to much no gravity!

THIS PLUGIN IS JUST FOR FUN!!!! YOU CAN USE IT ON YOUR SERVER BUT I WOULD NOT!!!

was bored so made a small gravity plugin.

/gravity default sets your gravity

/gravity VALUE value has to be a float (-5.0f) default gravity is -9.81f.

/gravity all default sets all players on the server gravity to default

/gravity all VALUE sets all players on the server gravity

entering other commands that start with /gravity can/will cause an error!

again just for fun i would only use on single player worlds!

ps.

if you dare enter /gravity 999.99f.

update 1.1 available

is the Server.getAllAreas() not working? i beleive my code is correct but keep getting a null for start position.

public void showareas(Player player){
        Area areas[] = Server.getAllAreas();
        for (Area area : areas) {
            
            Area newa = new Area(area.getStartPosition(),area.getEndPosition());
            Area3D toshow = new Area3D(newa);
            player.addGameObject(toshow);
        }
    }

However, this is a big area (as many players areas are on his servers) and so far I've only been able to make 6 claims, which only cover one full house, part of another house and a farm plot. With the points going up each time (think its now 120 to the next claim) this is going to take a very long time.

i believe yahgiggle mentioned adding a way for admins to give points in the future. for the time being the owner of the server can download db browser for sqlite. open the database in write mode(database.db in the plugin/worldname folder) and go to the points table and add points to the points column. then file/write changes. but, i cannot stress this enough backup the database first!

if you meet other players, trade ... or post orders or receive them from npcs ...

forgot to mention im also planning an auction house. there will be a selling/buying fee of some sort. there will also be a placable mail box for reciving packages from auction house and player to player deliveries/letters. player to player deliveries will have a mailing tax based on distance. the funds raised form the auction house and mail will be used as rewards for events as well as pay for materials for community builds. i think letters will be an equip able item that opens when you equip it. it can then be thrown away or stored in a chest(maybe a mail bag?)

as im trying to work out mechanics of the professions for the rpg overhaul plugin.... ive figured out a way to make events cost stamina. so if you are a lumberjack chopping trees only cost say 5 stamina while for a miner it would cost 10. you will get so many points per lvl gained. said points can be assigned. so a lumber jack could upgrade the cost per tree chopped(lower stam cost) as well as upgrade total stamina. thoughts?

As an example, let's take the plugins for the Rust game: in it, the plugins for teleporting home and teleporting to a saved point use different commands without a prefix. And the data about the author of the plugin is registered inside the plugin. Extra prefixes deprive of convenience when using the plugin.

I do not think that the /sethome and /home commands will be used by other plugins that do not relate to teleport.

using a prefix is the way to go. when a /command is used it triggers an onplayercommand method for all plugins. i ran into an issue where it was reading from the database from 2 of my plugins for every command entered. a simple fix was to add a prefix. so something like this:

//plugin 1
if (cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/this")){
    get that database connection.
} if (cmd[1].equalsIgnoreCase("database")){
        do something with this database
        }else{return;}
}else{ return;}

//plugin 2
if (cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/that")){
    get that database connection.
} if (cmd[1].equalsIgnoreCase("database")){
        do something with that database
        }else{return;}
}else{ return;}

in my case it was just getting a database connection for both plugins. but if your doing something more complex you can cause errors in other plugins.

with the above code it prevents any errors that may happening.

also with the api being new there is alot of development going on, the odds of having multiple plugins using similar commands is quit high. in my case there will be a /sethome player position, /sethome area, and /sethome area npc so my prefix's will be /npc, /player, /Area fallowed by the sethome.

nice idea ... but since a server is supposed to restart every 24 hours, I ask myself, does it start from scratch again?

it does not start over when the server restarts.

Quote from SonoBionda

Tested it in single play...I like it a lot...

would it be possible for the menu to open as soon as you enter a portal?

What would be optimal if this is a restricted menu that only offers the travel options ...

for the owner of the portal possibly with a cancel button so that he can then edit the portal with "U" (the complete menu).

the menu auto open is possible but it would have to check vector position every time the player moves then compare this to the database. single player this would be fine, but if you had 20 ppl running around a server you would run into database locked issue as you can only have one connection at a time to an SQLite database. i will be redoing the plugin once the api gets an update.

can u send me a copy of the log?

    @EventMethod
    public void harvest(PlayerInventoryAddItemEvent evt){
        Player player = evt.getPlayer();
        Origin origin = evt.getOrigin();
        int slot = evt.getInventorySlot();
        Inventory inv = player.getInventory();
        Inventory.SlotType slottype = evt.getInventorySlotType();
        Item item = inv.getItem(slot, slottype);
        String name = item.getName();
        player.sendTextMessage(name);
    }

    @EventMethod 
    public void consume(PlayerConsumeItemEvent evt){
        Player player = evt.getPlayer();
       
        Item item = evt.getItem();
