General

Debug

Debug: flip this to true and BountyBoard chatters more in ArkApi.log. Keep it false day to day.

AutosaveSeconds

AutosaveSeconds: how often the plugin saves bounty data to disk. 30 is fine.

Commands

Commands: what players type in chat. Change any word you like, or make one "" to switch it off.

BountyCMD

place a bounty, or type it alone to see the list.

TopCMD

show the best bounty hunters.

MineCMD

show bounties on you and bounties you placed.

Bounty

Bounty: the rules.

MinBounty

MinBounty and MaxBounty: the smallest and biggest points a player can put on one bounty.

MaxBounty

BlockSameTribe

BlockSameTribe: set to true so a kill between tribe mates does not pay out. This stops a tribe from farming its own bounties.

BlockSelf

BlockSelf: set to true so a player can not put a bounty on themselves.

HouseCutPct

HouseCutPct: the share the server keeps when a bounty is paid. 0.0 means the killer gets the whole pot. 0.1 means the server keeps 10 percent and the killer gets 90.

NotifyTarget

NotifyTarget: set to true to warn a player when a bounty is placed on them. Set it to false for stealth bounties, where the target does not know they are hunted.

AnnounceToAll

AnnounceToAll: set to true to tell the whole server when a bounty is placed.

ExpireHours

ExpireHours: how long a bounty lasts before it is refunded to the placers. 0 means bounties never expire. 48 means a bounty that no one claims in two days gives the points back.

AnnounceMostWanted

AnnounceMostWanted: set to true to call out the biggest open bounty now and then.

AnnounceMostWantedMinutes

AnnounceMostWantedMinutes: how often the most wanted call out runs, in minutes. 15 means every 15 minutes. Set AnnounceMostWanted to false to turn it off.

ListCount

ListCount: how many rows the /bounty list and /bountytop show.

PingPoolAtOrAbove

PingPoolAtOrAbove: when a claimed bounty pot is this big or bigger, the Discord post adds an @here ping. Set it very high to never ping.

Permissions

Permissions: gate who can place a bounty. Needs the Permissions plugin.

Enabled

Enabled: turn this off and anyone can place a bounty, no Permissions check at all. When it is true and the Permissions plugin is installed, a player needs the "BountyBoard.Use" node. Grant it to your Default group, or normal players can not place a bounty. Admin groups with a wildcard already have it.

AdminPermission

AdminPermission: the node for admin actions. Not required for v1.

ArkShop

ArkShop: the points economy. When it is on and ArkShop.dll is loaded, bounties use ArkShop points. When it is off or ArkShop is missing, the plugin keeps its own point count per player so it still runs.

Enabled

Discord

Discord: post bounty events to a webhook. Off by default.

Enabled

Enabled: switch this on to send bounty news to Discord. Fill in a WebhookURL too.

WebhookURL

WebhookURL: drop the webhook link for your Discord channel right here.

Username

Username: the name your bounty posts show up under in Discord.

ServerName

ServerName: this shows in the footer of each post. Set it to your server's name.
