# Dynamic Bounties


Dynamic Bounties introduces a fully player-driven bounty system for Minecraft servers, turning PvP into a strategic hunt where every kill can be worth real rewards.


Players can secretly place bounties on others, increasing the target's value and motivating the entire server to hunt them down.


With a modern GUI system, anti-exploit protections, automatic killstreak bounties, and high-performance SQLite storage, Dynamic Bounties creates an engaging PvP experience while remaining lightweight and optimized for large servers.

# Core Gameplay


Any player can place a bounty on another player.


Multiple players can contribute to the same target, increasing the total bounty pool. The bounty remains active until the target is killed.


When the target dies:

• The killer automatically receives the full bounty reward
• The bounty is removed from the system
• The event is broadcast to the entire server

The identity of bounty hosts always remains secret, preventing harassment and maintaining a competitive environment.

# GUI-Based Bounty System


Dynamic Bounties includes a fully interactive GUI system replacing command-heavy interfaces.


Players can manage everything through simple and intuitive menus.


### Main Menu


Players can access the bounty system using:



This opens the main bounty interface.




Main Menu Options

• Active Bounties – View all current bounty targets
• Set Bounty – Place a bounty on another player
• Leaderboards – View the top bounty hunters
• My Bounties – Manage bounties you placed

---


# Active Bounties GUI


This menu displays all players who currently have a bounty placed on them.





Each bounty entry displays:

• Player head for quick identification
• Total bounty value
• Pagination for large bounty lists

Only the total bounty amount is shown — the players who contributed remain completely anonymous.


This helps maintain a healthy PvP environment without personal targeting.


---


# Set Bounty GUI


Players can place bounties through a clean GUI system.


First, select a player from the list of online and offline players.





After selecting a target, the player enters the bounty amount in chat.


Accepted input format:



Players can type:



to cancel the process at any time.


---


# My Bounties GUI


The My Bounties menu shows all bounties placed by the player.





Players can:

• View all bounties they placed
• Modify bounty amounts
• Cancel bounties before they are claimed
• View bounty details

Confirmation menus prevent accidental removal of bounties.

# Leaderboards


Dynamic Bounties tracks the most successful bounty hunters on the server.






Displays players who have hunted the most bounty targets.





Displays players who have earned the most money from bounties.


These leaderboards encourage competitive PvP and reward skilled hunters.


---


# Advanced Anti-Exploit Protection


Leaderboards are protected with multiple anti-exploit systems.


Kills do NOT count for leaderboard statistics if:

• Killer and victim share the same IP
• The same victim is killed repeatedly within a short time
• The victim has not played long enough on the server
• The victim barely fought back
• The killer placed the bounty on the victim themselves

Rewards are still paid normally, but leaderboards remain fair and abuse-free.

# Automatic Killstreak Bounties


Dynamic Bounties can automatically place bounties on players who become too dangerous.


Example broadcast:



Example configuration:



This creates natural PvP targets and server-wide hunts.

The identities of bounty hosts remain hidden.
