Speed Build

This is a pure server-side mod that provides functionalities for a customizable speed build game.

In a speed build, players compete to memorize the example and rebuild the structure in a limited time. The more consistent the player's build is with the example, the higher score the player gets. If their build matches perfectly, they get a score of 1.0; if they build nothing, they get a score of 0.0. It is also better to complete the build as fast as possible.

Basic Gameplay

Only players with numbers can participate in the speed build. The number of a player can take any integer value. You can learn about how to register a number under the "Commands" title below. Player and numbers are one-to-one mapped, that is, each player can have exactly one number, and no two players can share the same number.

The game area can be divided into the example region and the build regions. There is one example region, and each player has a build region. The build regions are sorted by the numbers of the players in natural order. The example build should be built in the example region, and the players should build in their own build regions. After the start of a speed build, the example region is cleared and an exact copy of the example build would appear in every build region. Materials it would need to build the example build would be given to each player. The "memorize time" will then be allowed to pass. Players are able to break and place blocks during this stage.

When the countdown finishes, the build regions would be cleared. A new timer would count down from "build time". In this stage, players are supposed to complete the build in their build regions with the materials given as accurate and as fast as possible. If a player completes the build exactly during the countdown, the player "completes" the game and a message would be announced to all players.

After the build countdown finishes, or every player completes their build, the example build would be pasted back to the example region, and the scores of the players would be calculated according how much proportion of their build is consistent with the example build and the time they spent. Player ranked based on their level of consistency first, then based on the time they finished.

Analysis Functionality

Besides traditional speed building functionalities, this mod also provides an analysis functionality, which allows you to analyze the build in a build region. More specifically, it tells you which blocks are correct, wrong, redundant, missing or in a wrong state by highlighting them using different blocks (different colors of stained-glass blocks by default) in the analysis region.
