CustomDifficulty ​

The Plugin to adjust the difficulty in SMP​

Latest version: 4.5.0​

blank line ​

​

BLANK LINE : D : D ​

CustomDifficulty provides a lot of features to change the all around difficulty in Minecraft.
You can change the monster's HP, damage, aggressiveness and more! You are also able to modify the player's damage.
Each difficulty is stored in its own file - which enables you to create as many difficulties as you like! It's possible to set a difficulty for a certain region only (Use the built-in regions, or WorldGuard regions). This enables you - for example - to create hard dungeons with ease.
For more information, take a look at the 'Features' section below.

Please report any bugs you may encounter!

If you are a developer and take a look at the source, please let me know if you have some improvements! I'm still new to this (Java/programming in general) and want to get better.

Features:

• Change monster's hp (200 HP is max - but that should be enough, a player has 20)
• Change monster's damage - Let them beat you up - or not even scratch you :>
• Change aggressiveness of monsters and animals. (Aggressive, Passive, Friendly)
• Change if monsters burn in sunlight.
• Spawn any mob, anywhere - naturally! Giant, 'monster' and sheep in any color included!
• Define spawn chance.
• Define min/max height for mobs to spawn.
• Define min/max light level for mobs to spawn.
• Define block types mobs will only/will never spawn on.
• Define custom drops for each mob in each difficulty.
• Define a loot-multiplier to let monsters drop more items!
• Limit mobs per server/world/chunk
• iConomy support! (For monster-killing rewards)
• Change player's damage.
• Multi-world support!
• Permissions support!
• WorldGuard support!
• Create regions, each with a custom difficulty!
• No need to restart/reload the server to apply changes, simply use the /difficulty reload command!
• All (reasonable) commands can be used from the console!

How to use:

Click me :) Please don't click me again :(

• Copy CustomDifficulty.jar into the /root/plugins folder.
• Download WorldEdit (If you want to use regions) and place it into the /root/plugins folder as well.
• Difficulties are located in the /root/plugins/CustomDifficulty/difficulties folder. Each difficulty is in its own [difficulty].yml file.
• Simply change the values of the default configs and/or create new config files. The plugin will load all *.yml files inside the difficulties folder automatically on reload.
• If you remove a configuration node, this plugin won't change anything of the corresponding event, thus preventing conflicts with other plugins.
• You can create regions with the /difficulty region [regionCommand] commands and set difficulties for each of them independently! (See 'Commands and Permissions' below)

Note that you must notuse tabs in *.yml (YAML) files. If you do, it will mess up the format and Bukkit will throw you a million errors (something like *snakeyaml* ) :>

Important notes:

Click me :) Please don't click me again :(

• All configuration nodes are case sensitive and your world's names shouldn't contain special character, as it might mess up the configuration nodes!
  If a configuration node does not exist, Bukkits default will be used - or nothing happens at all.
  The plugin will check if the monster/player is in a region first (if enabled - see below)
  If the monster/player is in no region, the world's difficulty settings will be used.
• Slimes are handled according to their size.
• Wolves are handled according to their tamed/untamed status.
• Creepers are handled according to their powered/unpowered. status.
• The last three points exclude the following nodes:
  spawnChance, spawnOnlyOn, spawnNotOn, lightLevelMin, lightLevelMax
• Creepers have a floating point (e.g. 1.65) damage value and it's used as multiplier, not as fixed damage. This value applies to the damage only, not the explosion range/radius.
• Wild wolves can be aggressive. They will attack a player on sight, but it is still possible to tame them - unless the player fights back.
• Tamed wolves HP will always be read from the worlds difficulty! (To avoid exploits like healing it in a region where it as a maximum of 100 hp and then move to a region with a maximum of 50 hp)
• Player's damage will be calculated like this:
  Round( (usualDamage * damageMultiply) + damageAdd )
  damageAdd is an integer.
  damageMultiply is a floating point value.
  usualDamage is the players default damage (e.g. 2 with fists, 5 with diamond pickaxe) - might be different if another plugin modified the event damage before CustomDifficulty did!
  You can use different values for Player vs Player and Player vs Monster. You can also set negative values - but a negative multiplier is not recommended.
• Regions are disabled by default! If you want to use them, go to your config.yml(not difficulty.yml!) and set useRegions for the specified actions to 'true' (without quotes!)
  I disabled them by default do increase performance (a tiny, tiny bit , unless you have 1 million regions in one world) and I guess not everyone will use them.
• Change difficulty of (regions or worlds) by using the corresponding command where difficulty = one of your /difficulties/[difficulty].yml without the ".yml" extension!

