StarOpenSource EngineMC
EngineMC (or sos!enginemc for short) is a port of the StarOpenSource Engine to Minecraft and it's various plugin and mod loaders.

Using EngineMC
As a rule of thumb, don't do anything stupid in your plugin or modification. This includes:
- initializing the engine manually
- accessing undocumented or internal methods, fields, etc.
- using
EngineInternals
Everything should work out of the box.
Bukkit
Simply declare the plugin sosenginemc
as a hard dependency in your plugin.yml
file.
Sponge, Fabric, Quilt, (Neo-)Forge & others
EngineMC does not yet support these plugin/mod loaders yet, sorry.
The /enginemc
command
The /enginemc
command allows access into the engine without the use of plugins.
It can do the following things:
- read and modify the engine configuration
- parse placeholders using the
PlaceholderEngine
class and return it back - force garbage collection
- display JVM information
Known issues
Reflection is broken
Due to how the mod and plugin loaders load JAR files, scanning the classpath for annotations does not work.
This means that events have to be registered manually. You can do that by calling EventHelper#registerEvent
).
If you want to use a specific subsystem, either find or make a plugin/mod porting that subsystem to Minecraft (best option), or shade and include the subsystem in your final JAR and hope nothing breaks. Only do that if you have no other choice or the subsystem is specific to your plugin or modification.
