Dynmap (implemented) + EssentialsX (brainstorm)

Dynmap — what was implemented

Plugin (DynmapService.java)

Soft reflection hook to Dynmap MarkerAPI
Marker sets: ai_goals, ai_bot, ai_paths, ai_arenas, ai_incidents, ai_cleanup
Ops: status, url, mark/bot/goal/incident, area/cleanup_zone, line/path, clear, lockdown
Auto bot marker on observation ticks (dynmap.auto-bot-marker)
Observation fields: dynmap_available, dynmap_url, dynmap_marker_sets

EssentialsX — integration brainstorm

EssentialsX is the player convenience suite: homes, warps, TPA, kits, economy (often via Vault), jail, mute, god, fly, nick, mail, worth, signs, etc. It pairs naturally with Vault and LuckPerms.

1. Observation / context

Field	Use
ess_home_count	Navigation curriculum
ess_is_jailed / muted / afk	Terminal or pause training
ess_nickname	Marker labels on Dynmap
ess_god / fly	Safety advisor risk
ess_last_location	Return-to-base goals

2. Safe actions for bots (gated)

Action	Node idea	DQN use
/home /spawn /warp	essentials.home etc.	Recovery when stuck
/tpa accept	coach workflow	Human-in-loop
/kit tools	train setup	Curriculum start
/back after death	death recovery	Episode reset
Never free /tp to players without approval	grief risk	Staff only

Bridge op sketch:

[json]
{“type”:”essentials”,”op”:”home|spawn|warp|kit|back|status”,”player”:”Bot”,”name”:”mine”}

3. Economy (with Vault)

EssentialsX Economy is usually the Vault provider you already hook.

Worth signs / sell → Δbalance for goal earn
/bal parity with minecraft vault balance
Kit costs → curriculum economy stages

4. CoreProtect + Essentials

Jail after high grief_score + LP mod approval
/tempban never automated without dual control
Lookup + Dynmap incident + optional Essentials mute suggestion

5. Dynmap + Essentials

Warp points as ai_goals markers (/warp shop → map pin)
Homes hidden from public map; staff set only
Jail location as permanent incident-style area

6. LuckPerms + Essentials

Group ai-bot: warp/home/spawn only in arena worlds
Deny essentials.fly / god for bot accounts
Temp essentials.kit.tools for train sessions

7. Training curriculum ideas

Stage	Essentials assist
Survive	/heal denied; natural regen only
Gather	/kit starter once per episode
Return base	/home base as privileged recovery action
Eval	No kits; pure policy

8. App Support playbooks (future)

Playbook	Action
ess_bot_stuck	Suggest spawn/home if stuck_ticks high
ess_kit_reset	Kit tools at arena start
ess_jail_check	If jailed, pause DQN
ess_warp_overlay	Dynmap mark all warps

9. Safety

Risk	Mitigation
Bot /tp harassment	Deny teleport-to-player for bot UUID
Kit dupes	Rate-limit kits per arena session
Economy drain	Vault mutate already apply-gated
Public home coords	Staff-only Dynmap set

10. Implementation phases (EssentialsX)

Observe jail/afk/god/fly + kit list via API/reflection
Recovery actions spawn/home/warp (permission gated)
Curriculum hooks kit + warp at phase start
Moderation suggest mute/jail from grief_score (human apply)

Thesis

**EssentialsX is player logistics; Dynmap is the map; LuckPerms is policy; CoreProtect is history; Vault is money; `_AI` chooses when logistics are allowed.**

Highest ROI next build (EssentialsX)
