[INACTIVE][FUN/ADMN] Spyer 1.5_1 - invisibility for moderating and pvp!(alternative to Vanish) SPOUT

SPYER HAS A NEW HOME!

WARNING! THIS PLUGIN REQUIRES SERVER SIDE SPOUT! CLIENTS DO NOT HAVE TO DOWNLOAD ANYTHING!
WARNING! OLD PERMISSION SYSTEM IS NOT SUPPORTED! YOU WILL NEED A BUKKIT PERMISSIONS STANDARD COMPLIANT PERMISSIONS SYSTEM!
Hotfixed SpyerFun on 16th of August. Version number of the jar didn't change. Fixed a bunch of bugs.
SpyerFun - a plugin that allows playersto become invisible for some time. Each second the player "eats" one item out of the stack he is holding (hider item, sugar by default). While invisible, mob can and will still attack the player, although other players (exceptions are implemented) can not. The player will reappear when he either runs out of the hider item or switches to another item in his action bar, e.g. a sword.
SpyerAdmin - a plugin that allows moderators to hide themselves for an unlimited amount of time, as well as simulating them leaving. This is a constantly updated alternative to Vanish, with much more features and configurations!
Thanks to brafenschlug for this hilarious video of moderators playing pranks on players!

Features:

• Now uses Spout! This plugin is no longer CPU heavy!
• Allows players to become invisible for a set amount of time!
• Adds more fun to PVP.
• Allows administrators to hide themselves and simulate them quitting! Overrides msg,r and list.
• Stops players from picking things up while using SpyerAdmin (see the configuration section)
• Knocks players out from invisibility (SpyerFun) when they get damaged (see the configuration section)
• Knocks players out from invisibility (SpyerFun) when they left-click a block (see the configuration section)
• Now reload friendly!

How to use (SpyerAdmin):

• Use /spy to become and stop being invisible (toggled).
• Use /quit to simulate you quitting/joining (toggled).
• Place 1 piece of the indicator item into your quickbar. It will indicate if you are hidden or not. By default it is glowstone that turns into sulphur. You can configure that in plugins/Spyer/SpyerAdmin.conf.

How to use (SpyerFun):

• Right click with the "hider" item, every second it will eat up one item from the stack.
• To add/change "hider" items, go to plugins/Spyer/items.yml. You'll see something like this:
  Code:

  {352: 3000, 353: 1000}

  Items are separated by commas. The ID is the right value, and the time of usage (per block) in milliseconds(HAS to be dividable by 50!). So if I want to add clay to work for 10 seconds per piece, I will do something like
  Code:

  {352: 3000, 353: 1000, 337: 10000}

  Note: by default, bones and sugar are used.

Installation instructions, downloads:

Install server-side Spout. No Spout client required.
Extract the contents of the bundle(Spyer.zip) into the plugins folder.

SpyerAdmin.jar
SpyerAdminCommands.jar
SpyerFun.jar

Instructions for different setups:

• Essentials: Download SpyerInstaller, put it in the server directory and run it from terminal(console). Go to configuration->4.
• Vanilla Bukkit: go to (server directory)/plugins/Spyer. Open repo.conf, replace everything with
  Code:

  http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16258042/SpyerAdminRepos/Vanilla/

• CommandBook: Special version for you! semi-direct Replace SpyerAdminConmmands.jar with this version!

Configuring:

List of permissions:

1. spyer.spy (Players who have this have access to the /spy and /quit commands, without permissions checks for op powers)
2. spyer.seeAll (Players who have this can see people who are hidden, without permissions checks for op powers)
3. spyer.fun (Players who have this can use SpyerFun, without permissions defaults to true)
4. spyer.stopmobs.admin (Stops moderators from being attacked by mobs while hidden)
5. spyer.stopmobs.fun (Stops players from being attacked by mobs while hidden)

Files:

• spyer.yml - responsible for holding timing data. If syncWithScheduler is true, the plugin will use the bukkit's scheduler (recommended). If false, use Java timers. refreshRate defines the time in ticks (in milliseconds if syncWithScheduler = false). Add the optional field coolDown and set its value to your cooldown time in milliseconds (for SpyerFun, time in between invisibility uses). Add pickUp: true to allow picking up items while hidden in SpyerAdmin. To knock out people from SpyerFun when they damage an entity, add "onDamage: true". To knock out people from SpyerFun when they left click a block, add "onBlock: true". To stop invisible players (SpyerFun) from damaging other living entities, add "noDamage: true". Boolean "wait" allows/disallows the plugin to delay reloading to give them time to hide.
• repo.conf - holds the url of the repository from which SpyerAdmin will update the script.
• script.js - compatibility layer between plugins. e.g. Essentials script will simulate Essentials commands, Vanilla script will simulate the normal minecraft commands.
• items.yml - holds the list of items used in SpyerFun
• SpyerAdmin.conf - holds indicator item ids for SpyerAdmin

Modifying scripts:

1. Comment out all the lines in repo.conf.
2. Modify the script.
3. If you want to update the script, you can get it from [repopath]/script.js

Version: v1.5_1

Known issues

• If you get a NullPointer when enabled (that contains something like "at nickguletskii200.SpyerAdmin.CustomHandling.<init>(Unknown Source)", then download this and put it into your jre's lib directory. You might also need to install Rhino. Disclaimer: this file is a part of the OpenJDK package.

