Do I need Vault installed to use MobHunting?

Yes, if you want money rewards. MobHunting hooks into Vault or Gringotts for its economy features. Without one of those, kill rewards won't work. The rest of the plugin (heads, achievements, leaderboards) should still function.

Can I turn off player money stealing?

Yes. The feature where players can steal money from others on kill is disabled by default in most setups and can be fully turned off in config.yml if it somehow got enabled.

Does MobHunting give rewards for mob grinders?

No, it includes mob grinder detection specifically to stop that. Mobs killed in grinder setups won't pay out, which keeps the economy from getting wrecked by AFK farms.

Can I set different payout amounts for different mobs?

Yes. Each mob type has its own configurable base payout in config.yml. You can set them independently, scale them up or down, or disable payouts for specific mobs entirely.

What is the learning mode feature?

When a player kills a mob and doesn't get a reward, learning mode sends them a message explaining why. Useful for new players who don't understand why a particular kill didn't count.

MobHunting Plugin 1.13.2/1.12.2 for Bukkit & Spigot

MobHunting is a Bukkit/Spigot plugin that pays players real in-game money for killing mobs. Add mob heads, player skulls, bounties, kill achievements, and leaderboards on top of that. If your server needs a reason for players to actually go out and hunt things, this one covers it.

Kill modifiers and bonus multipliers
Achievement payout amounts
Penalty amounts for specific actions
