Kits

Kit rules

Every toggle, number and attribute on a kit, with its default and what actually enforces it.

The rules are stored as JSON on the kit row and edited from /epc → Manage Kits → a kit → Kit rules. Most of them become policies on the arena's region for the length of the match; the rest are enforced by the plugin's own match listener.

Times are typed, not clicked

Every duration on this screen is asked for as a length of time — 250ms, 3s, 1m30s — instead of being clicked up one second at a time. Anything the plugin writes back reads the same way, so 0s means off wherever a rule takes a time.

Building

Rule	Default	What it does
`build`	off	Players may place blocks
`block-break`	off	Players may break blocks
`interact`	on	Players may interact with blocks
`player-build-only`	off	Only blocks players placed may be broken
`disappearing-blocks-delay`	`0`	Seconds before a placed block vanishes. `0` disables it.
`re-give-blocks`	off	The block is handed back when it disappears

Adventure mode is derived, not configured

A player is put in adventure mode when build, block-break and player-build-only are all off, and in survival otherwise. There is no game-mode setting.

Block placing and breaking are also blocked inside the arena's spawn protection and extra-region protection radii, regardless of these rules.

Items

Rule	Default	What it does
`item-drop`	on	Players may drop items
`item-pickup`	on	Players may pick items up
`ender-pearl-cooldown`	`0`	Cooldown between pearls. `0` uses the server default.
`golden-apple-cooldown`	`0`	Cooldown on both golden apple types, in seconds. `0` disables it.

Both cooldowns are in seconds

Unlike hit-delay just below, these two are seconds, not ticks — 1 is about the vanilla pearl. Older builds mislabelled the pearl one as ticks in the rules menu; the value it stored was always seconds, so an existing kit needs no change.

Damage and health

Rule	Default	What it does
`pvp`	on	Players may damage each other
`fall-damage`	on	Fall damage applies
`disabled-damage`	off	All damage is off
`health-regeneration`	on	Natural regeneration
`food-decreasing`	on	Hunger drains
`hit-delay`	`20`	The player's `maximumNoDamageTicks` — the invulnerability window after a hit, in ticks

hit-delay is genuinely in ticks. 20 is vanilla; lower it for combo kits.

Win conditions

Rule	Default	What it does
`hits-to-win`	`0`	A player who has received this many hits is eliminated. `0` disables it.
`points-to-win`	`-1`	Points needed to win. `-1` disables it.
`kills-give-points`	on	An elimination awards a point
`revive-time`	`0`	Seconds an eliminated player spectates before respawning. `0` disables revives.

Hits-to-win counts hits taken, not dealt

The sidebar's %hits% is your own hits received, and %opp_hits% is your opponent's. A boxing kit is hits-to-win: 100 and nothing else.

Points and revives together are what turn a 1v1 into a first-to-N: an elimination scores, the loser is revived after revive-time seconds, and the arena optionally regenerates between points.

Movement and objectives

Rule	Default	What it does
`iron-plate-checkpoints`	off	Heavy weighted pressure plates set a checkpoint. Dying or leaving the arena returns you there instead of eliminating you.
`regenerate-after-point`	off	The arena is restored from its schematic between points

Checkpoints are per-plate and one-shot: standing on the same block again does not re-arm it, but a new plate does. They reset at the start of every round and every point.

Starting state

Rule	Default	What it does
`start-health`	`-1`	Health the player starts with. `-1` means full.
`start-food`	`-1`	Food level. `-1` means 20.
`start-saturation`	`-1`	Saturation. `-1` means 20.

Attributes

Set from Kit attributes. -1 on any of them means "leave the vanilla value alone".

Attribute	Vanilla
`max-health`	20
`attack-damage`	1
`movement-speed`	0.1
`knockback-resistance`	0

Attributes are applied as base values at the start of a match and again after every point reset.

Potion effects

Set from Potion effects. Each entry is an effect name, an amplifier and a duration in seconds; a duration of -1 lasts the whole match.

Every existing effect on the player is stripped first, so what a kit grants is exactly what the player has.

Special conditions

The last block on the rules screen. Eight triggers, three actions — see its own page.
