Blockout

Blockout is an open-source forge mod that provides a lockout minigame for servers.

Please contact vincor_#7498 on Discord if you have any inquiries.

 

IMPORTANT: This mod must be played on a server with the mod. It is not possible to play Blockout on a singleplayer world.

 

What is Blockout?
An open source version of Smallant's lockout mod.

The game will randomly generate 25 tasks, a full list of these tasks can be found here on the wiki.

The goal of the game is complete tasks before the opposing team does. A team wins when it completes 13 goals.

 

How to Play?

To play, you must have at least 2 players.
To assign a player to a team, type in the command /lockoutTeam <player> <team>. A player must be assigned to team 1 or 2, or 0 if you wish to remove them from play.
Once teams are assigned, you can start the game with /lockoutStart

To view the tasks, open the GUI with \, but this keybind can be changed anytime in the settings

Tasks can only be completed by one team, and the game ends once a team completes 13 tasks

 

Commands

• /lockoutStart - Starts the game and generates new tasks
• /lockoutTeam <player> <team> - Assigns player to team (<team> must be 0, 1, 2 | team 0 means the player has no team)
• /lockoutDifficulty <easy> <medium> <hard> <expert> - Assigns the probability of each difficulty being generated. The default probabilities are 35% easy, 40% medium, 25% hard and 10% expert
