FAQ
Where did MinigameAreaVolume go?
It was removed. The mod now uses normal Hytale trigger volumes for areas and interactions. Create a Hytale trigger volume, shape it around the arena, name or tag it for the minigame, and attach minigame trigger conditions/effects.
Why remove custom minigame volume types?
They duplicated Hytale's trigger-volume system. The current approach is closer to Hytale's built-in style: use the engine's volume system and register only the minigame-specific conditions/effects that the engine did not already have.
Why is MinigameId a dropdown now?
MinigameCorePlugin registers MinigameDefinition as a trigger-volume asset source and registers MinigameId fields against it. The trigger-volume editor can then show loaded minigames instead of requiring a typed string.
Why is my minigame not in the dropdown?
Check:
- The JSON is under
Server/Minigames/. - The filename matches the
Id. - The asset loaded without codec errors.
- The server was restarted or the asset was reloaded after adding the file.
Can I still start games with commands?
Yes.
/minigame enable My_Game
/minigame start My_Game
Commands are useful for testing and admin control. In-world game flow should use Hytale trigger volumes with minigame trigger effects.
Can two minigames run at the same time?
Yes. Active runtimes are keyed by runtime ID, and one minigame can have multiple active runtimes on different discovered maps or variants.
How do I award score from a volume?
Attach ModifyPlayerScore or ModifyTeamScore to a normal Hytale trigger volume. Add PlayerInMinigame if the effect should only run for players already participating.
My condition has an optional PlayerId. Should I fill it?
Usually leave it blank for player-caused trigger-volume events. The effect or condition will try to resolve the triggering player from the trigger context. Use an explicit PlayerId only for non-player-driven logic.
