MissileWarsX (or MwX) is an open source implementation of the legendary MissileWars mini-game map originally created by SethBling and Cubehamster. This plugin offers a refined experience that is true to the original game, with features closely aligned with the technical and competitive community.

This repo contains the second iteration of MissileWarsX, designed to be more portable and easy-to-maintain. The older version is still available in the Releases, and in the legacy branch. Many of the features have been stripped. If you wish something to be added back in, feel free to create an issue.

Getting Started

Public Test Server

If you wish to try out MwX without installing it, you can play on the public testing server: mwx.encodeous.ca. Join with Minecraft 1.21.11

CAUTION: Do not install MissileWarsX on your existing Minecraft server. It may destroy or alter your existing worlds.

Please install MwX on a fresh server, as specified below:

Download the latest build of MissileWarsX from the Releases.

MwX requires Paper version 1.21.11.

Here are a list of plugins required to run MwX:

• ProtocolLib (SpigotMC)
• FastAsyncWorldEdit (FAWE)

After collecting all the necessary dependencies, copy the config from the recommended-config folder to the root of your server's directory. These settings are recommended to provide a smooth and consistent experience.

That's all! You can play around with the plugin config, or add new missiles/maps if you like!

Main Features

• MwX sticks to the classic MissileWars experience, with 2 teams, 5 different types of missiles (see below), fireballs, arrows and shields.
• Explosions and Fireballs are traced, providing credits to those who carried!
• Ties where both portals are exploded within 5 seconds are recorded.
• Maps resets are seamless. You do not need to disconnect from the server.
• Sound effects for game events can be tweaked in the config
• Items, missiles, and maps are all configurable in the config
• Blocks can have configurable break speeds, can be tweaked in the config
