Features
The plugin will say questions you have created, and give a prize for the first player who find the answer ! But beware, malus can also be given for those who give a wrong answer.
A lot of things are configurables: the prizes, malus, time between two answers, delay to answer, propositions…
NB: The items prize can be modded items
Create a question :
Type /qtc and follow the steps.
You need the permission questionstime.command.create.
Configuration
The files are created during the plugin launch. If you want to reset a configuration file, just delete it and relaunch the server.

Ideas to implemented
Adding the author of a question
Ask question manually: a question is asked if a player with a permission type a command. Can be useful during an event.
Multiple winners with different prizes according to their position
Execute commands as prize or malus
General statistics
Statistics per player
When someone found an answer, he can’t respond again if the question is re-asked
Multiple answers
Reload config
Change question information (prizes, time between two answers…) through a command
Repeat a question only if all the other questions have been asked
Show the current asked question to the players who connected after
I just checked and you’re right o_0
I don’t know what happened…
I will release the 1.0.4 with the “create question” command soon, if everything goes as planned. I will keep an eye on it and deleted this two useless versions
And for a MC 1.10.2 / Sponge 5.2 version, I will see, it depends of the changes to made.
And a last little thing :
Do I made English mistakes in the description ? I’m French, and I can make simple mistakes without my noticing…
Salut à toi Nocturne 123 et merci de configurer ce Plug-in qui m’a l’air génial ! Malheureusement, la dernière version ne corrige toujours pas ce problème de dossier config vide ce qui rend l’utilisation du Plug-in impossible. Penses-tu pouvoir y remédier? J’ai un serveur Sponge/Forge 1.10.2 (5.2.0) Merci à toi
Le problème vient du fait qu’avec la version de 5.2.0 de Sponge, une méthode n’est pas présente, d’où le fait que le fichier de config soit vide. Je suis entrain de le rendre compatible avec cette version. Par contre, elle n’aura pas la commande pour créer des questions sans avoir à toucher au fichier de config.
The versions 1.0.0 and 1.0.2 are only compatible with the version 7.2.0 of Sponge. I’m currently making it compatible with the version 5.2.0.
Sorry if the update take a long time to be release, but I had a website to create as a homework, so everytimes I opened my computer, it was to create this website. But I finally gave it back !
The compability with the version 5 of Sponge (Minecraft 1.10.2) is done.
I just need to finish and fix bugs of the question creator.
I fix a bug on the way (If you create a question with a prize/malus and you don’t set money or items, and this question he’s said, the next question is never said).
A new version has been released for QuestionsTime, it is available for download here.
Version 1.1.1
Tested with Sponge API 5 (MC 1.10.2) and Sponge API 7 (MC 1.12.2)
Added
Message.conf
You can modify the messages displayed by the plugin to customize or translate them.
Timer
You can add a delay to answer the question. To do this, add the line “timer” in a question node and write how long players can answer. Note : it’s not in ticks but in seconds, the minimum is 10 seconds and the maximum 23 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds.
Bug
If a player or everybody are creating a question and a question is asked, the plugin stops working.
Change
In the Question Creator system, the answer for the last question is not longer “yes” or “no” but “start” and “save”.
If you have an idea or you want to an idea to be made before the others, tell me !
I’ve corrected some spelling mistakes and made a french version of the main page.
Also, I need you :
If an item have a custom name or/and a lore, the symbol “[+]” is added. I’d like to know if you want me to add the
possibility to change this symbol in the message.conf, and if the custom name and/or the lore is shown if you point
your mouse only at the symbol or for the whole sentence.

Thanks !
Hey,
I know it’s been 6 months I didn’t give news, but I come just to say that the plugin isn’t dead.
I was almost finish the new version when my hard disk dead, and I lost every motivation to continue. And I had a big test after that. But now, I’m in a server projet and my motivation comes back.
I don’t know when the new version will bring out, but I’m here if you have any question or if you found a bug.
Also, I see that the page in french was deleted, I don’t know if I will re-upload it.
EDIT: Ha, and the API used will be the seventh. Bye bye version 5 !
I tried and he seems to have a bug with the config file. I fixed it, but I have some problem to publish this new release
EDIT: I need to wait 3 days for publish the plugin
A new version has been released for QuestionsTime, it is available for download here.
Version 1.1.3
Tested with Sponge API 7 (MC 1.12.2)
Message changement
The message.conf file follow now HOCON format. I recommend you to do a copy and delete your file to let the plugin generate the new version, and replace the messages.
The path question.end.timer is now question.timer.end
The path reward.prize.announce is now reward.announce
Added
You can give item with a custom name and lore. See the example in the default config. If a item have a custom name, his name will be display instead of his type in the prize announcement.
The number of proposition of a question can go up to 127.
You can add a delay between each answer with time-between-answer.
If you have an idea or you want to an idea to be made before the others, tell me !
