SpadesSpot

Spades Spot in one plugin: the HUD, the menu and every game mode of the Spades Spot servers. Join a Spades Spot server with a current ReSkate (build 20261114 or newer); the game asks once whether to turn the plugin on: choose Turn on.

Since 2.0.0 this one package replaces SpadesRace, SpadesHideAndSeek, SpadesKingOfTheSpot and SpadesSKATE. Their last versions are empty and only bring you here: update them (or remove them), nothing else to do.

Game modes

• Races (/race): vote for a track with the others, or race alone. Checkpoints, laps, a live ranking and your gap to the leader on your HUD; records and a Race Rank on https://reskate.uwu.tools. Builders set their own checkpoints with /race edit.
• Hide and Seek (/hns): seekers and hiders, a shrinking search and a ping when a hider waits too long.
• King of the Spot (/kots): hold the spot with tricks, climb the ladder, take the crown.
• S.K.A.T.E. (/skate, or F3 > S.K.A.T.E.): set a trick, the others have to land it. Classic, Grinds, your own rules.

Which modes a server offers is up to the server; the menu on F3 shows what is there.

What you get

• F3 opens the menu: races, votes, your ranks and titles. Pick with 1-6, F3 again closes it.
• F3 also closes the welcome and what's new screens. What's new shows once, not again on every Spades Spot server.
• Your stats on screen: /rank (your Skate and Race Rank, how far to the next tier), /playtime, /servers (who skates where).
• Quests and levels: /quests shows today's quests, your streak and your level. Your level badge (Lv 12) shows above your name and everyone else's (the plugin asks for the name tags permission for this). Some quests count single tricks ("Land 300 kickflips"): the plugin counts the tricks you land by name and sends the counts to the server once a minute (the tricks permission). Nothing else about your tricks leaves your game.
• Skate Bingo: /bingo shows your card for the week - nine squares of small challenges (land 10 kickflips, finish a race ...), the middle one is free. Three in a row earn XP and Skate Rank points, a full card is a Blackout.
• Combo Chase: now and then the server calls out a combo, say Kickflip > 50-50 Grind > Heelflip. Land those tricks in one line, in that order, before anyone else: the first three win XP and Skate Rank points. The goal and the clock sit at the top left of your screen; the mod tells the server when you landed the line (the tricks permission, nothing else leaves your game).
• Trick of the Hour: /toth, the trick of the hour and the top 3 at the top left.
• Crews: found a crew with /crew create <TAG> <Name> (from Local) and invite others with /crew invite <player> - in game or in Discord. Your crew tag shows on your badge ([SPD] Lv 12) in the crew's colour, and every point you score counts for the weekly Crew of the Week. F3 > Crew: found one in a dialog, invite players, manage members and colour - no chat needed.
• Time of day votes on your HUD (/todvote, and now and then on their own): press 1-5, see the count live.
• Welcome back with your playtime and ranks, a welcome screen when you are new here, and what's new after an update.

HUD too big or too small? Open the ReSkate menu (Insert), go to PLUGINS > Spades Spot and drag HUD size (50-150%). It scales every Spades Spot view. Keys can be changed on the Binds page.

Without this mod

Everything still works on Spades Spot: you get cards, polls and chat lines instead of the HUD.

For server owners

This package is both sides: on a dedicated server it runs the server part of every feature. Switch features per server in the console (spades feature <race|hns|koth|skate> on|off), change values with spades set <feature>.<key> <json> and list them with spades config; the defaults are the files in config/. Ranks, quests, Bingo and the answers to /rank or /servers come from the Spades Spot toolkit's data mod (spades-data); races, Hide and Seek, King of the Spot and S.K.A.T.E. work without it (race tracks and spots need their files in a data mod, see the project page). Texts: welcome.json, whatsnew.json.
