Capture The Dragon Egg
by Coolkc456
Capture The Dragon Egg is a Forge minigame in which players compete to hold a dragon egg and collect timed rewards while others track them.
What it does
Players compete to capture the dragon egg, and a holder receives recurring rewards while carrying it. Rewards can be item stacks or vanilla potion effects with set amounts and durations, and modded items and potions are supported. Holders cannot throw or place the egg, and other players can see who holds it through a glowing effect, an action bar showing the holder's name and coordinates, and real-time tracking.
Every part of the game is controlled with commands that require operator rights or creative mode. Server owners can enable or disable the mod, toggle rewards, potions, glow and the action bar, list the current settings, and add, set or remove up to three item and potion rewards per entry. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.18.2 and 1.19.2, with 1.7 for 1.19.2 as the latest file, under All rights reserved.
