Prerequisites:
- Java 17 or higher
- DecentHolograms (Required for all hologram functionality)
Quick Start:
- Download the SkyDrops JAR from SpigotMC.
- Place the JAR into your server's
plugins/directory. - Restart the server.
- Configure global settings via
/skydrops settings. - Define airdrop contents via
/skydrops edit-drops.
SkyDrops features a complete GUI-based settings editor, eliminating the need for manual file editing. All core parameters, including drop announcement times and scheduled intervals, are configurable in real-time.
To secure an airdrop's contents, players must interact with the drop chest a pre-configured number of times. This introduces a controlled delay to the claim process.
