🔥 Heat SMP Plugin

A high-performance, feature-rich Minecraft plugin built for PaperMC 1.21.11. This plugin introduces a permanent elemental class system and a "Thermal Economy" where heat is your most valuable resource—and your greatest threat.

🚀 Features

• Permanent Class Assignment: Players are assigned one of three classes on first join and keep it forever via Player PDC and a backup plugins/HeatSMP/data/players.yml file.
• Elemental Classes:
  • Cryo Warden — cold-focused. Gains energy in snowy biomes, on ice, and while standing in water.
  • Solar Acolyte — daylight-focused. Gains energy in plains/forest biomes during daytime.
  • Pyro Vanguard — heat-focused. Gains energy in deserts, badlands, and the Nether.
• Opposed Environment Penalty: Players lose energy faster when they are in terrain opposed to their class.
• Tiered Power System:
  • 25+ Heat (Warm): Speed I.
  • 50+ Heat (Hot): Speed II, Haste I, Fire Resistance.
  • 75+ Heat (Sizzling): Strength I, Haste II.
• Custom Class Abilities:
  • Glacial Tomb (Cryo): Sneak + left-click creates a temporary 3×3 blue glass cage around the target.
  • Ray of Judgment (Solar): Right-click with an empty hand fires a beam that applies Weakness II.
  • Magma Trail (Pyro): Sprinting above 75 energy leaves flame particles that damage nearby entities.
• PvP Siphon: If a player is killed by a different class, the killer steals 50% of the victim's energy.
• MiniMessage Action Bar HUD: Class-colored HUD display for Cryo (blue), Solar (gold), and Pyro (crimson).
• Meltdown Mechanic: Reaching 100 heat triggers a dangerous meltdown state with a short cooldown window.
