Trivia

Changelog

1.2.5

• Hey look at that. Turns out this plugin is compatible with 1.7.*
• Turns out the Trivia Host is now TOO harsh and won't listen to a 2nd word you have to say.
  • That's been fixed. He'll consider everything you say until you get it wrong.
  • If the answer is 'Notch', he'll accept 'notch', 'NOTCH', 'Notchus The God', but not 'God Notch'.
  • Logically if he accepts 'Notchus the God' AND 'God Notch', then every 'True/False?' question can be answered with 'TrueFalse' and be correct.
  • That's why he'll only accept 'Notchus the God', NOT 'God Notch'
• The Trivia Host had a problem where he'd accept answers after the buzzer had gone off.
  • Management have given the Trivia Host a refresh of the rules and he won't be doing that again.

1.2

• A whole heap of bug fixes
  • Fixed an issue where multiple questions could be asked at once
  • The Trivia Host was getting too much responsibility, which was causing them and participants headaches
  • The Trivia Host was too generous in accepting answers. After a chat with Management, they're no longer as lenient
  • The Trivia Host stops asking questions when everyone leaves
  • Fixed an issue where the timeout between questions was reduced by getting the Host to ask multiple questions at once
  • Fixed an issue where a player would sometimes be asked the same question twice when they joined the game and the game started at the same time
  • Fixed the Trivia starting messages to be more consistent with what is actually going on with player numbers
  • Fixed an issue where weird stuff could be made into a question. The parsing should be better now
• Added question categories. See the questions demo page for details on how to use these. These are optional. If you don't provide a category, it just goes in the 'General' category.
• Added voting for categories.
• Added 'Minimum Votes' config option (default is 5). This is the minimum number of votes that need to be cast to change category
• Added permissions for viewing/voting on categories. If you don't like the idea of categories, just turn off the permissions trivia.list, trivia.vote
• A number of friendly error messages have been introduced (both in console and in game)
• Some existing error messages are now more user friendly
• Turned off some console messages that shouldn't be in the release version

1.0

• First release to general public
• Questions can be added by altering/adding text files under /plugins/trivia/questions/
