ChameleonCraft: Bazaar

A remix of ChameleonCraft by Jackson Kohn (MECCHA CHAMELEON's hide-and-seek, played inside Minecraft: Java Edition). Everything from the original is here, plus a new arena, your own maps, and controls that move and paint the way MECCHA does.

What's new in this remix

• The market bazaar: a sandstone-walled plaza (72 x 72) with 24 market stalls under striped awnings in every colour, counters of melons, pottery, spices, lanterns, cloth and rugs, hanging cloth lines across the alleys, patterned rugs, crate and hay piles, palm trees, a shaded arcade along the walls, four gates and a domed well in the middle. /cham start bazaar (plain /cham start is still the village).
• Your own maps from schematics: drop a .schem (WorldEdit), .litematic (Litematica) or .nbt (structure block) file into .minecraft/chameleoncraft/maps and start a round in it with /cham start <file name>. /cham maps lists them. Older schematics are upgraded to today's blocks.
• Climb like MECCHA's chameleon: walk into a wall and hold Space to climb it and hop over the top. Let go and you stay stuck to the wall, free to paint and pose there. Climb into a block overhead to grab the ceiling and walk along it upside down. WASD moves along the surface, C (crouch) lets go. Chameleons step up whole blocks.
• Seekers fly: in the seek phase, F toggles flight (Space up, Crouch down) so every roof and ledge is in reach.
• MECCHA's default keys: F paint mode (fly for seekers), R pose, V shadow, 1 taunt, Left Shift run, C crouch, Space climb. Applied once; rebind anything in Controls afterwards.
• MECCHA-style paint mode: colour wheel, brightness bar, current and previous colour, R/G/B and Hue/Saturation/Brightness sliders; hold Space for the 3D eyedropper, right-drag for brush size, left-drag off your body (or Alt + right-drag) to turn the camera, wheel to zoom, Q to wipe, middle click to take a block's texture (T toggles it). MECCHA's key tiles and Climb/Run/Crouch bar on screen.

From the original

• Hiders become MECCHA CHAMELEON's real white chameleon body ("paintman"), read from your own MECCHA install.
• Freeze in any of MECCHA's poses from its own pose menu, with MECCHA's pose icons.
• Seekers are blindfolded for 60 seconds, then hunt for 3 minutes with MECCHA's shotgun; every miss costs health. Found chameleons join the seekers (MECCHA's infection rule).
• MECCHA's own sounds and music.
• Multiplayer: host from Melty and friends join with Melty's join link (e4mc gives the world a public address, no port forwarding).
• One click: Melty installs a ready Minecraft (Prism Launcher with Fabric); you sign in to Microsoft once. MECCHA CHAMELEON has to be installed from Steam on each player's PC; the mod reads it the first time (a few seconds) and never ships any of it.

Host commands: /cham start [village|bazaar|], /cham maps, /cham here (around you), /cham stop, /cham village, /cham bazaar.
