BoatRacing

An F1‒style ice boat racing plugin for Bukkit/Spigot (compatible with Paper/Purpur) with a clean, vanilla‒like GUI. Manage teams, configure tracks with the built‒in BoatRacing selection tool, run timed races with checkpoints, pit area penalties, and a guided setup wizard.

Status: Public release (1.1.1)

See the changelog in CHANGELOG.md.

This is how we test the plugin to validate its behavior after each update: see the QA checklist in CHECKLIST.md

What's new (1.1.1)

Lobby and stability updates:

• Optional registration lobby zone: new racing.lobby.* config block. When enabled, players are teleported to a configurable lobby zone/location when they join registration.
• Quick lobby command: new /boatracing setup setlobby command saves your current position as the registration lobby and enables it automatically.
• Return to previous location: with racing.lobby.return-on-leave: true, players return to their original location when they leave registration or when registration is cancelled.
• Active track safety: race commands no longer force a disk reload when the requested track is already active (notably unsaved), avoiding stale in-memory state issues.
• Track reload consistency: TrackConfig.load() now clears all in-memory collections before reading from disk.
• SimpleScore compatibility hook: when SimpleScore is installed, BoatRacing now integrates with its hide/show viewer flow during races to prevent sidebar ownership conflicts and restore the external scoreboard after stop/cancel.
• Registration restart-loop fix: fixed a state/timer issue where an old race open countdown could survive start/force/stop paths and re-trigger race starts unexpectedly.
• Setup clickable UX: setup wizard/admin tips now suggest commands in chat when arguments are needed, so players can tab-complete before execution.
• Lobby messages translated: lobby teleport/return feedback added to EN/ES/zh_TW/ru message files.

Explicit compatibility:

• SimpleScore: BoatRacing includes explicit compatibility with SimpleScore.
• GitHub: https://github.com/RuiPereiraDev/SimpleScore
• Modrinth: /plugins/simplescore
• TAB: BoatRacing includes explicit compatibility with TAB.
• GitHub: https://github.com/NEZNAMY/TAB
• Modrinth: /plugins/tab-was-taken

What's new (1.1.0)

Languages and player controls:

• Multi-language support: messages are now fully translatable. Configure language in config.yml: language: "en" (English, default) or language: "es" (Español — Spain). Language files are automatically extracted to the plugin folder. Reload with /boatracing reload to switch languages without restart.
• Player-controlled race management: new config option player-actions.allow-player-race-start (default: false) lets non-admin players open, start, force-start and stop races. Can be overridden per-track via racing.allow-player-start: true in individual track configs.
• Reward system: full customizable race-end rewards. Configure under racing.rewards with position-specific commands, messages and broadcasts. Supports placeholders: {player}, {position}, {time}, {track}, {laps}. Per-track rewards override the global config.
• Performance: PlayerMoveEvent throttle — checkpoint detection now only triggers when entering a new block, not every sub-meter movement.
• Complete i18n infrastructure: all plugin messages (race, setup, team, admin) updated to use the new externalized message system with dynamic placeholder support.

Previous versions:

• 1.0.9: Compatibility across 1.19–1.21.11; safe boat/raft materials; Bukkit/Spigot classification on Paper.

What’s new (1.0.9)

Compatibility and fixes:

• Official support: Bukkit/Spigot/Paper/Purpur 1.19 → 1.21.11. Requires Java 17+.
• Safer boat types across versions: dynamic Material resolution for boats/rafts (including Bamboo Raft and Pale Oak variants) avoids NoSuchFieldError on older APIs and removes CraftLegacy warnings.
• Classified as a Bukkit/Spigot plugin on Paper (paper-plugin.yml excluded from the JAR). Paper-only APIs replaced with Bukkit-safe calls.
• Docs: README, CHANGELOG and QA checklist updated (EN/ES).

