⚔ TradeSMP
Every player carries a Trade Level from -3 to +3. Kill to rise and gain buffs, die to fall and get punished.
By zArrowTan, part of Arrow Plugins.

📋 Overview

TradeSMP is a PvP progression system that gives every player a single Trade Level running from -3 to +3. Kill players in PvP and you climb, gaining stacking buffs the higher you go. Die and you drop, sliding into stacking penalties at the bottom. Reach the bottom and die again, and you're banned. It's a high-stakes ladder that rewards winners and punishes losers, and every number behind it is yours to tune.

📈 How Levels Work

Everyone starts at level 0, with nothing active
Kill a player and rise one level (max +3)
Die and drop one level (min -3), any death by default, or PvP-only if you prefer
Die again at -3 and you're banned (admins with the bypass permission are exempt)
Positive levels stack every lower buff, negative levels stack every lower penalty

🏆 The Buffs (Positive Levels)

Level +1: Hero of the Village II, and bread acts like a golden apple (Absorption II + Regeneration II) when eaten below full hunger
Level +2: Hero of the Village IV, and hitting the same player 10 times with an emerald block in hand strikes them with lightning for 4 hearts
Level +3: Hero of the Village VI, Resistance I for 30s after a totem pops, and access to /tradesmp locate village

The +2 lightning strike, 10 hits with an emerald block:

Bread healing like a golden apple, longer at +3 than +2:

💀 The Penalties (Negative Levels)

Level -1: villager prices +25%, and Slowness for 10s after eating golden apples
Level -2: villager prices +50%, and Slowness for 20s after golden apples
Level -3: villager prices +100%, Slowness and Weakness after golden apples, and your next death is a ban

Golden apples turn against you, the penalty grows each level down:
-1 (Slowness):

-2 (longer Slowness):

-3 (Slowness + Weakness):

Every duration, percentage, hit count, damage value, and cooldown above is configurable in config.yml.

🗺 Village Locator

Top-level players unlock /tradesmp locate village, a built-in locator that points to the nearest village on a cooldown. It's gated on your stored Trade Level rather than the vanilla /locate command, so access is tied cleanly to your rank and can't be spoofed through vanilla permission levels.
