My Plugin

A specialized plugin developed for canyon — a craftbukkit fork designed for minecraft beta 1.7.3, which extends server functionality with various useful tools.

Main Features

The plugin offers several important functions for improving server management:

• Commands /players and /list available to all players, not just operators
• Block action tracking system! (including stealing items from chests) — operators can check history through the /blocklog command <- INCOMPLETE! Some block-altering actions (such as piston operation or explosions) are not yet handled!
• Customizable /info and /rules commands
• Ability to configure welcome messages and "by the way" messages
• Command /myplugin-reload for reloading configuration without stopping the server

IMPORTANT WARNING: Never use the /reload command with this plugin, as this can lead to serious problems.

Documentation

Configuration File

The configuration file is located at plugins/my-plugin/config.yml.

Block Tracking System

The system records all block actions: their placement, destruction, as well as removal or addition of items to containers.

The main command is blocklog, with aliases also available: blocklogger and inspect.

When used without arguments, the command toggles the inspection status for the player who executed it. If at least one argument is specified, the inspection status is toggled for the specified player.

When inspection mode is active, you can:

• Left-click on a block — view its history
• Right-click — view the history of the adjacent block (on the side you clicked)

In this mode, you will not be able to destroy or place blocks, nor interact with doors, hatches, and other objects.

When checking double chests, be sure to check both blocks, as the plugin saves interactions for only one of them.

Block action history is saved in the file plugins/my-plugin/block-log-book.txt.

Also pay attention to the storeInMemory option in the configuration.

Player List Command

All players can use the /players or /list commands to view the number of online players and their nicknames.

Reloading

To safely reload the configuration file while the server is running, use the /myplugin-reload or /reload-myplugin commands.

Information Commands and Messages

These functions are intuitive and well-documented in the configuration file itself.
