SimpleBounty

Looking for a simple way to let players put bounties on each other? SimpleBounty handles the whole thing automatically—no chat spam, no weird setups, and no headaches.

Features

• Easy Chest GUI: Everything's managed through a clean menu. Players can check active targets, post new rewards, or look at past kills without having to leave the chest UI.
• Instant Auto-Payouts: Nobody needs to type commands or swap codes after a fight. As soon as someone gets the kill in PvP, the money goes straight to their account.
• Vault Compatible: Works directly with Vault, so whatever you use for your server's economy (EssentialsX, CMI, etc.) will just pick it up.
• Exploit Protection: Built to stop menu item stealing, double payouts, and money duplication bugs.
• Auto-Saves Everything: Changes write to disk immediately with backup copies, so server crashes or quick restarts won't wipe target data.
• Fully Configurable: Change menu titles, set payout caps, and edit any message with regular color codes.

How It Works

Getting a bounty running is a quick four-step process for your players:

1. Run /bounty and hit Create Bounty.
2. Pick a player, enter the reward amount, and confirm.
3. The funds get held safely, and the target goes onto the global board.
4. The first person to kill them gets the cash instantly, and the record moves over to Completed Bounties.
