    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.

    Question. How do I get new skills as a mage? I type /skills and it says Current skill points:4 No available skill points.

    Also when I type /stats add # mp (or mana), nothing happens. The other stats work though.

    I love Shaiya, been playing for years.

    Soon as I read the light and dark sides, I knew where this was headed.

    Haven't tried it yet, as I am also a huge fan of mcMMO.

    I may have to make a second server now! Darn you!!! LoL!

    I had mistyped the original instructions. To add mp you add spr, which will also add mana. Skills start appearing at level 5. A mages first skill is magic arrow :)

    I played on Lailah for close to 3 years, the guild I started is still running there as far as I know lol. Your list of plugins makes me think my plugins need images too...lol

    So just wanted to share this with you, I made a separate server to test this out and when I chose my faction it flipped out on me and pushed me under the world...not sure what happened but I ended up having to restart the server and when I got back on I'm apparently in the light world and nothing can hurt me except for creepers and cactus (and falling damage) but the monsters just sort of sit there...I can't damage them either and I can't damage anything except for blocks, not even sheep to get wool or anything like that.

    Not sure where to put bugs whatnot that I find (sorry if this is the wrong place :p)

    Seems like a really neat plugin though I love the idea.

    Did you change your level at all? Type in /show miss and see if you don't get a message everytime you hit something. It seems like it spawned you in a weird place. I'll check it out. Thanks for the report!

    Is there an easy way to import this plugin into a pre built server? Can you just make dark and light sides have different warps instead of world as an option?

    i had pretty much the same problem as him and i also made a test server for this plugin. but for me it was only fall dmg that counted and creepers didn't dmg me ether. all monsters acted like i had god mode and skeletons arrows bounched off me with no effect and the stuff with spawn under the world i think he meant trapped inside blocks and that happend for me when i died but it was just to jump to get out. i also get huuuuuge lagg spikes at times but for some reason only when i was in the lightworld. in the darkworld it was perfect(never got got attacked by a mob there so i cant say if the mob dmg thing was only in the lightworld to)

    i realy love this plugin and i hope you will keep working on it!:D

    Edit: i turned on the miss notification and i dodge and miss like 99.9% of all attacks

    You may want to hook into iConomy correctly, as it is giving the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError error. See the iConomy post for how to correctly reference iConomy.

    I would prefer for the plugin to only work in specific realms. We have a war world that is perfect for this, but it does not work with the normal play, survival mode since that is not pvp based.

    Im testing skills on my computer and i have this issues:

    -If i kill a mob with Mage skill "plague", it doesn't drop nothing.
    -If i cast "meteor" 4 times, one near the other, it crashes server (kicks me and i cant rejoin) and i needed to restart it.

    With priest, same on Mage, poison kills without drop anything.

    This plug-in is looking gooood! One suggestion though, change the Priest class from wearing iron armor to cloth/leather. I've never seen any game which has Priest wearing iron items to defend themselves with ;p

    If anyone cares to try out this mod my server is valikorlia.dyndns.org

    I'm having a few issues, and have a few questions/suggestions about this mod.

    First, a few suggestions. I think better grouping of the commands and more verbose responses would be better. For example, the output of /stats + /skills + /level could fit on to one page. It'd be nice if this was grouped more tightly.

    Maybe /character could bring up

    Dude the Archer
    Level: 5 - Experience: 100
    Next level: [///// ] 60%
    -----------------------------
    Strength: 10 | Defense: 10
    Spirit: 10 | Intelligence: 10
    Dexterity: 10 | Agility: 10
    -----------------------------

    Cleaning up the output of /skills would pull the mod together. I'd like to capitalize the skills names, straighten out the columns, and change the descriptions a little if need be.

    Better skill switch indication would be nice. On left click I'd be happy with "Switched to TNT Arrow skill!" it feels better than "impale skill activated". Having the skill a different color then the rest of the message would be nice too. I guess I'm just asking for a more cohesive user interface in general.

    Can you introduce a town/faction system to this? Maybe just the bare bones of towny, claiming chunks as a town group, with the added idea that players from one world cannot edit the claimed chunks of players from another world, and a town subplot system with the ability to toggle full town editing off. I'm requesting this because it seems like the faction/town system should be integrated in to the mod since it spawns rifts. Rifts should stay out of player towns, but instead spawn outside of two opposing faction towns and promote warfare.

    Also, seeing as classes are limited to certain weapons can you make a diablo 2 esque prefix/suffix system for weapons? IE Freezing Sword of Agility gets freezing strike and +10% attack speed. Having enemies with things like that would make this mod extremely stand out, and I'd be willing to donate a fair amount over time.

    I seem to be getting killed upon entering the pvp world. Every time. Doesn't seem to be spawning me in the ground, I just die.

    Custom in game world names that other plugins see would be better than having my motd say Welcome to Valikorlia 'darkworld'.

    Being able to set spawn locations for both factions as well as for the people in limbo that haven't chosen yet

    Monsters seem to repel arrows after a while. Cant really be more specific than that.

    Last but not least, and an important one imo, is differentiation between dark/light members. I think they should know for sure when another faction member is approaching. Perhaps other faction members have flames trailing them or you get the creeps in your chat when you're near?

    I know this is a lot of stuff, but this is what I was hoping this mod would be come.

    I still play on Teos, not as much as I used to, because Minecraft eats up alot of my time now. :p Combining both games into one... this could be great! :D

    Here made these up quickly, do what you want with them.

    It won't because I built it so that each faction has its own world. After the plugin is more stable I will look into making it a single world server.

    First, back up your prebuilt world. Name the world folder lightworld or darkworld and start up the server. Rifts should see that the world exists and not overwrite it. The single world version will be looked at when the plugin is more stable.