Updater cadence:

• Background checks still run every 5 minutes. When a new version is first detected during runtime, a console WARN is printed immediately (once per version).
• Hourly reminder aligned to the top of each hour (00:00, 01:00, …) while outdated (respects updates.console-warn).
• Admin join: always notifies in chat (if enabled), never prints to console on player join.

What’s new (1.0.8)

Improvements and toggles:

• Customizable HUD: new config flags to show/hide parts of the sidebar and ActionBar.
  • racing.ui.scoreboard.show-position|show-lap|show-checkpoints|show-pitstops|show-name
  • racing.ui.actionbar.show-lap|show-checkpoints|show-pitstops|show-time
• Pitstops on HUD: when racing.mandatory-pitstops > 0, show “PIT A/B” on the sidebar and “Pit A/B” in the ActionBar (gated by the toggles above).
• Registration broadcast now includes the track name and the exact join command (racing.registration-announce).
• Sidebar order switched to “L/CP - Name”; removed centering/padding; names shown as-is (keeps leading '.' for Bedrock).
• Finish attempt message: crossing the finish line without all required checkpoints now shows a clear player message (in addition to the denial sound).
• Setup Wizard: new optional step “Mandatory pit stops” with quick buttons [0] [1] [2] [3].
• Setup command: /boatracing setup setpitstops <n> sets and persists racing.mandatory-pitstops.
• Results broadcast: podium medals 🥇/🥈/🥉 and rank colors for top‑3; keeps a penalty suffix when present; names rendered safely (keeps leading '.' for Bedrock).
• Wizard flow: if a default pit is already set in step 4, the wizard automatically advances to Checkpoints (team pits remain optional).
• Permissions: introduced wildcard boatracing.*. Admins still get absolutely all plugin permissions, now by explicit children under boatracing.admin to avoid circular inheritance.
• Tab-complete: players (non-admin) see join|leave|status under /boatracing race; admin-only verbs (open|start|force|stop) are suggested only to admins.

Updater:

• Console notice restored: a single WARN shortly after startup when outdated, plus an hourly reminder while still outdated (respects updates.console-warn).
• Admin join: when an admin joins, a quick check runs (throttled) and notifies them within seconds if a new update was just published.

What’s new (1.0.7)

Bugfixes and quality-of-life:

• Console update check noise removed: only a single WARN shortly after startup when you are outdated (respecting updates.console-warn). Periodic 5‑minute checks remain but are silent.

• Stability: network errors during update checks are logged at most once per server run.

Removal:

• The built‑in hiding of vanilla scoreboard numbers has been removed. If you want to hide the sidebar’s right‑side numbers, use an external plugin for now while a future built‑in approach is evaluated.

UI:

• Scoreboard redesigned: centered rows, compact “Name - L X/Y CP A/B” layout, rank colors (1=gold, 2=silver-ish, 3=bronze-ish), and your own name in green.

What’s new (1.0.6)

Improvements and tweaks:

• New sidebar leaderboard: the sidebar now shows the top‑10 positions in real time. Personal stats moved to the ActionBar.
• Personal HUD: your Lap, CP and Elapsed Time now appear in the ActionBar, updated every 0.5s.
• Sector and finish gaps: compact messages show your time gap vs the lap/finish leader at each checkpoint and at lap finish (and vs winner at race finish).
• Start lights jitter: optional random jitter added to the lights‑out delay via racing.lights-out-jitter-seconds.
• Live leaderboard: sidebar shows the top‑10 positions; your Lap/CP/Time are shown in the ActionBar (auto‑created on race start and cleaned up on stop/reset).
• Vanilla numbers hidden: the sidebar’s right‑side numbers are hidden natively when supported by your server (Paper 1.20.5+); no TAB plugin required.
• Layout polish: names are left‑aligned and the whole " - Lap X/Y [CP]" block is centered. Removed the decorative separator and arrow prefix, compact/dynamic padding based on the longest visible name. Long names are truncated with "..." and no extra padding is added after the ellipsis. Your own name is highlighted in green (no bold).
• FIN label: standardized to “FINISHED”.
• Display names: supports EssentialsX displayName and strips common rank wrappers like [Admin]/(Rank) at the start for cleaner alignment.

