Minigame API

Can i download a minigame API same as a TabMenu API that i can make minigames very easy in eclipse?

 

@NoSpanMan TabMenu API does one thing and it does it well. What would a minigame API even do?

 

@pie_flavor
Minigame API does exist, it allows you to manage arenas, create teams ect... It makes things much easier.


@NoSpanMan
Minigame API

 

I think a minigame api adds in eclipse things that i easy can make a minigame plugin for example i typ Minigame. and it shows a menu with .arenaadd or .joingame or something thats makes a minigame plugin maker it easyler

But there is a minigame api?

@NoSpanMan Well I work on Lobbies2, which provides Lobbies where Players can join Minigames and I got a Team-Feature in PreLib (PreKit)

 

But is there a minigame api?

 

@NoSpanMan What you search isn't a API then, you search an Library. And I don't think that this does exist (and if so probably not made very well) because every Minigame works different.

 

but I want to make a minigame ( and im not a pro coder that i can make that and i cant find good tutorial to make a minigame what can i do now ?

 

There are several apis / frameworks you could take a look at:

• BattleArena2 (continuation of BattleArena)
  
• MinigamesLib
• PVP Arena
  
• MGLib
• maybe Minigames (probably only a collection of minigames)
• maybe UltimateArena (probably only a collection of minigames)

 

@NoSpanMan Take a minigame a step at a time, they aren't harder than any other just take more time.

 

Thats plugins not apis???

How can i learn it D:?

 

@NoSpanMan
1. Them minigame lib has apis.
2. Lean Java & Bukkit

 

I learned bukkit but i dont know how i make a minigame

And i dont see the apis

 

@NoSpanMan Well then take the minigame step by step. So start with joining for example then move to like arenas.

You add the library and access them.

 

But i dont have any tutorial to learn it.

 

@NoSpanMan If you learnt Bukkit and Java you don't need to learn anything else and can do it. Joining is a easy one, and should have been around the 5th Bukkit thing you learnt.

 

A joining system is the only once what i can make but how can i learn to make arena's or scoreboards and the minigame D:

 

@NoSpanMan Learn Bukkit.

 

Thats not useful.
Learn the ways of the JAVAHDUCKS
*quack*

 

@ChipDev I said before, if you learnt Bukkit you learned joining early and he said he hadn't. I honestly didn't even know what else to say, he obviously didn't fully learn it if he did.

 

How to make a minigame:

1. Make an arena class to store current players, if its playing, etc
2. Make an arenaManager class to manage arena joining and leaving, etc
3. Add commands that allow a player to join by calling the arenaManager class
4. Add logic to your minigame
5. Make a plugin.yml
6. Make a config.yml
7. Profit!!?!
