Zone Conquest: Tactical Battles

Teams are built from vanilla scoreboard teams, and the mod reads a team from its name: a name containing red or blue, in any letter case, becomes that side, and every other team counts as neutral. Standing inside a capture zone moves its progress toward the team of the players present, and more allies on a zone speed the capture. When both sides hold equal numbers inside, progress pauses, so the objective rewards teamwork, positioning and control of space more than raw combat.

The objective runs as a match. Red works through the capture points in order: a point stays out of reach until Red already holds the one before it. A captured point is locked, so Blue cannot recapture it, and Blue must hold its positions until the match timer expires. Each point shows one shared progress bar that runs from Red through Neutral to Blue, and while a match is running, progress on a point stays frozen whenever no players are inside its zone.

Server owners control the mode. Admins with operator rights, which means permission level 2, handle most of the control actions, including location management. The mod supports automatic starting: if a match was started before the world closed, the state is remembered, and after a server restart a match returns to the IDLE state and starts again automatically with the previously saved duration. The mod runs on the server only, and Cloth Config API is required.