What’s new (1.0.5)

Fixes and polish:

• Team member persistence: team members are preserved across updates/reloads/startup; loading restores teams without re‑applying capacity limits.
• Setup pit command: /boatracing setup setpit [team] accepts team names with spaces when quoted (e.g., "/boatracing setup setpit "Toast Peace""); tab‑completion suggests quoted names when the input starts with a quote.
• Config defaults: on plugin update or /boatracing reload, new default keys are merged into your existing config.yml without overwriting your changes.
• Boat/Raft type: racers are mounted in their selected wood variant (including chest variants and rafts) instead of always OAK; works across API versions with a safe fallback.

What’s new (1.0.4)

• Team-specific pit areas: new unified command /boatracing setup setpit [team] sets the default pit when no team is provided, or the pit for a specific team when a team name is given. Tab‑completion suggests team names.
• Mandatory pitstops: new racing.mandatory-pitstops config (default 0). When > 0, racers must complete at least that many pit exits before they are allowed to finish; pitstops are counted on exiting the pit area and persist for the whole race.
• Wizard: Pit step updated to mention default pit vs per‑team pits and to guide the flow with clickable tips.
• Config updates: on plugin updates/reloads, new config.yml keys are merged into your existing file without overwriting your changes.
• Boat type: racers are mounted in their selected boat/raft wood variant (including chest variants) instead of always OAK; works across API versions with a safe fallback.
• Permissions: players can use join, leave, and status by default; only open|start|force|stop remain admin‑only. Removed extra runtime checks that could block players with permissive defaults.
• Boats: spawned boats now respect the player’s selected wood type robustly across API versions; falls back to OAK if the enum value is not available.
• Per‑player start slots and grid ordering: new setup commands /boatracing setup setpos <player> <slot|auto> and /boatracing setup clearpos <player>. On race start, players bound to a slot are placed there first; remaining racers are ordered by their best recorded race time on that track (fastest first), and racers without a time are placed last.
• Setup show: now also displays the presence of team‑specific pits and the number of custom start positions configured.
• Wizard (Starts): shows optional buttons for per‑player custom slots — setpos/clearpos/auto — and displays the number of custom slots configured.

What’s new (1.0.3)

• Admin Tracks GUI: manage multiple named tracks — Create and select, Delete (with confirmation), and Reapply selected. Requires boatracing.setup.

• Admin Race GUI: manage race lifecycle from a GUI — open/close registration, start/force/stop, quick-set laps, remove registrants, and handy setup tips.

• Terminology: “loaded” → “selected”; “pit lane” → “pit area”.

• All track configuration lives per‑track under plugins/BoatRacing/tracks/<name>.yml.

  • On startup, a legacy track.yml (if present) is migrated automatically to tracks/default.yml (with in‑game admin notice).

• Setup Wizard UX: concise, colorized, clickable. Adds a Laps step and an explicit Finish button; navigation buttons now use emojis (⟵, ℹ, ✖) and the blank line is placed at the top of the block for readability.

• Selection tool: built‑in wand (Blaze Rod). Left‑click = Corner A, right‑click = Corner B. Richer /boatracing setup selinfo diagnostics.

• Race commands now require a track argument: open|join|leave|force|start|stop|status <track>.

• Race lifecycle: “race stop” cancels registration and any running race for that track. Starts enforce unique grid slots, face forward (pitch 0), and auto‑mount racers into their selected boat. “force” and “start” use only registered participants.

• Tab‑completion: for race subcommands that take <track> (including status), it suggests existing track names.

• Admin Tracks GUI: after creating a track, sends a clickable tip to paste /boatracing setup wizard in chat.

• Messages remain English‑only; denial texts are hardcoded.

• Start lights + false starts: configure exactly 5 Redstone Lamps and enjoy an F1-style left-to-right light-up countdown (no redstone wiring needed). Moving forward during the countdown (false start) applies a configurable time penalty.

