    Rifts - An all in one MMO plugin
    Version: v1.09 Beta

    Upgrade note 1.05: You will need to delete your plugins/Rifts/database.db file to get the pvp world to work. To avoid this, open your database.db file in SQLite Database Browser and in the execute sql tab, enter DROP TABLE CAGES; and restart your server. This should recreate the table and generate new cages (the dark world one never generated, the lightworld one will be in the same place. No need to regenerate the map). I apologize for having to do this, but going forward the need to mess with the database should be minimal.

    Please note this plugin is very BETA. It needs testing and will have bugs. Report the bugs here and I'll work to fix them. It also needs class balancing so if you notice some balancing needed just let me know and I'll do what I can to work with you. Also, this is a beefy plugin. If you cannot run at least 2 worlds at once on your server, it won't work real well for you. Sorry, but I don't have any plans on making this work on a one world server (3 if you want the pvp world).

    Description
    A PvP based RPG plugin that contains everything you need all in one plugin!

    Rifts contains 2 factions, the light and the dark. Each faction has their own world isolated from each other. Each faction has 5 classes:

    Fighter – Front line soldier, utilizes strength to cut down their opponents.
    • Gains 1 str point per level
    • Can use diamond swords
    • Can wear iron armor
    • Cannot use bows
    Defender – A soldier more reliant on defense than offense, great for sieges.
    • Gains 1 def point per level
    • Can use iron swords
    • Can wear diamond armor
    • Cannot use bows
    Mage – A high powered character with little defensive abilities.
    • Gains 1 int point per level, to use magic must be holding a book
    • Can use stone swords
    • Can wear cloth armor
    • Cannot use bows
    Priest – A support unit able to heal themselves as well as their party members.
    • Gains 1 spr point per level, to use magic must be holding a stick
    • Can use stone swords
    • Can wear iron armor
    • Cannot use bows
    Archer – Able to attack from greater distances, uses mana to enhance their arrows.
    • Gains 1 agl point per level
    • Can use stone swords
    • Can wear cloth armor
    • Can use bows
    For every level a character gains, they get 7 stats points, 2 skill points as well as unlocking new skills to buy.

    Each player has 6 attributes they can add their stats to:

    Str (Strength) – How much damage you do with a physical attack (sword, axe, bow).
    Def (Defense) – How much damage is negated due to any type of damage (entity, falling, fire, etc).
    Int (Intelligence) – How strong magic spells are (fireball, heal, etc).
    Spr (Spirit) – How quickly your mana regenerates, your total mana and how often you land attacks (magical only).
    Agl (Agility) – How often you are able to dodge attacks.
    Dex (Dexterity) – How often you land attacks (physical only).

    Rifts
    As time goes on in the game, Rifts appear at a random time (0-5 in game days) for a duration of half an in-game day. They always appear above ground, but can be anywhere on any loaded chunk (including in the middle of an ocean). They will also only appear if both faction worlds have at least 1 chunk loaded (does not require players to be in the world). Rifts allow a faction to teleport to the opposing faction’s world and do whatever they want there. However, when someone dies in the opposing faction’s world, they will be teleported back to their own on respawn.

    PvP
    The third world (pvpworld) has the nether environment. Both factions can access this world by creating a portal. To create a portal, make a standard obsidian portal rectangle and place a sign on any part of the active portal, if the portal is not 'lit' then it won't take. The first line of the sign should say @pvp (if you are in the pvpworld, a portal can be made back to your home world by typing @home as the first line). Once the portal is created, it will link to that faction’s “cage” inside of pvp. The cage is a room made completely of glass and is indestructible. If the opposing faction comes within 30 blocks of the cage, they will receive a warning. If they continue getting close they will instantly die. This is to prevent spawn camping. Experience is greater in pvp than in the normal worlds. Once altars are implemented they will also add incentive to go into pvp.

    Altars
    Altars still need to be added into pvpworld and are still in design phases. What they will be is areas that can be taken over by a faction. The owning faction will gain a benefit by owning the altar. They will also be in charge of defending their alters from attack by the opposing factions. I may add in mobs that only target the opposing faction to help defend, but again, it’s in the design phase.

    SpawnBlocks
    A spawnblock is a temporary spawn location created by the player. Spawnblocks can be created by any user that has enough money to do so by placing a sign on an obsidian block with the first line reading @setspawn. The amount it costs to create one is configurable in the config.yml file. Spawnblocks can hold up to 4 player’s spawn locations, all a user has to do is right click the block to add themselves to it. By default they have a life span of 20 spawns before they are destroyed. Anyone can destroy a spawnblock by breaking the obsidian block that holds the sign. Only the creator of the block can destroy the sign, destroying the spawn block. There is a glowstone on top of the spawnblock that allows for easier detection by those who would want to destroy it. Players spawn on top of the glowstone so hiding it with blocks would create an unsafe spawn for those bound to it. The glowstone is also unbreakable as long as the spawn block is active.

    FAQ - Please read this before requesting a change (not a bug):
    Show Spoiler

    Q: Can this be made to only run on one world instead of two/three?
    A: Yes!

