About this project

What does Custom Item Command & Reward add?

Hand Crates (TRUST)

https://github.com/kliti72/HandCrates---Reward-in-You-Hand

Ever wanted to turn that old chest sitting in your spawn area into something players actually get excited about opening? Hand Crates lets you transform any block in your Hytale world into a fully customizable physical crate — design the rewards, set the look, and hand them out, all without ever leaving the game or touching a config file.

Whether you're building a vote rewards system, a dungeon loot chest, or a seasonal event crate, Hand Crates gives you a fast, intuitive in-game workflow to make it happen in minutes.

Why Hand Crates?

Setting up reward crates usually means digging through plugin configs, restarting your server, and hoping you didn't typo an item ID. Hand Crates throws that out the window. Everything — from picking the block type to filling rewards via drag & drop — happens through simple commands and an in-game GUI. Make a change, hit reload, and it's live instantly.

Features

  • Create a crate from any in-game block type
  • Create custom items with attached commands
  • In-game GUI editor to fill crate rewards (drag & drop items)
  • Custom display name and lore with color tag support, for crates AND items
  • Give crates or items directly to players via command
  • List, edit, delete crates and items anytime
  • Console-executed commands option for items
  • Hot reload — no server restart needed

Example: Creating a Custom Hand Reward Crate

Here's an example of setting up a "Dungeon" crate from scratch — creating it, customizing how it looks, and configuring the rewards:

# Create Custom Crates Reward
/handcrates --create=Dungeon --blocktype=Furniture_Desert_Chest_Small

# Give Custom Crates Reward Item
/handcrates --give=Dungeon --player=kliTi2000

# Set Item Name Display
/handcrates --edit=Dungeon --display="<red> Vote <bold> Key </bold> </red>"

# Set Lore Example
/handcrates --edit=Dungeon --lore="<green> This Crates give you reward of doungeon </green>"

# Set Reward (opens in-game GUI editor)
/handcrates --edit=Dungeon

Once you run that last command, the in-game reward editor pops up, letting you drag and drop exactly what you want players to win:

And here's a look at a finished crate in action on a live server:

Example: Creating a Custom Item with Command

Create item with attached command
/handcrates --create=VoteKey --blocktype=Item_Small_Key --command="give {player} example_id"

Set item display name
/handcrates --edit=VoteKey --display="<gold> Vote Key </gold>"
Set item lore

/handcrates --edit=VoteKey --lore="<gray> Redeem this at spawn </gray>"
Make it console-executed (bypasses player permissions)

/handcrates --edit=VoteKey --console=true
Edit command later

/handcrates --edit=VoteKey --command="give {player} example_id 1"
Give the item to a player

/handcrates --give=VoteKey --player=kliTi2000
