Resource Packs

To read about how to generate and host resource packs read the section on Resources, it will be useful to read that before continuing on with this section.

Minigame's can handle resource packs for us, they will ensure that new incoming players will be prompted to download the correct packs, and when they leave the minigame the players will remove the respective packs.

Adding resource packs to minigame's is trivial, first we must create some MinigameResources, if you just have a few pre-determined packs that you want to send to all players then we can use the utility method MinigameResources#of:

val packA: PackInfo = // ...
val packB: PackInfo = // ...
val packC: PackInfo = // ...

val resources: MinigameResources = MinigameResources.of(packA, packB, packC)

Alternatively MinigameResources allows you to generate a list of packs on a per-player basis. We can make our own implementation by implementing the MinigameResources interface:

object MyResources: MinigameResources {
    override fun getPacks(): Collection<PackInfo> {
        return super.getPacks()
    }

    override fun getPacks(player: ServerPlayer): Collection<PackInfo> {
        return super.getPacks(player)
    }
}

Once we have our resources we can simply add them to our minigame using the Minigame#resources field. This will keep track of existing resources and ensure to broadcast changes to players in the minigame.

val minigame: Minigame = // ...
    
minigame.resources.add(MyResources)

// We can also remove resources
minigame.resources.remove(MyResources)