    Q: I miss mobs a lot/do no damage. Why?
    A: As you level, mobs also level. If you're not keeping up with your dexterity and strength stats, you'll quickly notice that you won't be doing much to kill them. Always maintain your dexterity and strength (spirit if you're a priest or mage). If you've used the /changelevel gm command, this will also cause this unless you also balance your stats.

    Q: I feel my stats are fine, but I'm still missing too much or not doing enough damage. Can't anything be done?
    A: Post your level and stats. That way I can better balance the game. I know balancing needs to be done, but I can't do that unless I know how you're using stats and what needs to be adjusted.

    Well this is pretty much what I thought about, the guild leader will be able to create quests and the reward will be money (guild money).
    About the GM quests - the exp amount should be set according to different vars such as the amount needed to kill etc.

    Here is another idea for you :

    battle mage
    You probably wonder what is so good about this void mage, well here are the void mage's features :
    - Can equip cloth armor
    - Can use Stone sword
    - Can cast spell while not holding anything
    - Cannot use bows
    - Gains 2 int per level

    The battle mage will be stronger that the other classes, but it will be harder to level up!!
    The battlemages will need 2 times more EXP to level up, by that making this class more challanging.
    Battlemage will have less spells than a mage, all of his spells will be attack spells (that means no healing)

    and btw the basic commands don't work...
    I can't join any faction even after using the right command:
    /joinrifts dark mage
    if its not the right command pleas correct me

    You need to type /skill add <name> to add the skill to your list of available skills

    I will eventually, once I get it cleaned up a bit more. Right now it's pretty gross code lol

    That's on my list of things to do!

    Does it give you an error in the log? Is the portal on? You need to light the portal before you can place the sign on it and have it work. I need to document that, thanks for reminding me!

    That's the right command, when you join the server does it tell you to type /joinrifts blah blah blah? If you type /level, does it say You are level ##?

    So do mages actually get spells that you have inserted in the plugin? Or do you have to have somesort ofseperate plugin for that?

    Wilky

    Nitpick, please feel free to ignore! Any chance you'd change the name of the plugin, seeing as you copied AION's mechanics and then named it Rifts... =p
     
  13. if you reach level 5 say /skills and you see your avaible skills. to add the skill then type /skill add <name of the skill>
    Mage use a stick make a left klick to change the spell and shoot with the rightklick


    Yes it is inspirated by Aion and another game but try to make somthing new its not so easy and its a cool plugin


    again sry for my english

    I went and poked into Zalastri's server to give this a once-over.

    I'd say that if you plan on implementing this plugin, take your time and implementing P6 first. (Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance). I'd suggest an involved tutorial area that explains the classes' limitations/strengths, some shops or kits for starter gear, and an explanation of skills and how to rank your stats and skills up. It's a little confusing without some initial guidance.

    Personally, I went archer, and after getting three pieces of iron armor crafted I got seriously butt-hurt because I couldn't use it. And not being able to scrounge up the mats for a bow/stacks of arrows off the bat made things a bit difficult. I was having a LOT of difficulty getting mobs to drop string and feathers. Dunno if that's the plugin or just bad luck on my part.

    Dime, maybe ease the armor restrictions a bit, to say...no diamond armor, or make classes configurable (I havent tested this on my own server, just checked it out on Zalastri's) Also..'can wear cloth armor'...? That mean leather, or nothing?

    It's pretty sexy. I'm tempted to add this in, and make my central world a neutral trade city/initial spawn with restricted gates to light and dark. Problem is that'd take the tally up to 5 worlds (main, light, dark, pvp, and a combination tutorial/dungeon/jail/extra). Lag would sick if I didn't lock down borders hard.

    This plugin's in crazy good condition for an initial beta, tho. Keep it up.

    PS...neither Aion or Shaiya were original with portals as means of PvP. Just because somebody has implemented something similar once, doesn't mean you can't use it in your own fashion. I mean, cmon...how many times have you seen the classic elves/dwarves thing. And then the cookie cutter classes? Let's discuss the plugin, not other failed MMOs

    Updated to 1.02, it's a big bug fix version.

    NOTE: If you opt to change the world names, before restarting your server also rename the folder names of your worlds. If you don't, it will make new folders and worlds.

    I'll address more issues tomorrow, tonight I'm done and it's time to relax lol.
    @thecoolwolf cool banner!

    Is this a spinoff of RIFT? I'm assuming it is a spinoff since it is ridiculously close haha, love the ideas too.

    I've actually never played the Rift RPG, it was only after my initial alpha testing that a friend pointed out Rift was an actual RPG. By then I didn't care and kept my name lol.

    I found a bug o_o.
    I happened to target a Pig underwater(2blocks of water) and casted a Bolt lvl 1 on it.
    3 Zombie Pigmen Spawned :confused:.
    Just telling what happened to me. Maybe intentional maybe not.

    that happens if a pig gets hit by lightning in vanilla minecraft to^^ but just one of them are real, the 2 others are caused by a minecraft bug and are only client sided and cant hurt you or anything:p

    So can you pvp in the 2 normal worlds without making this separate pvp world? Seems like you'd already have a lot of trouble finding people to interact with on smaller server running 2 worlds. Running a 3rd just to kill people seems a bit much.
