About this project

What does Death Swap add?

DESCRIPTION

This my version of the deathswap minigame created by SethBling and popularized by dream! In this minigame, players swap positions with each other every 5 minutes, and must use this mechannic to kill the others by environmental damage, by jumping into lava right before a swap for example. You only get to know when a swap is about to happen 5 seconds prior, so you must react quickly!

INSTALLATION/SETUP GUIDE

generate a new world, put the zip file in the datapacks folder located at:

world/datapacks

(or put the mod in the mods folder of the server)

execute /reload and run /function deathswap:start to begin! you can also run /function deathswap:config before starting to change settings according to your needs. The settings with their default values are given below:

Permanent fire resistance false(0) If players get permanent fire resistance
Max death count 5 Maximum number of deaths before a player is eliminated and put into spectator mode