• Race permissions: split by subcommand. Players can join, leave, and status by default; admin actions open|start|force|stop require boatracing.race.admin (or boatracing.setup).

• Pit area and checkpoints are now optional. Track readiness only requires at least one start slot and a finish line; the wizard labels Pit area and Checkpoints as “(optional)” and lets you skip them.

• Removed “Save as…” from the Tracks GUI (create/select, delete, and reapply remain).

• New: live in‑race scoreboard per participant showing Lap, Checkpoints, and Elapsed Time.

• New: crossing the pit area counts as finish for lap counting once all lap checkpoints are completed (still applies pit penalty when enabled).

Features

• Teams GUI: list, view, member profile, leave confirmations; optional member Rename/Change color/Disband (config‑gated) with team notifications
• Member profile: boat type picker, racer number (1–99)
• Inventory-based UI with drag blocking and sound feedback
• Text input via AnvilGUI where needed (team names, racer number)
• Track setup: per‑racer start slots, finish line region, pit area region (optional), ordered checkpoints (optional)
• Grid order: custom start slots take priority; remaining racers are placed by best recorded time (fastest first), then racers with no time.
• Racing: lap counting with ordered checkpoints when configured, F1‑style pit area time penalty when configured, results by total time (race time + penalties)
• Live scoreboard: per-player sidebar tracking Lap, CP and Time (auto‑created on race start and cleaned up on stop/reset).
• Registration: admin opens a timed registration window; players join via command (must be in a team); force‑start supported
• Persistent storage: teams.yml, racers.yml, and per‑track files under plugins/BoatRacing/tracks/ (no central track.yml).
• Update notifications and bStats metrics (enabled by default)
• Admin GUI: manage teams (create/rename/color/add/remove/delete) and players (assign team, set racer number, set boat)
• Tracks GUI: manage named tracks (Create now auto-loads the new track and suggests starting the setup wizard).
• Race GUI: one-click controls for registration and race state, plus laps.
• Admin Race GUI: open/close registration, start/force/stop the race, adjust laps, and manage registrants.

Requirements

• Bukkit/Spigot/Paper/Purpur 1.19–1.21.11 (api-version: 1.19)
• Java 17+

Supported servers

• Purpur
• Paper
• Folia
• Spigot
• CraftBukkit Other Bukkit-compatible forks may work but aren’t officially tested. Not supported in this jar: Sponge and Forge hybrids (Mohist/Magma/Arclight).

Platform note:

• Sponge support would require a separate Sponge-specific port/jar.
• Velocity and BungeeCord are proxy platforms, so BoatRacing gameplay logic does not run there directly. A separate proxy companion plugin would be required for cross-server features.

Install

1. Download the latest BoatRacing.jar from Modrinth: /plugins/boatracing
2. Drop the jar into your plugins/ folder.
3. Start the server to generate config and data files.

Usage (overview)

• Use /boatracing teams to open the main GUI.
• Create a team and set your racer number and boat type (normal boats listed before chest variants).
• Admins can create teams, rename teams, change team color, and delete teams. Optionally, members can rename and change color from the Team GUI if enabled by config.
• Optionally, members can also disband their own team from the Team GUI if enabled by config.
• Configure a track (finish, starts, and optionally pit area and checkpoints) with the BoatRacing selection tool. Use the Tracks GUI to create/select the active track.
• Run a race with a public registration window or start immediately.

Track setup (built-in)

Use the BoatRacing selection tool to make cuboid selections (left-click = mark Corner A, right-click = mark Corner B). The tool item is a Blaze Rod named "BoatRacing Selection Tool".

