sorry for not explaining. As I don't actually play the game that much, I was hoping that there could be a feature where instead of assigning a player a number, you could actually assign the console it's own number or email. I realize that that may be a bit difficult to do, but it would be quite useful for server admins (us) to be able to possibly receive notifications when ANYONE joins, not just people who you are watching. If none of your OPs are online, then you would still be able to protect against griefers. I made my server public for about thirty minutes, during which time I was griefed by at least 3 people. I am not going to make it public again, as my friends spend countless hours making those buildings. I think that this plugin could help alert admins/OPs as to when to monitor the server. I hope this makes more sense than my last post.
Thanks!

 

Still doesn't work please send me finished config file with email [email protected] tel: 731047881 T-Mobile-Czech

 

Still having issues, i tried it
with
07531*********
then 007531********
then 447531*****

Still, delivery failure notifications. It stil lsays "SENT" from the game, but no text is received. I am on a contract, don't know if that will affect it?

 

Is it possible to have an option where the user can watch another user, but Not be texted if they join while they are online?

example:

- John types: /text watch user Billy

John logs off.

Billy logs on.

John receives a text message saying Billy is online.

John logs online to play with Billy

Billy logs off.

John STAYS ONLINE.

Billy logs on again, but because John is logged in to the server when Billy logged in, No text is sent to John.

 

yes this is actually already a feature but I forgot to let users be able to activate it.

It's not generating a config file for me :S

 

So what do I need to do to activate this? Or will it be available in the next version?

 

Is it free to send a message to a phone from minecraft? Or is it up to the phone company? How does it work?

 

Request providers:
Sunrise-Switzerland
Swisscom-Switzerland
Orange-Switzerland

 

It uses the cost of one text. So if you have a unlimited texting plan, it its free, with the only cost being the texting plan. If you don't text people, and only want to use texting for your minecraft server, I suggest you find out the cost for one individual text (At&t charges ten cents (.10) for one text if you do not have any texting plan. If you wouldn't text that much, but could text friends or family (and for use with the server,) you could just buy a 200-text plan, where you could send/revieve 200 text messages a month. I suggest contacting your provider and explaining what you want. They should be able to help you.

 

HA HA HA

Someone was up at 3:10 Am Read the phone time

 

This is fcking awesome
Btw. I'm a little suspicious about this, is this free? xD

 

Getting error on Bukkit #766
EDIT: --After filling in the Config file, the error stopped.

 

Can you add Universal Mobile ?

 

Could you add a scandinavian operator called Telefinland

 

yea first i get a error in the consol saying there is no config file and stuff and then i try adding my phone number to it and it says verizon is not supported!!??!?!?!?!

 

Could you support Vodafone NL ?

 

So I installed the plugin, but it didnt generate any files, config or anything else. Am I missing something or is this a bug?

 

can you support tracfone.im in us

 

mts or мтс need
sorry bad eng

 

its not texting my phone...is there a certian why the number has to be typed in? example: 1-234-567-8910 or 12345678910??

 

can you please add vodafone for iceland vodafone.is

 

could you add Revol please?

 

don't work on Bk 766 for me

 

Also, add MTS please.

 

I installed it and I am getting 0 errors.

But when Im in game (My permissions are set to everything) it says Network Verizon is not supported.
but .. the List clearly lists Verizon.

I did /text add Verizon 5151234567 (insert my real number)

 

Code:

/text add Virgin-Mobile 12345678910 - DIDNT WORK
/text add virgin-mobile 12345678910 - DIDNT WORK

@Codisimus Virgin-Mobile... doesnt work... Typed

Any idea?

 

Try a server restart, the new version I am working on should not require the server restart
P.S. I would edit your post to get rid of your number unless you want it public
EDIT: nvm about the number i just read wut you wrote =P

To anyone interested: here is a beta version of TextPlayer that allows sending texts back to the server. With this version anyone with the node textplayer.admin has the ability to stop your server by sending a text saying /stop so be careful with it. I do not take any responsibility for this beta version not working correctly or allowing non admin to run op commands.
Current commands:
/list
/playerlist
/who
/pl
^ all of the above send a list of online players

you can also use normal serve commands such as:
/rl
/tp
/stop
You should need textplayer.admin to use these.

if the text doesn't start with '/' then it will simply broadcast the message

Please post any errors you find or any ideas for commands. Again be careful with using this bc it may allow anyone to shutdown your server by text.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I cant seem to get this too work! I install it...and open the saved file, and there is nothing in there, could you give me what i need to put in the saved file?

 

Can you add this carriers?:
