Usage Examples

Create a Vote (Player)

/syvote create "Enable PVP?" "Should we enable the PVP feature in the spawn area?"

After creation, a clickable broadcast message will be sent to the entire server:

[Vote] Shiyuan started a vote: Enable PVP? (click to vote)

Cast a Vote

Click the vote link in chat, or type the command manually:

/syvote vote vote_1_xxx yes   # Vote yes
/syvote vote vote_1_xxx no    # Vote no

Admin Broadcast

/syvote broadcast vote_1_xxx

Resends a clickable link of the specified vote to the entire server, making it easier to remind players to participate.

Set the Creation Fee

/syvote setcost 500

Sets the cost for players to create a vote to 500 gold.

Disable Player Vote Creation

/syvote togglecreate

After disabling, only administrators with the syvote.admin permission can create votes.
