CountdownModule

CountdownModule provides a visual countdown that is automatically displayed before the game starts. All of BlueDragon’s minigames use it to handle the pregame state. The countdown starts automatically when enough players have joined, and stops automatically if enough players leave during the countdown to go below the minimum threshold.

Usage

Import the module:

import com.bluedragonmc.server.module.minigame.CountdownModule

Use the module in your game’s initialize function:

use(CountdownModule(threshold = 2, allowMoveDuringCountdown = true, countdownSeconds = 10))

Now, when the player count matches or exceeds the threshold, a countdown will automatically begin that lasts countdownSeconds seconds. If allowMoveDuringCountdown is false, players will not be able to move during the countdown, but they will still be able to look around.

When the countdown reaches 0, the module will call GameStartEvent, change the game state to INGAME, and display a “GO!” title on the screen.
