+# HubThat
+

+*A hub for one world, a spawn for each world!*
+
+## Project info
+
+HubThat is a Bukkit/SpigotMC plugin that allows players to manage
+different spawn points in multiple worlds, and connects all
+worlds together through a hub. This is useful to emulate a
+small-scale network, where players can play different game modes
+in different sub-servers - which in this case, are worlds.  
+  
+Spawn points can also be grouped and shared through different
+worlds. Every message is configurable and the plugin also
+includes features such as teleportation cool-downs (useful for
+PvP) and Multiverse-Core support.  
+  
+## Configuration
+
+Full configuration information and setup guide can be found
+on the official [SpigotMC forum thread](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/hubthat.1166/).
