This thread is for the discussion of Survivals plugins so any you would like to see either added or removed. For any suggestions please include why you believe it should be added/removed. (Staff feel free to edit this post as you see fit!) Lottery: A simple plugin that people seem to like is a lottery plugin I know there are a bunch but I think we should look into a few and maybe add one to our server. Here is one I found just by searching lottery Link: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/lotteryplugin/ Casino: Another fun plugin is a casino plugin I came across a very cool one well looking around. This plugin allows us to create our regular slots (and blackjack ) then on top of that it gives players the option to make there own casino's and the money used in these casino's must be supplied by the player (Cool thing for players to add to there shops could also be VIP only) Link: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/sign-casino/ Mcmmo: We all know what this one is so there is no need to explain but I really think we should bring this plugin back if we disable pvp effects (Keep the levels just not the effects so players can have bragging rights or something), blast mining, and increase the exp needed to level a little bit I dont see any issues with it. Link: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/mcmmo/ Player Heads: Everything about this amazing plugin can be found here. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/player-heads/ Added Plugins: Lottery Player Heads Mcmmo (This will be updated to the new version soon as well as a few things re-added that are currently disabled.)
its not going to help the server be anymore fun but i think the plugin is called magnet? idk it makes items on the ground stick together to cut down lag so like if you harvest your farm you don't have 128 entities bobbing and spinning you would only have 2 entities consisting of 64 items each. also if someones mining or digging quickly. just a thought its probably already been looked at though lol
We had this with no lag a while ago and I would really like to see it come back myself. Do you think you could find a link?
The sever should already be doing this. Is it not? Also, mcmmo has not been updated since August of last year, so it doesn't work. Yay! Sent from Galaxy Note II using Tapatalk
no max magnet or whatever similar plug in the server has isn't working i just harvested carrots and they were all single entities. lol lots of carrots laggg idk what plug in you used to do this but magnet i think its called seems to be popular with other servers so it must be good? idk lol i dont do plug ins EDIT: maybe its not called magnet i just tried to google it and came up with nothing
just tested the magnet thing sorry it is working but the items have to be really close together for it to work when you harvest crops or mine and stuff they don't land that close together so its really not serving its purpose =/ the only thing its preventing really is some mo-mo spamming his Q button.
Quote from the mcMMO team: UPDATED TO 1.4.6? We plan to release an official version very soon, but in the mean time, in order to remove the errors that you are seeing, please update to the latest developer build!

I have found 3 plugins that I belive you might like. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/avo-guilds/ This is an alternate vertion of towny, allowing added bonuses to be given to each guild by admins. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/fear-darkness/ This plugin is a bit like slender man, if you stay down in the dark too long you will find that 10 zombies have spawned on top of you. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/gods/ The best in my opinion, this plugin would be an alternative to towny, giving players bonuses when active and giving them quests to complete. This can be used for missions of raiding and promotes warfare.
Being an atheist, a plugin called "Gods" sounds less appealing to me, but I really like the idea of having some kinds of quests in the game! Having quests that require you to collect valuables, could help the economy, because they are taken out of the market. Example: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/qquests/
So your own personal beliefs in the outside world translate to ingame? and vice versa? Right clicking on a stone block ingame is not showing belief to a deity in real life you know.
I just want to remind people we are trying to attract new players to the server, not entertain the existing players. I feel things like the marriage pluggin and the RPG style of pluggins will not appeal to new players. Honestly they do sound fun, but about as fun as extra hard mode. The RPG stuff especially won't get new players as it adds entirely new mechanics to the game that people would be required to learn before being able to play properly. The lottery, casino, mcmmo, and strange weapons all sound great to me. The lottery and casino are very straight forward, easy to use, and a lot of fun. Mcmmo does have the draw back of making things a bit easier to get, but who cares? I think the little EHM experiment showed us that making the game harder doesn't always make the game more fun, especially for new players. It was a great feeling to get that first piece of glowstone dust from dirt. Also I think the strange weapons mod could add a really cool aspect to pvp with legendary weapons, assuming it doesn't make weapons overpowered (I didn't read all the details). The weapon stat stuff sounds really cool. Lastly, we should really make an effort to get some type of party chat back on the server. I'm not sure what happened to towny chat, but towns absolutely need their own private chat to create a sense of community. It would also be great to have something like mcmmo chat again as it's always nice to have a private chat with friends even if your not part of the same town. Getting private chats for towns again is more crucial as again, it is more relevant to new players and making them part of a community. Not sure if I will actually look for pluggins on my own, but I strongly suggest to anyone that is proposing ideas to please think about what will attract new players. I said almost this exact line in the thread about EHM and it fell on deaf ears. I'd hate to see the same mistake made twice.
Someone should open a poll for different plugins, see which ones are most popular among shadecrestians. I would do it myself, but I'd rather an admin be in charge of this stuff.
I completely agree Z_ I said something similar in the thread discussing the removal of extra hard mode we need plugins that enhance the survival experience not change it. For the Marriage plus it was just something random I thought would be funny to post more of an example if anything (I did not think people would actually like it lol) if we were by some chance going to use it I wanted everything but extra exp from mobs, food sharing, and the heart animations disabled so it would be more of a silly side thing people could do. For the Strange Weapons I still need to read over it myself because it has other features besides the sword but the sword itself is just stats I believe. :3
I actually must say that the way mcmmo works, each level increases the amount of gain is quite unfair. New people, no matter what they do, will be getting less resources out of ores they find, less wood out of trees they chop and etc. It might not directly effect the way they feel about the game, but in the long run if they want to make a town, make a shop or something like that; They can't sell their items for as cheap as the guys with high mcmmo can. So for me it seems that having mcmmo just to show off levels is fine, as it is always nice to compete with levels and see the increase in skills on the chat window, but having all the gathering buffs etc. makes it boring. A major reduce in the gathering bufs might work as well, as being 10% faster at something at max rather than 100% would be more realistic. Just for competing on ranks we could of course just get a top list for "gathered vanilla experience" for each month, all time, etc.
