Project: Unknown
A social deduction plugin where everyone is anonymous. All players are disguised with the same name and skin. Hunt others with the Detective's Compass, reveal identities with the Bell of Truth, and eliminate players by catching them with the right weapon.
🔹 Features
-
Complete Anonymity
Every player appears identical with the same nickname and skin. No one knows who's who. -
Detective's Compass
Track a random player for 5 minutes. See their distance, direction, and countdown timer in your actionbar. Hunted players get notified with a warning message. -
Bell of Truth (Experimental)
Place and ring a bell to reveal all players within 8 blocks for 10 seconds. Their real names appear in red, they glow red.
Note: Based on limited information - expect changes and updates. -
Dragon Egg (Coming Soon)
Gain +1 max heart for each kill while holding the egg. Right-click to reveal all players within 8 blocks. Unlock access to the permanent locator bar showing all player positions.
This feature is planned for a future update. -
Catching System
Rename a weapon to someone's real username in an anvil. Kill them with that weapon to permanently ban them from the server. One wrong guess and you've wasted your weapon.
