JobX

💼 JobX - The Ultimate Citybuild Job System

JobX is a highly configurable job and reward system designed for Paper and Spigot servers (Vault required). Players earn money and gain XP by performing everyday actions such as mining, killing entities, fishing, crafting, trading, or exploring. The plugin features a complete leveling system, automated periodic payouts, hourly income limits, server-wide top lists, per-player YAML storage, and intuitive in-game GUIs for both players and admins.

✨ Main Features

• 10 Default Jobs: HUNTER, MINER, WOODCUTTER, DIGGER, FARMER, EXPLORER, CRAFTER, TRADER, FISHER, BUILDER.
• Job Leveling: Earn XP per action with a fully customizable level-up XP curve. Higher levels require significantly more XP.
• Periodic Payouts: Earnings are bundled and automatically paid out via Vault at fixed intervals (Default: every 1200 ticks (60 seconds)).
• Income Limits: Optional hourly/timed earnings limits with an integrated cooldown display.
• Statistics: Clear daily, weekly, and monthly statistics tracked per player and job.
• Server-Wide Leaderboards: Top lists for every single job (based on Level + XP), viewable directly inside the GUI (up to 28 slots).
• Smart Listeners: Full tracking and XP/money allocation for BlockBreak, BlockPlace, EntityKill, Fishing, Crafting, Trade, and PlayerMove.
• Data & Security: Persistent storage in data/users/<UUID>.yml. Safe Plugman reload notices and error-free reload handling.

❓ FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Is Vault strictly required?
A: Yes. Without Vault and a running economy provider, the system cannot distribute cash rewards to players.

Q: Can I disable specific jobs entirely?
A: Yes, you can do this either by setting Enabled: false in the config.yml or instantly via the /jobadmin GUI.

Q: Are XP still awarded if a player hits their money limit?
A: Yes! Once a player reaches their hourly money cap, cash earnings freeze, but they continue to gather job XP normally.
