BattleRoyale Controller
by rtxlukeval
BattleRoyale Controller is a Forge minigame controller for running battle royale and deathmatch matches from menu commands, with teams, voting and match settings.
What it does
A host opens the menu commands to create teams, let players join or move between them, lock teams so nobody can switch, and kick players from the queue. Matches can be started as a battle royale or a team deathmatch, and a free-for-all toggle moves everyone into solo play. An admin view shows the running match, and a map can be picked by vote or forced to start directly. Players who join while a match is near its start can be queued, and a join during the countdown shortens the wait to 30 seconds.
Each match is set up through presets: the loot table, the zone preset and the spawn boxes, with vehicle spawn radius adjustable. Total run time defaults to 900 seconds, the kill limit to 100 kills, the celebration after a match to 10 seconds and the vote to 60 seconds, and respawn can be switched on or off. The controller is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Its source is not open; it is released under the MIT License.
Key features
Team creation and locking
Teams can be created, joined, renamed by choice of members and locked so players cannot change team mid-match.
Map voting
Players vote for the next map, each vote changes the tally, and the countdown drops by 5 seconds once players have voted.
Match presets
Loot tables, zone presets and spawn range boxes can be edited, created and toggled per match, and vehicle spawn radius can be changed.
Match timing and limits
Run time, kill limit, celebration duration and vote time are all configurable, with defaults of 900 seconds, 100 kills, 10 seconds and 60 seconds.