Commands and Permissions:

Click me :) Please don't click me again :(

Permission node to receive rewards: 'CustomDifficulty.reward'
Ops can use all commands and permission nodes are case sensitive!
bold = mandatory
underlined = optional
" | " = "or"

Difficulty-related commands:

• /difficulty help - Displays the help / lists commands and descriptions.
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.help'
• /difficulty - Displays difficulty of the world the player is currently in - or of all worlds if the command user is no player (e.g. console)
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.check'
• /difficulty check <World | all> - Displays the difficulty of <World>, <all> worlds or the world the player is currently in if <World> is not specified. If the command user is no player, it will list all worlds.
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.check'
• /difficulty <change | set><World> <Difficulty> - Change difficulty of <World>, or the world you are currently in if none specified.
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.change'
• /difficulty reload - Reloads the config files. Use this after changing/adding difficulties or other configurations!
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.reload'
• /difficulty performance - Counts the used time for each feature for the next 10 seconds. Use this if you think the plugin causes lag, and to find out which part of it.

Region-related commands (These require WorldEdit and WorldGuard):
All commands start with /difficulty region *** - Replace "***" with one of the below:

• help - Displays help about region commands.
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.region.help'
• <set | change> <World> <Difficulty> - Change difficulty of world <World>, or the world you are currently in, if <World> is not specified, to <Difficulty>
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.region.set'
• info <World> <RegionName> - Displays some information about region <RegionName> on world <World> or the world you are currently in.
  Permission node: 'CustomDifficulty.region.list'

Note:
If you are using WorldGuard regions, only the region commands 'info' and 'set | change' are available. To define new regions, you WorldGuard's '/region define' command.

• Fixed: Ghats can now be friendly. (passive too, but they will behave as friendly. :/) Friendly ghasts hardly move though.
• Added: OPs will receive a message on login, if a new of CD is available. Can be turned off, config.yml -> global.checkForUpdates

Old versions (open) Old versions (close)

Version 4.4.0 | 9/28/2011

• Changed: Mob limit configuration; Nodes you have to use now:

Code:

global:

worlds:
    [worldname]:
        mobAggressiveLimit: 75
        mobPassiveLimit: 75
        mobFriendlyLimit: 75

You can remove all other limit nodes, they aren't used anymore.

• Added: A new config node inside the difficulty files:

Code:

global:
    dropOnlyWhenKilledByPlayer: false

Should be self-explanatory, but you have to add it manually if you want to enable it.

• Fixed: A NPE inside the spawn algorithm.
• Fixed: Another NPE inside spawn algorithm (dev build only)

• Added: Multiverse-Core will now load before CD does.
• Added: Register support. All major economy plugins should work with CD now.

• Fixed: Feeding wolf in 1.8; Item amount decreases and Raw Flesh added as food.
• Fixed: Getting rewards with projectiles (arrows) works now.

• Changed: Mobs will now spawn in at least 2 block high rooms instead 1 block only. (To prevent Zombies and other tall mobs to suffocate.)

Version 4.2.3 | 7/28/2011

• Changed: Giants attack players up to 3 blocks below them instead of 1.
• Changed: config.yml nodes: spawnInterval, aggressivenessInterval and burnsInSunlightInterval are now in the worlds.worldname section. You can remove the global ones.

• Changed: performance command.
• Fixed: Another bug, I just don't remember which one... I should start writing it down immediately

• Fixed: Mobs can now spawn in snowy areas.
• Added: Giants should attack players now, they don't do it naturally... (Please test this )

Version 4.0.4 | 7/11/2011

• Added fix for incompatible iConomy versions.

Version 4.0.3 | 7/10/2011

• SpawnChance will only affect naturally spawned mobs. (I was too stupid to find it previously - lol). Also, It will never affect the spawn behaviour of 'monster' and giant in any way, even if a plugin spawns them as 'naturally'. If you use another plugin to make them spawn, it should be possible to change the spawn amount there.
• isAggressive and burnsInSunlight features are now available for animals as well.

