hytale-events

To handle player joins in a Hytale plugin, register PlayerReadyEvent using registerGlobal. This IEvent listener executes custom logic immediately when a player successfully connects to the game server.

IEvent handles global synchronous server events, IAsyncEvent manages asynchronous operations, and EcsEvent processes entity or block-related events. Choosing the right Hytale event type depends on whether your logic requires thread safety or interacts with the ECS.

To cancel block break or item drop events in a Hytale plugin, implement CancellableEcsEvent within your EcsEvent handler. This intercepts BreakBlockEvent or DropItemEvent and prevents the default game behavior from executing.

Yes, you can use ECS event systems to handle entity death and damage in Hytale. By registering OnDeathSystem and Damage EcsEvent handlers, your plugin can listen to combat interactions and execute custom logic upon entity defeat.

To intercept player chat messages in a Hytale plugin, register a global event listener for PlayerChatEvent. This IEvent handler captures chat input from connected players, allowing you to modify, log, or cancel the message before it broadcasts.

Yes, setting up a Hytale event handling plugin requires a root SKILL.md file with valid YAML frontmatter specifying name and description. You can also include optional resources folders for scripts, references, and assets to support your event handlers.