    I love his quest idea, but it will have to be modified to only work with GMs instead of guild leaders to prevent someone from forming a guild, creating quests to max levels and then skip the leveling process. I want to make it so that a guild leader can create a quest, but it will only give out guild money. In my opinion, only people running the server should be able to introduce money/exp into the game unnaturally.

    That name has promise lol

    Can you post your level and stats? As you level, mobs also "level" to keep them somewhat relevant. If you use the /changelevel command without changing your stats, mobs will have a much higher agility than you and you will always miss them/not damage them. The level and stats information will help me balance the system as I'm sure it needs it lol. Thanks for the report!

    The new version I started yesterday supports iConomy 5, the current version for download only supports 4. It'll be up later for download, thanks :)

    Rifts look like standard nether portals:
    oo
    o o
    o o
    o o
    oo

    They're not the easiest to find since they can cause quite a problem for the other faction, but I do print out their location in the server console incase the server admin wants to disclose their location :)

    That's something I can do, makes sense. Thanks for the suggestion!

    Wow awesome report! Any of the DoTs (plague, poison, etc) lower the target's health using the setHealth() method since I don't know of a way to fake actual damage. When an entity gets to setHealth(0) killing them, it does not throw a death. Instead it just removes them, it's kinda weird. While I tried to fix experience handling for this I missed the drops. I'll try and get those added back in manually.

    Meteor is kind of heavy and I'm leaning towards removing it. I've gotten the kick once before and had to shut down the server because the threads got out of sync, I believe it's caused by server lag and my moving it every second. I'm going to try and rewrite it so that it's not as heavy because I kind of wrote it in a hurry and I know it can work better. For now, I'd say avoid it.

    Arrowrain creates 100 arrows that fall from the sky. I think servers have a problem handling that many entities and it causes a bit of a lag, I don't know that there's a way I can stop the lag so I may just find a new ultimate archer skill. If you have any suggestions let me know :)

    I'll have a look at whirl and heal, I overlooked the possibility of setting health too high so that could be a problem lol.

    Is /toworld sending you into lava? It's supposed to teleport you to pvpworld's spawn which may be dangerous, the portals just take you inside of a cage though.

    I've played one that let priests wear heavier armor and it kind of made sense since they're a support class and not heavy damage characters. But it may make them too powerful, I'll keep it in mind when I tweak balancing some more :)

    The more suggestions the better! I've pretty much reached my creativity and more than welcome constructive criticism and suggestions to make it better. I like the suggestion of grouping some of the output together, I can do that in /status fairly easily.

    I want to stay away from customizing the skill descriptions, but I can definitely clean up it's display a bit. Getting everything perfectly aligned is difficult because I don't have tabs, but I'll at least try and get it cleaned up a bit.

    I'll get the skill indication cleaned up as well, good suggestions there :)

    I have a guild system being planned and that goes along with the 'towny' like idea. I'll give the uneditable areas a shot, but I have a feeling that will be pretty heavy.

    I thought about a weapon naming/stats having system since that's always what made raids and such important. That'll be a little further down the road if I do it, it's a fantastic idea but it would have to be implemented correctly and that could be difficult to do.

    I'll look into the PvP world error, that's the second report of that and it's been working for me on my test server. Do you remember if it created the cages correctly or not? Should be in the server output when the plugin was first installed.

    I'll add that to the config, I'll also write it up so it renames the world for you from the config so you don't have a custom dark world name folder and a darkworld folder. Same with spawn locations, I'll add that to the gm command list.

    As for mobs repelling arrows, is it the arrow missing or damage not being done? Difference being the arrow missing will output to the player that the attack missed if you type /show miss. If they're missing it's because their agility is outdoing your dexterity, but I think I'm going to have to rework that. If it's not doing damage it's because your str is lower than their defense, which I may also have to rework. If you could post your level/stats it would help me in my balancing efforts.

    Originally I wanted to make the opposing factions have different colored name tags, but from what I've read that will disable custom skins and everyone would get the steve skin. Not sure it's something I was going to do because I wasn't sure how important skins were to people lol. I am trying to figure out a way to differentiate though, thanks for the ideas!

    Thanks for the images! I'll have to update my signature with them :)

    Skills are only available after level 5. If you type /skills, you'll see the skills you can add to your character by typing /skill add <name>

    A config option to turn miss notification on by default would be sweet.

    What I'd like to do with my server is start people in a room where they can physically choose dark or light. Can you make it so I can put down a selection area that will cause the player to automatically join a faction? Like saying "/riftselect good" as an admin will put a zone there that will force player on good side when touched.

    Anything you can do to make the skills/beginning more intuitive would be great. The same area selection idea would work with class chosing as well, so I could warp the player to a class selection hall.

    That's an interesting idea, I can look into doing that a bit later down the road.

    Something is causing duplicate rift portals. It might be /reloading while a rift is open, either way I've got three already that don't do anything.

    Bingo, if you reload while a rift is open it won't disappear. I'll add in a fix for that that removes active portals if the plugin is disabled.
     
  27. hm the @pvp sign on a portal dosnt work for me maybe i do something wrong.
    i place a sign on the portal with @pvp on the first line and nothing happend

    This would be stunning if I could have it run in its own world, and not have it apply to my other ones.

    any chance of open sourcing this? I like the concept of the classes (and they seem much better than the other ideas on here) - but I don't want to use the factions/world/pvp style you've used.

    So I have been testing this plugin, and I am not sure if there is something I have to do but for some reason mage spells arn't working. I am not sure if maybe I need assign skills or that person or what but right/left clicking with the stick does nothing different
     
  31. leftklick into the air and you need to add it first with /skill <name> then it works fine. on rightklick you shoot a snowball if it hits a target the you will cast. the level 5 skill is invisible "magic" arrow
