is sent on join. Edit plugins/Tributes/motd.txt and use {player} as a placeholder.
  • Persistent storage — Death records are saved to plugins/Tributes/deaths.json and automatically pruned after 24 hours.