• /boatracing setup help — lists setup commands
• /boatracing setup wand — gives you the BoatRacing selection tool
• /boatracing setup setfinish — set the finish line region from your current selection
• /boatracing setup setpit [team] — set the default pit area from your current selection, or the pit area for a specific team when a team is provided (tab‑complete team names)
• /boatracing setup setlobby — set the registration lobby to your current location and enable it in config
• /boatracing setup addcheckpoint — add a checkpoint in order (A → B → C …)
• /boatracing setup clearcheckpoints — remove all checkpoints
• /boatracing setup addlight — add the Redstone Lamp you’re looking at as a start light (exactly 5; order left→right)
• /boatracing setup clearlights — remove all start lights
• /boatracing setup addstart — add your current position as a start slot (order matters)
• /boatracing setup clearstarts — remove all start slots
• /boatracing setup setpos <player> <slot|auto> — bind a player to a specific start slot (1‑based) or use auto to remove the binding
• /boatracing setup clearpos <player> — remove a player’s custom start slot
• /boatracing setup setpitstops <n> — set the number of mandatory pitstops (0 disables the requirement)
• /boatracing setup show — show a summary of the current track config (includes team‑specific pits and count of custom start positions) (includes the active track name if saved/loaded from Admin Tracks GUI)
• /boatracing setup selinfo — debug info about your current selection

Guided setup (wizard)

• Start: /boatracing setup wizard (single entrypoint)
• Auto‑advance when possible. Navigation appears as clickable emojis on every step: ⟵ Back, ℹ Status, ✖ Cancel.

The wizard provides concise, colorized instructions with clickable actions. Steps: Starts → Finish → Start lights (5 required) → Pit area (optional) → Checkpoints (optional) → Mandatory pit stops (optional) → Laps → Done. The Starts step also includes optional buttons to set per‑player custom start slots (setpos/clearpos/auto) and shows the count of custom slots configured. The new “Mandatory pit stops” step shows your current value and quick options [0] [1] [2] [3]. On completion, the wizard prints a Summary that includes “Custom slots N”. It does not auto‑start races; the final prompt suggests opening registration for the currently selected track. Use /boatracing setup wand to get the selection tool.

Notes:

• Checkpoints (if configured) must be passed in order every lap before crossing finish; when none are configured, crossing finish counts the lap directly.
• Pit area (if configured) applies a time penalty when entered (configurable).
• Starts are used to place racers before the race (first N registered participants get the first N slots).

Racing and registration

• /boatracing race help — lists race commands
• /boatracing race open <track> — open a registration window on the selected track and broadcast it
• /boatracing race join <track> — join the registration (you must be in a team)
• /boatracing race leave <track> — leave the registration
• /boatracing race force <track> — force start immediately with the registered participants (requires at least one registered)
• /boatracing race start <track> — start now with the registered participants (requires registration)
• /boatracing race stop <track> — stop and announce results; also cancels registration if still open
• /boatracing race status <track> — current race/registration status for that track

Race logic highlights:

• With checkpoints configured, laps count only after collecting all checkpoints in order; if no checkpoints are set, crossing finish counts the lap.
• Entering the pit area (when configured) adds a fixed time penalty to the racer’s total time, and also counts as finish for lap progression when the lap’s checkpoints are done.
• Mandatory pitstops: when racing.mandatory-pitstops > 0, racers must complete at least that many pit exits during the race before they are allowed to finish.
• If a racer attempts to finish without the required checkpoints for the lap, a clear message is sent (denial sound also plays).
• Moving forward before the countdown ends (false start) adds a fixed time penalty.
  • You can disable pit and false-start penalties via config flags.
• Results are broadcast sorted by total time = elapsed + penalties.
• The broadcast highlights the podium with 🥇/🥈/🥉 and rank colors for the top‑3.
• On start, racers are placed on unique start slots facing forward (pitch 0) and auto‑mounted into their selected boat type. Grid priority: custom slot bindings first; then by best recorded time on the track (fastest first); racers without a recorded time go last.
• If 5 start lights are configured, a left-to-right lamp countdown runs (1 per second) before the race starts; lamps are lit via block data (no redstone power required).
• Total laps come from configuration (racing.laps) and/or the track’s saved setting; open and start don’t accept a laps argument.

