# SkyDrops<\/p>\n

A custom airdrops for your Minecraft server!<\/p>\n

\"Airdrop<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

## Installation & Prerequisites<\/p>\n

**Prerequisites:**<\/p>\n

* Java 17 or higher
\n * **DecentHolograms** (Required for all hologram functionality)<\/p>\n

**Quick Start:**<\/p>\n

1. Download the **SkyDrops JAR**.
\n2. Place the JAR into your server’s `plugins\/` directory.
\n3. Restart the server.
\n4. Configure global settings via `\/skydrops settings`.
\n5. Define airdrop contents via `\/skydrops edit-drops`.<\/p>\n

## Core Functionality<\/p>\n

### In-game Configuration<\/p>\n

SkyDrops features a complete **GUI-based settings editor**, eliminating the need for manual file editing. All core parameters, including drop announcement times and scheduled intervals, are configurable in real-time.<\/p>\n

\n\"In-game\n<\/div>\n

### Drop Claim Mechanics<\/p>\n

To secure an airdrop’s contents, players must interact with the drop chest a pre-configured number of times. This introduces a controlled delay to the claim process.<\/p>\n
