Challenges GUI

Mini Shop - ASkyBlock has a customizable built-in mini shop to allow players to buy and sell items!

Settings - Players can see what settings the game has and what is protected or not protected on their island. Protection is built-in and World Guard is not required!

Welcome Warp Signs allow every player to make one warp on their island. The GUI shows player's heads and allows advertising of their island!

Set Up and Installation
Compatibility: 1.7.9 onwards however pure 1.8 and pure 1.9 do not work well due to server bugs. Use 1.8.8 or 1.9.x or better yet 1.12.x or later!

Required Plugins

Vault - make sure you are running the latest version!

Recommended Plugins

An economy of some kind, e.g. Essentials, etc. - if you have more than one world, run a multi-world economy like Miconomy or use MultiWorldMoney
Essentials Spawn, so you can set the spawn position
MultiverseCore - so you can manage multiple worlds
Some kind of shop plugin to enable players to trade
MultiInv to manage inventories and keep them separate between worlds or Multiverse Inventories.
PermissionsEx to manage groups and permissions
A HungerKeeper plugin like this one can stop players from regenerating hunger by suiciding.
Greenhouses - enables players to build biome greenhouses for biome farming!
Top Ten Heads - a simple top ten plugin to show player's heads

First Time Installation and Configuration
For upgrading, see the release notes for each release.

Download the plugin (ASkyBlock.jar) and other plugins (Vault).
Place into your plugins folder
Restart your server - this will make the world and config files.
Stop the server.
Open the plugin/ASkyBlock folder.
Open up config.yml and adjust how you like. You may also want to change other config files like blockvalues.yml and challenges.yml.
Start your server again.
Permissions should be set by default unless you use a permissions manager. In which case, set up permissions.
Log in and type /island to start your island!

(The next steps are optional)

Change Island Guard settings.
Check challenges.yml and change if you like.
Not use the island-style nether (see config.yml) (Remember to delete the ASkyBlock_nether world if you do so it will regenerate)
Set up your spawn if you'd like to use A Skyblock spawn. Go to a location away from other islands and type /asadmin setspawn. Then create an island spawn in that location. Use /asadmin info in that area to tell you where the spawn coordinates are.

Admin Tips
Some recommendations to improve gameplay:

Install a trading or chest shop plugin because going from one island to another is part of the fun!
Consider allowing creeper explosions and Enderman griefing. Some of the best servers have this on and are hard, but fun.
Note: A Skyblock has island protection options, including explosion prevention.
Make a spawn. (Convert an island to a spawn point using /asadmin setspawn)
