- With extensive reference to all programming commands
Have you been playing Minecraft for a long time and think you've seen everything? Do you already know the fire sword, the end bow or the game mode »Snowball Fight«? Do you want to build towers, walls or even entire houses at the touch of a button? Fully automatically react to events in the game world? With your own plugins, you can discover all this and much more and learn to program.
Daniel Braun shows you how to program extensions for Minecraft with Java and Bukkit or Spigot, so-called plugins, which you can then try out together with your friends on your own Minecraft server. No previous knowledge is required, you learn everything from the beginning.
After programming simple chat commands, you will create cool plugins to build, so that with a single command immediately a finished house or a ball is in front of you. You can also learn how your plugins can automatically react to events in the game world.
You can also design your own crafting recipes to create powerful new weapons such as the Firesword that sets fire to everything it encounters. In the end, you even learn how to develop your own game modes, i.e. an in-game game. Whether a snowball battle with a high score list or a betting with a reward for the winner, lots of fun is guaranteed.
For all this, you do not need any previous knowledge, just fun programming. It starts with very simple examples, but with each chapter you will learn more ways to customize Minecraft to your liking. In the end, you can program properly in Java to create your own Minecraft world. So there are no limits to your own creativity.