Heh. Probably something stupid in the Essentials code.

You did not install it correctly.

 

oh

oh what did i do wrong?

 

You didn't unpack the configs.

 

Ahh kk ty fix'd

 

@nickguletskii
Thanks for including the no-pvp thing... but:
- did you update the commandbook version?
- no config file is created
- the default is pvp=true? since I could harm others while invisible
- if the config is manually placed it cannot unzip, it says 'Error unzipping: Library cannot extract this entry. Version required is (788)'.
- it does not take over the /list command from commandbook correctly, I'm still on the list (I did /quit, not /spy), and the names are not ordered by group anymore.
- after I do /quit, its says I'm invisible and that I quit, when I do /quit again I turn visible... and I have to do /quit a THIRD time to make the join message appear.

I use version 1.3.3 with CB820 (has some fixes over 818)
no errors in log

 

SpyerFun isn't dependent on command plugins.
The config is spyer.yml
Yes, default is true.
What? It works for me.
That is because you can see everyone, right?
And that is weird, because it doesn't happen for me.

 

Not dependent, I know, but you do have an extra link for a special version for commandbook users, so something is different right?
There is no spyer.yml here, no Spyer folder, nothing, and if I try putting it in manually I get that error.
And /list should still order the names by group... removing spyer fixes it so it must be something spyer is doing.

 

That is only for SpyerAdmin.
Well, the problem is your archiver, because it works fine for me.

 

So others will still see the group specific name list?
I'm sure I can find a workaround for the archiver... weird though, never had trouble before

 

CommandBook doesn't sort names by groups.


Aaaah, it is time to release my customisable commands plugin so I can finally drop support for these damned command plugins.

 

Not using permissions.

Could you remove the 'Permissions system not detected, default to OP' spam that appears in console.
Once at bootup is fine but when I'm in game its logging that message with every block placement. Unneeded, I know who is OP. Great plugin.

 

It does, though it is an option that needs to be enabled in the config.

Code:

online-list:
    colored-names: false
    grouped-names: true  <-----
    show-max-players: true

But if you do not plan on supporting it I'll go back to Vanish, its reported to work on 818.
Thanks for the effort though.

There is no sorting in there. You might be using some unofficial/really outdated version.

Vanish has no pseudo-quit features. You can easily disable pseudo-quit in Spyer.

Patched that up. Redownload. Version number didn't change because it isn't a major change.

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

 

I used 1.5.1, and now 1.5.2, which is the newest version, and I tell you when I do /list it sorts by group...
I'll try later tonight with disabling the pseudo-quit.


idea?

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

I dont know shit about java, BUT... I guess you intercept the /list command eh? and replace it with your own (substracting the 'quit' player).
Could you also intercept the actual /list output in whatever form it comes and do a search & replace before passing it on to the client...?

 

Cool idea, I wish it was possible, but I can't see a way of intercepting the messages.

 

OK... another one .
Can you access the commandbook config (read) and output in the correct format with or without grouping? (still assuming you intercept the command and do the output yourself).

 

The problem is that I don't see any grouping in the source code, so I can't replicate the command exactly.

I am going to release my customisable, scripted commands plugins that is going to simplify it for me and hopefully many other developers. That means that different plugins will be able to modify the behaviour of other plugins commands. This also means that the server owners will just have to delete a script to remove a command and modify the script for custom behaviour.

 

I dont think people will start using ANOTHER basic command plugin just to have seemless integration with some spy plugin.... I know I wont.
But I appreciated your motivation.

If I send you a screenshot from the commandbook player list, could you then replicate it? if its 99% perfect it will be good enough, noone will notice.

 

I am not aiming for that. I am aiming at making a fully customisable command plugin, which would also help my case.

Well, I can't guarantee anything, but I will try my best.

 

Its not just ANOTHER essentials/commadbook clone, 'scuse me, "fork", like every other default command plugin out there. Its totally different from the very core, and people will realise that.

 

Please enlighten me.
SK got me pretty convinced he made the most decent and solid command plugin available now. It didn't break the last few MC updates.
Convince me and I will honestly consider it, I try not to be a fanboy of any particular plugin/developer, so please give me your best shot.

 

Basically, the plugin itself just loads the commands. All commands are stored in separate files. The commands are written in javascript, which means that if you don't like something, you can easily modify that part. Something missing? You can write your own command, using a simple template! Need a library from Java? Easily - JSR223 is used.

I am in the stages of writing some standard commands.

CB #818

 

Hey. Im about to launch the something like thiefcraft server, and may i ask: can you add the ability to player go invisible in the set amount of lighting? e.g. if the player is in the shadows, he will turn invisible, and if in light (torch, sun) he will become visible. Also, the ability to kick player off the invisible, if someone is 1 block away from him or standing just right to player? (well, all stuff can be configured, i guess) This can use some sort of cooldown, i guess. e.g. if you kicked off the invisible mode, you cant go invisible for some time

 

well the CPU problem has to be because of you because it only happened when your plugin was in.
and I do not have "essentials" or any other command plugin.

I think this is just a bunch bs that you keep re posting because you are too lazy to fix the problems.
I have read this allover the comments you always say the same thing "it's because of essentials" and stuff.

in my opinion I don't care if vanish no pickups is "dead" I am still gonna use it over your piece of crap cause they know what they are doing.
I have never had a problem ever using vanish no pickups.