Version 3.5.1 | 5/7/2011

• Added check for a nearby mob spawner for reward and lootMultiplier.

I've been away on a business trip for 10 days. I will get back to testing this plugin later today

I'm getting it also with the same above..

 

@RugRats & @morizuki
Somehow, projectiles (Fireballs & Arrows) are sneaking into the aggressiveness check. Don't ask me how, . I also wasn't able to reproduce the error, but I'll fix this and upload it in a minute.

About being able to kill giants from below: well, that's something you can do with any mob. Anyways, I changed something and now they will take damage even if they are up to 3 blocks below them.

By the way, still no progress on the ram issue, I can't find anything. :/

 

How can i save myself from this?



Like turn down the spawn chance or something? ATM without godmode the nether is useless lol. EDIT: This pic didn't get them all theres a ton behind me to lol.

 

@RugRats
Oh wow, this is insane.
Well, you can do the following:

• Increase spawnInterval (slows down mob spawning)
• Set mobChunkLimit to 1. (config.yml)
• Decrease spawnChance of ghasts (difficulty.yml)

 

Thanks instead of spawn interval being in global can you copy it and paste it in world_nether: config section?

 

Uhm, you can copy and paste it there, but it won't do anything
Hmm, I guess I should change it to support multiple worlds, eh?

 

Yes you should!

 

Alright, I'm already working on it

 

Man your good.

 

Uploaded v4.2.3.
If you update from 4.2.2 or below, change your config.yml nodes. (see change log).

@RugRats
thanks :>

 

Thanks and good job but!

Yep, change initMessages to false, inside the config.yml

 

Wow I never saw that thanks!

 

You're welcome.

 

Hey Pasukaru, I noticed you're online.

I just installed the latest version of this plugin on my CB953 server and I'm getting unknown command errors when I type in /difficulty.

do you think I need to use an older version of the plugin?

 

Hmm, are you sure you installed it correctly?
The CustomDifficulty.jar should be located inside the following folder:
root/plugins/CustomDifficulty.jar
It should work with 953, I think
To be honest, you should update to cb 1000, because of bugfixes.

 

I'm actually using Cheese Daddy to host my server so all I have to do is upload the plugins and such.

All my plugins are working (using about 20 of them) and I just installed customdifficulty and changed the config around. But I can't use any commands such as /difficulty

 

@KrebsCOHO
Can you post a screenshot of your folders?
I tried with cb 953 and it runs fine.

 

oh.. can we configure the Giant too? like what u've changed in his attacking??

and i don't know if u can, but can you also do the raidius of the mobs can see? so like they don't farm using arrows?

 

Sure, this shows my folders it cuts off but the rest of the .jars are down there

 

@morizuki
You mean how many blocks below a giant a player will take damage?

Uhm well, I can make the radius customizable, but the maximum is still 16 (the current radius), because mobs will just stand there if the player is too far away. And it's not possible to make mobs move (as far as I know).

@KrebsCOHO
That's really weird.
Do you get any errors on server start?

@KrebsCOHO
Oh wait, are you using the console to test the commands?
If you use the console, type 'difficulty' (without the slash).

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

Theres an error in one of your config files.
Make sure you don't indent with tabs (Use spaces)
Post your files if you cant fix it

 

I'll post it up on here just incase you might be able to spot it quicker than I

 

yeah below the giant or in front of the giant.. or not just the giant, other mobs too..

oh so we're currently using the max radius ok then.. but it's kinda cool to if we can set the radius of the mobs..

 

@KrebsCOHO
I think the errors is in your default.yml.

Changing attack distance for mobs could be complicated. I can use a custom one for giants because they don't attack naturally, but zombies, spiders, etc do.

I'm not sure if I'll add a customizable radius. At least not until mobs will start moving, so I'm actually waiting for a new Minecraft and/or bukkit version to make this possible.
Also, a high radius can reduce performance dramatically.

 

I was thinking it might of been in the first config file since the error It was showing was about aggressiveness.

Here's the default.yml:

 

@KrebsCOHO
Hmm, they both look alright to me.
Delete them and let it generate new ones - then it should definitely work.
