Minecraft plugin Quests

🔌 About Quests

Quests — is an open‑source Minecraft plugin for creating and running quests on Spigot/Paper servers. Quests provides a flexible quest editor and runtime allowing players to take multiple quests simultaneously, complete objectives for rewards, and use features such as a Quest Journal and Compass tracking. Quests aims to solve the need for an in‑game, configurable quest system for survival, RPG and community servers.

🎯 Purpose

Quests addresses the need for an integrated quest system that server staff can edit and extend without coding. Quests helps server owners add guided objectives, reward structures and progression to Minecraft gameplay.

⚙ Core features

• In‑game quest creation and editing (Quest Editor).
• Players can accept, track and complete multiple quests concurrently.
• Reward systems and Quest Points.
• Quest Journal (toggleable) and Compass tracking for objectives.
• Clickable text choices and configurable actions/conditions.

These features are documented in the official Quests documentation and the project README. ()

🧩 Who it’s for

• Survival and RPG servers that need guided tasks and reward systems.
• Admins who want an editor to create quests without external tools.
• Communities that use questing for events or progression.

🏗 Usage examples

• Create a multi‑stage quest that rewards players with items, points, or commands.
• Enable compass tracking for a quest objective so players can find quest locations.
• Use /quests and the Quest Editor to iterate on new community events.
