scoreboard.yml

scoreboard.yml defines the sidebar shown during a Whack Me run. Unlike multi-stage minigames, Whack Me uses one title and one line list throughout its short single-player game.

Supported Placeholders

Placeholder	Description
`%player%`	Name of the player viewing the board.
`%date%`	Current server date.
`%arena%`	Arena ID.
`%timer%`	Remaining time in seconds.
`%formatted_timer%`	Remaining time in `MM:SS`.
`%score%`	Current run score.
`%hit_streak%`	Current consecutive correct-hit streak.
`%record_score%`	Arena’s current record score.
`%record_holder%`	Arena’s current record holder.
`%success_rate%`	Current correct-hit percentage with one decimal place.

Example

title: "<gradient:#00E676:#29B6F6><bold>WHACK ME</bold></gradient>"
lines:
  - "<#B0C4DE>%date%"
  - ""
  - "<#E6E6E6>Arena: <#29B6F6>%arena%"
  - "<#E6E6E6>Time: <#FFCA28>%formatted_timer%"
  - ""
  - "<#E6E6E6>Score: <#00E676>%score%"
  - "<#E6E6E6>Hit Streak: <#00E676>%hit_streak%"
  - ""
  - "<#E6E6E6>Record: <#FFD54F>%record_score%"

The title and lines support MiniMessage. Empty strings create visual spacing.

Disabling Scoreboards

Scoreboards can be disabled globally in config.yml:

scoreboard-enabled: false

They can also be disabled per arena in the setup menu. Both the global setting and the arena setting must allow scoreboards for players to see them.
