\n# BoatRace – A simple racing plugin
\nA Java Minecraft Paper plugin that provides timers and scoreboards for races.
\n## How to use:
\n1. Setup a track using commands.
\n2. Players can join tracks by using \/race join <name>
\n3. An item will be given to players, which can be used to switch their status between ready and not ready on right click
\n4. When all participants in the track are ready, the countdown starts and race begins afterwards
\n5. During countdown, participants who are outside the start region will be teleported to the spawn of the track. And if participants tried to move outside the start region while mounting a boat, the boat is removed. Player movements of participants outside the start region during countdown will be cancelled. **Caution: player position will be lowered when they mount a boat, this must be considered when setting the start region**
\n6. When a participant reached the finish line, their timer is sent to all participants within the same session. Their personal records and track records will be updated immediately if conditions are met.
\n## Dependencies:
