Need a ranking plugin.

I have searched dev.bukkig.org and seem to come up pretty empty when it comes to a auto-ranking plugin. Basically, I want players to auto rank up on my server using the time played as a base. I use to use rank market, but people would farm dirt and sand to get money to buy their rank quickly. So I would rather have them wait a few hours as opposed to buying it.

Secondly, I need a plugin to handle what Sign Rank once did. It doesn't have to be a sign, just when someone passes a quiz, I had sign rank there to promote them from default to novice. So a command block interface would be alright too. However, I am running 1.4.6 and need something compatible. Any of you plugin devs or server operators have a plugin suggestion that would help me out here? thanks in advance.

 

For time based ranking check out OnTime

For more detail on setting up rankings see this tutorial

Also, just a suggestion, if you're going to get a time-based rank up plugin I'd suggest getting an AFK (away from keyboard) kick plugin, just my opinion though

Yeah, I have essentials and it will kick AFK players. I have used it before. I use grief prevention, and they get an allowance for claim blocks based on play time. I don't need them claiming up the whole map. anyhoo, thanks for the answers Edge209 i will check them out.

 

OnTime has an AFK config such that it will not credit players for time spent AFK.

 

Ok, so I installed it and configured it. But it won't promote a new player to the next group at the time given. What am I missing?

 

Did you follow the tutorial to make sure the configuration is right?

To get a clue on what may be going wrong, enable the log file via the config.yml, and see what the file OnTimeLog.txt says at the time when you think a promotion should happen. Set the log level to 1. Post a link to your config.yml, rewards.yml, and OnTimeLog.txt here and I can check it out,if you can't figure out what is going wrong.

 

Just use AutoRank, It has always worked for me, AND It is simple and easy to configure.

 

I found the problem...it was in the "what worlds to give rewards" config line. Fixed and works great.

 

OK! If you have problems in the future, the best past to post for help is on the OnTime bukkitdev page, as that is monitored continually.
