OneBlock - Complete Guide

OneBlock is a unique Minecraft plugin that completely changes the survival concept. Instead of an infinite world, the player starts on a single block that gradually reveals its resources as it's broken.

Getting Started

To begin, you need to create a special world using the command /mv create OneBlock normal -g Oneblock. The administrator sets the starting point with /ob set, after which players can join their islands via /ob join or simply /ob. Each new island is automatically generated 100 blocks away from the previous one, but this distance can be configured, for example: /ob set 300.

Main Features

The plugin offers a rich set of commands for customizing gameplay:

• Auto Join - /ob autojoin true allows players to automatically go to their islands when entering the world
• Territory Protection - /ob protection true prevents players from leaving the island boundaries
• Borders - /ob border true creates individual borders for each player
• Block Physics - /ob physics false disables gravity for blocks like sand and gravel
• Invitation System - /ob invite 'player_name' and /ob kick 'player_name' for managing island access

Level System

The level system is calculated using the formula: 16 + current_level × multiplier. The multiplier is configured with /ob lvl_mult 5. Players can track their progress through a progress bar that displays the current level and remaining blocks until the next level.

Appearance Customization

The progress bar is fully customizable: you can change colors for each level separately, set custom text using placeholders. The command /ob Progress_bar color RED changes the color, and /ob Progress_bar settext %OB_lvl% lvl now. Need block to next lvl %OB_need_to_lvl_up% configures the displayed text.

PlaceholderAPI Integration

The plugin supports numerous placeholders for integration with other systems:

• %OB_lvl% - player's current level
• %OB_next_lvl% - next level
• %OB_break_on_this_lvl% - number of blocks broken at current level
• %OB_need_to_lvl_up% - blocks needed until next level
• %OB_percent% - level completion percentage
• %OB_top_1_name% and %OB_top_1_lvl% - leaderboard information

Custom Blocks Support

OneBlock is fully compatible with popular custom block plugins:

• ItemsAdder - native ID support in blocks.yml
• Oraxen - direct block ID usage
• Mods and other plugins - ability to spawn custom blocks through configuration commands

Usage example:

'/setblock %d %d %d IC2:blockOreCopper'
'/setblock %d %d %d IC2:blockOreTin'
'/setblock %d %d %d IC2:blockOreUran'

Additional Features

• Progress Reset - /ob IDreset allows starting fresh
