[INACTIVE][MECH] RedstoneMobSpawn 1.1 - Spawn Creatures with circuits! [617]

RedstoneMobSpawn
Version: v1.1
PERMISSIONS SUPPORT ADDED!
Download and Source: https://github.com/VicWhiten/RedstoneMobSpawn
Click the download link on github to download the jar

This is the first plugin that I've put out in the open and advertised, and the first plugin I wrote that wasn't server specific for something we specifically needed. We wanted a way to control encounters with mobs more than just spawning in the darkness, but didn't want to have to have a moderator online to spawn them, so my idea was redstone. Think a Mob Spawner that you can hide and control. I hope you all like it!

Features:

• Allows the use of redstone circuits to spawn creatures and mobs
• uses signs for spawning, no commands
• Allows spawn location to be changed, not just on the sign
• uses Permissions to limit griefing

Changelog:

Version 1.1

• added permissions, either Op, GroupManager or Permissions
• updated for Minecraft Beta 1.4

Version 1.0

• First Release! WOOOO

Use:

This plugin allows you to use redstone circuts to spawn creatures on your server. A monster is spawned by powering a sign with redstone in any way. The sign must be powered, must be a free standing sign (not on a wall), and must follow this syntax:

I'm replacing the text sign stuff with pictures, just not now @ 5AM....
Sign Syntax:
------------------------
| MOBSPAWN |
| [name of creature] |
|<BlockFace> <distance>|
| |
------------------------

Where name of creature is whatever you want to spawn, BlockFace is a cardinal direction (I.E. north, east, south_west, north_west), and distance is the number of blocks in that direction you want the mob to spawn. If you don't provide a distance, it is assumed to be 1. If you completely omit the 3rd line, the creature will be spawned on the sign.

EXAMPLES:
------------------------
| MOBSPAWN |
| zombie |
| up 2 |
| |
------------------------
This will spawn a zombie 2 blocks above the sign, useful for putting signs under a block to hide them.

------------------------
| MOBSPAWN |
| pig |
| north |
| |
------------------------
This will spawn a pig one block to the north of the sign


------------------------
| MOBSPAWN |
| creeper |
| |
| |
------------------------
This will spawn a creeper on the sign. Hope you aren't nearby!

Permissions:
To use RedstoneMobSpawn, you must either

1. Be an Op
2. Have "redstonemobspawn.spawn" in your permissions, using either GroupManager or Permissions

Great!

 

awesome!
but there is only the source code and not a .jar file in the link

 

On the GitHub page there is a downloads link, the .jar file is hosted there.

 

Vic this plugin is amazing, my friend and I have been making an elaborate dungeon on our server that uses this plugin for added difficulty at certain points in the dungeon. If you want to see what we've done with it just come onto our server and ask for Nigma or Bernie, the ip is mc.minecraftbfc.com:22222

 

250 views 100 downloads and only 4 replys? There is no way this is bug free people, or that there are no requests

 

Is there any way to make some form of it permission based? Just because we use levelcraft on our server and anyone could troll around making signs or traps in their own homes etc to skill up etc...

 

Only request is an update for cb 590+. Can't test it!

 

Really good idea! Will have to try this out later.

 

looks cool, trying it now...

 

Can you limit the spawn distance? or make it configurable? To prevent jokers/warmongering factions building 'creeper cannons' at 100 blocks distance?

 

is there a jar file? all i see on your site is the source code... maybe im missing something?

 

On that page, to the right, is a Downloads button. From there you can download the source or the actual RedstoneMobSpawn.jar.

 

gotcha i only saw the .tar and the .zip thanks!

 

My only wish is Permissions support.

Having it default to an OP-only use without Permissions.

 

requesting b602 update, sadly no testing before this version of bukkit.

 

Seconding the permissions and 602 updates.

 

getting error: could not pass event REDSTON_CHANGE to RedstoneMobSpawn

mayby you have some ansers

 

Updated to 1.1!
Version 1.1

• added permissions, either Op, GroupManager or Permissions
• updated for Minecraft Beta 1.4

 

thx alot!

 

also having issues with

could not pass event REDSTONE_CHANGE to RedstoneMobSpawn

 

Same problem here

Code:

22:37:57 [SEVERE] Could not pass event REDSTONE_CHANGE to RedstoneMobSpawn
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.bukkit.World.spawnCreature(Lorg/bukkit/Location

pawnCreature(RedstoneMobSpawnBlockListener.java:103)
...

I have build #617

 

same prob bros ;(

 

You should make it so we can set the number of monsters we want to spawn at a time.

 

same prob ( 617 )

btw I have a plugin that use redstone to control the flow of water and lava, dunno if it may conflict or not.

I got the same build (617) and the same problem as the posts above me.

[SEVERE] Could not pass event REDSTONE_CHANGE to RedstoneMobSpawn

Would be great if you could fix it!

 

Hey,
today I tried to look at this issue, since we've been building a huge 'animal stadion' we wanted to get filled.
I get the error posted above when I'm using my remote server, runing CB617 and Debian. But if I run the same server (== same plugins) on my windows box everything is working fine.

I hope this might help you - I realy like the idea of ur plugin
Never mind, it seems like i found your error: the .jar you provide is not up to date? I forked ur project and built everything on my own - now its working fine I hope you wont mind if I share this jar?

 

@uberh4xor
Could you fix the link? When I click on your attached files it prompts a login to this site, then states that "This attachment cannot be shown at this time. Please try back later."

Or the OP could just fix it that would work too.

Edit: hopefully it's not just me...if the link is working for anyone else just reply

 

I just want to say--thanks, Vic. This addon is a godsend for the user made dungeons I make for my server! D:

 

im just getting an error for his link... hoping that this will get fixed!!! This is an awesome plugin!
