Loot Hunt
by anzenxx
Loot Hunt is a team-based mini-game for Fabric in which teams race to find items that are randomly chosen for each round.
What it does
Players are split into teams at the start of a match. Every team receives the same randomly selected target item in each round, drawn from items obtainable in survival. The first team to obtain the item earns the most placement points, and the team with the highest total when the match ends wins. Rounds, optional round time limits and a custom target item can be set before a match starts, and a countdown runs before the first round.
A live in-game HUD shows the current target and the standings while a round is in progress. The mod tracks each round and keeps a history of completion times, so a server can look back at how quickly each team found its items. Team spawn positions can be spread out with a configurable teleport radius, so teams begin the match apart from one another.
Loot Hunt is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric only, with builds covering 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Random target items
Each round picks an item that can be obtained in survival, so the target changes between rounds.
Placement scoring
Points are awarded by finishing position on each round's item, and the fastest team to obtain it scores most.
Custom target item
An optional setting lets a host choose the target item in place of a random pick.
Live HUD and history
A live in-game display shows the target and standings, and completion times are recorded for each round.
