About this project

What does Loot Chest add?

Overview

Loot Chest Plugin brings an exciting reward system to your Hytale server! Players can open virtual loot chests with a satisfying casino-style roulette animation that scrolls through potential rewards before landing on their prize.

Server administrators have full control over:

  • Which items appear in each rarity tier
  • How many chests each player can open
  • Drop chances for every reward

Perfect for minigames, survival servers, reward systems, or any server looking to add an engaging loot mechanic!


Features

Roulette Animation

  • Smooth scrolling animation showing 9 item slots
  • Items gradually slow down before stopping on the final reward
  • Satisfying sound effects during the spin
  • Clean custom UI that doesn't interfere with gameplay

Five Rarity Tiers

Each tier has its own separate loot table with customizable rewards:

Tier Color Description
Common Gray Basic items, higher drop rates
Uncommon Green Intermediate items
Rare Blue Less common items
Epic Purple Valuable items
Legendary Gold The rarest and most valuable rewards

Player Balance System

  • Each player has a personal balance of loot chests per rarity
  • Balances persist across server restarts
  • Admins can give or remove chests from players
  • Players can check their own balance anytime

Admin Panel

  • Beautiful in-game UI for configuring loot tables
  • Add, edit, or remove rewards with a few clicks
  • Search through all available items with the built-in search bar
  • Set precise drop chances (percentage-based system)
  • View all player balances in a dedicated admin panel

Persistent Storage

  • All configurations saved to JSON files
  • Player balances saved per-player (UUID-based)
  • Automatic saving on server shutdown
  • Easy to backup and transfer between servers
