Ice Boating

ice boating is designed to provide a simple yet premium racing experience on ice tracks, featuring real-time HUDs, interactive setup wizards, and a robust checkpoint system.

Key Features

• Stopwatch HUD: Real-time Actionbar display showing Speed (m/s), Facing direction, and precise Elapsed Time (ms).

• Checkpoint System: Dynamic respawn points. If a player falls off the track, they return to their last passed checkpoint instead of the start line.

• Competitive Duels: Challenging other players with side-by-side spawns to prevent boat clipping and glitches.

• Leaderboards: Persistent storage of the top 10 fastest times for every track.

• Interactive Setup Wizard: A step-by-step guided setup for admins using clickable chat buttons.

• Boat Protection: Automatic boat spawning and cleanup.

• Fully Configurable: Every message, prefix, and HUD element is customizable in config.yml.

How It Works

1. Admins use the Setup Wizard to define a track.
2. Players use /ice play <track> to enter a solo session.
3. Upon starting, a Boat is automatically spawned and the player is mounted.
4. The Stopwatch HUD activates instantly.
5. As players move, the plugin checks if they are on the "Ice" path.
6. If they fall off, they are teleported back to the last checkpoint reached.
7. Upon crossing the Finish line, the time is recorded and checked against the Leaderboard.
