Mine Time
Entry to the Timed Mines runs on a time balance. You need some time to get in, and it only drains while you're inside a mine.
How It Works
You start with no mine time. /minevoucher buy <tier> buys a voucher with money, in 5, 10, or 15-minute tiers. The voucher is an item: right-click it to add the time to your balance. You have to use up any remaining time before you can redeem another one.
You can buy up to 3 vouchers in any 24-hour window, counted from each purchase rather than a fixed daily reset.
With a zero balance, an invisible barrier stops you at the edge of a mine, and teleporting in doesn't get around it.
Inside a mine your balance counts down every second. A boss bar shows the time left, and you get a warning at 30 seconds. If it reaches zero while you're inside, you're sent back to spawn with a "no mine time" message.
/minearea shows each mine's reset countdown, how full it is, and how much ore is left, with buttons to buy vouchers and teleport to a mine (you still need time on your balance to teleport in).
