Setup Guide

Quick Start

1. Install Gamemode Core and Gamemode Honey Drop
2. Set up a lobby in Gamemode Core if you haven't already (gm.lobby create here 50)
3. Add lobby spawn points (gm.lobby spawn add here 2)
4. Create a Honey Drop arena: gm.honeydrop create "Hex Arena" here 80
5. Add player spawn points (used during warmup): gm.honeydrop spawn player add here 3
6. Add spectator spawn points: gm.honeydrop spawn spectator add here 5 20
7. Create a teleporter in the lobby: gm.honeydrop teleporter create here 3 15
8. Optionally configure gear sets: gm.honeydrop set maingearset mygearset
9. Test with the regenerate command to preview the grid: gm.honeydrop regenerate

Tuning the Grid

• A gridradius of 5 with tilespacing of 1.5 creates a medium-sized hex platform
• Increase gridradius for more players or longer rounds
• Increase levelcount for more vertical layers (more chances before elimination)
• Adjust levelspacing to control how long players fall between layers — larger values give more time to maneuver mid-air