Tab–completion

• Root: teams, race, setup, reload, version, admin (filtered by permissions)
• Teams: create, rename, color, join, leave, boat, number, confirm, cancel (rename/color are admin‑only via command; GUI for members can be enabled via config). Disband is not exposed as a player command; it’s a GUI action when enabled.
• Setup: help, wand, wizard, addstart, clearstarts, setfinish, setpit, setlobby, addcheckpoint, clearcheckpoints, addlight, clearlights, setpos, clearpos, show, selinfo
• setpos suggests player names, plus auto and slot numbers; clearpos suggests player names.
• Race: non‑admins see join, leave, and status; admins also see open, start, force, stop. When a subcommand expects <track>, tab‑completion lists existing track names.
• color lists all DyeColors
• boat lists allowed boat types (normal first, then chest variants)
• join suggests existing team names

Admin commands and GUI

Admins (permission boatracing.admin) can:

• Open Admin GUI: /boatracing admin

  • Teams view: list and open teams, and “Create team” button (Anvil input for name; creates a team without initial members).
  • Team view: Rename, Change color (click any dye to open picker), Add member (by name), Remove member (click head), Delete team.
  • If enabled by config, team members will also see a Disband button in their Team view; otherwise it’s hidden.
  • Players view: Assign team / remove from team, Set racer number (1–99), Set boat type.
    • Tracks view (requires boatracing.setup): create named tracks (Create auto‑loads and suggests the setup wizard), load an existing track, delete with confirmation, and reapply selected.
    • Race view: open/close registration, start/force/stop, quick‑set laps (including custom), and remove registrants.

• Command alternatives:

  • /boatracing admin team create <name> [color] [firstMember]
  • /boatracing admin team delete <name>
  • /boatracing admin team rename <old> <new>

  • allow-team-color (default false) — when true, members can change their team color from the Team GUI (commands remain admin‑only)
  • allow-team-disband (default false) — when true, members can disband their own team from the Team GUI. The Disband icon is hidden when not allowed.
  • allow-set-boat (default true)
  • allow-set-number (default true) Denial messages are hardcoded in English; they are not configurable.
• bstats.enabled: true|false (bStats plugin-id is fixed)
• updates.enabled: enable update checks

• racing.lights-out-delay-seconds (since 1.0.6): delay between all 5 start lights lit and “lights out”/GO (seconds, default 1.0)

Updates & Metrics

• Update checks: Modrinth project. A console WARN is printed on first detection (startup or when a new version appears during runtime) and an hourly reminder at 00:00, 01:00, … while outdated (respects updates.console-warn). Admin join shows an in‑game chat notice (if enabled) and does not print to console.
• Background: checks every 5 minutes; if a new version is detected mid‑run, the console WARN prints immediately (once per version).
• bStats: enabled by default; opt‑out via the global bStats config (plugin id hardcoded)

Storage

• plugins/BoatRacing/teams.yml
• plugins/BoatRacing/racers.yml
• Per‑track files: plugins/BoatRacing/tracks/<name>.yml (managed via Admin Tracks GUI). Includes: starts, finish, pitlane, teamPits, checkpoints, start lights, and now customStartSlots and bestTimes (per‑player).

Legacy migration: if a legacy plugins/BoatRacing/track.yml is found on startup, it is migrated to plugins/BoatRacing/tracks/default.yml (or default_N.yml) and the old file is removed when possible. Admins with boatracing.setup get an in‑game notice.

Compatibility

• Bukkit/Spigot/Paper/Purpur 1.19–1.21.11; Java 17+
• English‑only messages with vanilla‑styled titles and lore

Notes

• Leaderless teams: players can create and leave teams; admins handle deletion and member management. Team rename/color can optionally be enabled for members via config (GUI only).
• Leaving a team as the last member deletes the team automatically.
• Denial messages for protected actions are hardcoded in English.

Build (developers)

• Maven project; produces BoatRacing.jar shaded. Run mvn -DskipTests clean package.
