Inactive [MECH] PvP Control v1.6 - Allows players to control if they can be attacked [818]

My first plugin release. After numerous threads, arguments, and issue suggestions and bugs, it's finally here.

NOTE: version 2.0 in the works. Follow the progress here.

PvP Control allows players to decide themselves if they want to fight other players. No longer will you have to worry about PvP griefers (and I have seen a few in my day). Whenever a player logs in, it tells him that PvP is off for him/her, and allows them to run the command "/pvp on" to turn it on. Only if the two combatants have PvP on will the attack work, otherwise it will cancel.

WARNING:
This plugin WILL NOT WORK if you do not change the pvp setting in the server.properties to true. To reiterate: in server.properties make sure it reads pvp=true

Version History:

NOTE: A version 2.0 is very soon to come. It will add much wanted features such as cooldown, killswitch, and even sparring

• 1.6: Removed redundant source code hidden in the jar file
• 1.5: Added ebean dependency and small details updated
• 1.4: My hand was forced, and I changed from onPlayerCommand() to onCommand() (it was going to be a feature of v2.0)
• 1.3: changed to onEventDamage() as per the newest build (also removed long caller). Make sure to use the latest build from http://ci.bukkit.org/ or use 1.2
• 1.2: changed package name to comply with EvilSeth's request (don't worry, v2.0 is coming)
• 1.1: allowed arrows to be controlled by PvP Control
• 1.0: fixed issue; now PvP cancel event is set to priority Low
• h.1: first release, had an issue I wanted worked out

NOTE: this only cancels bad PvP attacks, doesn't make good ones work. If another plugin prevents PvP in an area, or the PvP setting in the server settings file is set to false, it will still stop PvP attacks even if PvP Control is set to on for both combatants.

I can't continue my work on your plugin, I need some CVS for collaborate work. Release your 2.0 with github or else and maybe we will work together. =) Now I have a lot of work on my plugins and don't know when this work will over.

Some time later we can collaborate or I will make fork of your plugin in new thread.

But I will monitor your plugins life! =)

 

YOu should also make it so ops, or a permissions for admins, can kill anyone, that way we can stop griefers

 

Already been suggested. It's coming.

 

Is there any ETA for version 2.0 ?

 

soon (hopefully). I have a lot of the kinks already worked out, just need to get the little things done that makes it usable.

 

Request: Per-world pvp flagging. Permissions support basically...

 

Hoping that you are still developng this. And I hope this hasn't already been suggested to you. But I want this plugin for an arena type set-up. But I'm only concerned because the usage of /pvp on/off does not show up in the logs. Is there a way I can make this happen? If not, it would be greatly appreciated if you could do that. Otherwise people can cheat and there's no way I could really tell.

Edited to say: BTW this plugin has saved me from having to redo many many zones in order to allow pvp outside of"town." now, people can pvp anywhere as they want. This will get rid of the griefer problem but also present the fun of pvp. So, nice job! and thanks.

Edit(again): My problem with it showing up in the logs is no longer an issue because I downloaded another plugin of yours which shows all commands used in the logs. However this plugin doesn't seem to be working for me. I test it out with people on my server and they can hit me and I can hit them. Is it because I am OP? are there any changes I need to make? btw we both had /pvp off. Please keep developing this mod and unlike everyone else I admire the simplicity of it and with all the suggestions coming in you are going to be overrun with work. I think it's fine how it is. But any changes you make I'm sure they will be fine. =].

 

It will be nice if you could add multi world support. we would like to have PvP on in nethre

 

please update this for 602?

 

Yes, please update. .

 

I need to have time to figure out what broke exactly. I may not have time until this weekend, but it will be done, don't fret.

 

Hello,

broken in #612

I would like this too!

 

Any rough estimate on 1.4 support?

 

Oh, in the next update for MC 1.4 could you please include a way to disable or configure the message in the MOTD about PvP? ~ Thanks!

 

Custom messages are comming

When bukkit gets updated, I will update this plugin along with the others.

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

 

Thanks!

 

No link to the new version? Lol.

 

What do you mean? I thought I updated the current url to take you to the new version. Have you tried that? Is it working for anybody?

 

I used your site link, is that not right?

 

You still have it called 1.4

 

Let me check what's wrong. In the mean time, does the log have a "nag the dev of PvP Control to change blah blah blah"?

Ah that's the problem. I've stopped depending on my website as it's been more trouble than help. Use the dropbox links instead please.

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

 

Your site just lists the wrong version, it downloads from the other link as 1.5 It WORKS FINE. .

 

Hi,

Just wanted to let you know this unless you're already aware of it

 

Make sure you are downloading with the dropbox link, not his site. It works for me?

 

Sure I downloaded from dropbox. I'm using #617 atm.

Alright it seems that the dropbox link has changed again a few minutes ago. I've just redownloaded it and I guess it will work.

I appreaciate your concern

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

 

Woops. I fixed onLogin, but forgot that one . Updating now

EDIT: fixed without a new version number, so redownload from dropbox to get rid of the message.

 

thanks, everything is working fine now

 

In v2.0 will I be able to change the messages, like when you login and the others? This feature would appreciated .

 

This plugin is great and works but I was wondering if it was possible to force pvp on in certain areas? for example my server I want players to be able to toggle pvp everywhere but when they enter an arena it's forced pvp.
