AntiShare
AntiShare
DISCONTINUED
This plugin is no longer maintained. Support is no longer provided and updates will not be issued. If you would like to take over the project, please contact me.
Thanks to Team Haven (HAVENmc.com) for the logo!
What it does
The original idea came from here from the server legendaryisland.com. It blocks certain actions if a player (by default) is in creative mode. AntiShare also supports many other features like regions, inventory switching, and more.
Features Supported
- Multiple World Support - A configuration for each world
- GameMode Regions - Want your PvP arena to be survival? Use GameMode Regions!
- GameMode Inventories - An inventory for creative, one for survival, and even one for adventure
- GameMode Blocks - Don't let survival players break blocks placed by creative players!
- And much, much more - Take a look at the configuration! There are options for nearly every creative restriction option (including changing player levels and economy balances on Game Mode change)
For advanced help, please see this page.

Information regarding the next update
The next update of AntiShare will be a major change. Changes currently include the following. Check back often as this list will be adjusted:
- Complete reworking of inner functionality. This will help with the insane amount of resources AntiShare uses
- New permissions and commands.
- New configuration (with auto-convert)
- Smaller footprint on the hard drive (with auto-convert)
- More compatibility with other plugins
- Removal of fully integrated survival support. This means that although supported by the plugin, it is strongly recommended to use an alternate plugin to deal with protecting your servers from survival mode players. AntiShare is going to be designed with creative players being the bad guys and only prevent survival players from using creative stuff.
- Removal of fully independent regions. As this can be done with WorldGuard, AntiShare will no longer support it
- Continued limited support of World Splits
- Addition of a grouping system to assist with servers that may have donor ranks
- Modified support of inventories. This has yet to be fully designed, but the inventory system within AntiShare is going to be adjusted to permit more configuration as well as compatibility.
- Added support for potential future platforms. (note: this description is about to get nerdy) AntiShare is going to be following a common API abstraction to allow for more platforms to be supported by the same file. Although there are no active plans to support anything more than Bukkit, the potential for more platforms is being considered while rewriting the plugin. Although this system will increase the file size of the plugin, I do not foresee it affecting performance in a negative way.
- Complete rewrite of AntiShare. Yup, that's right. I'm going to be re-writing the plugin from scratch to clean up the code and give me more control over it. It's been quite a while since I've last updated the code, and it's becoming hard to fix issues with, both are sure signs that a rewrite is needed.
I would like to thank the current, and future, users of AntiShare - I hope it is serving you well. I hope you all understand the need for the rewrite and will continue to use AntiShare on your server(s).
If you have suggestions, comments, or questions, please contact me through any of the various way presented.

Posted Oct 21, 2012Hey,
like this plugin but i want to report a little bug. If you are using a claiming plugin (in my case griefprevention). And you are building something in creative mode... Then people in survival mode can destroy those blocks if you disable the anti creative block break from survival mode even though there is an administrator claim. Is there any way to fix this?

If you're on SQL, then your SQL server is not fast enough.
AntiShare is not designed for SQL, it's designed for flat-file. Just as a note.

I don't know what the problem is, I think its on our end. We recently updated mysql and something broke maybe, I'll take a closer look at it tomorrow. Thanks for the help though. Edit: Hey why am I getting this error in logs: 6:19:19 PM CONSOLE:[SEVERE] [AntiShare] Move block took longer than 1000 milliseconds.

That's it. AntiShare handles the rest.

I'm using the default database name, SQL is enabled, password and username are correct, they have to be...other plugins are using the same lol. I think its hostname, I'm using this format: "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/example" with example being different obviously. Is this the wrong format?

There are 5 things you need to fill out for SQL:
Hostname, username, password, database, and under 'enabled-features' the SQL flag.

Yes I see that ability now, I was looking at a config for a different plugin and was really confused. It's late and I should go to sleep lol. I'm trying to set up sql but its not taking the information, and its the same as other plugins...I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I just get: 2012-10-17 00:45:43 [WARNING] [AntiShare] Cannot connect to SQL! Check your settings. AntiShare will use Flat-File for now I'm staring at the settings and they are the same as other sql plugins I use, mcmmo/wg/essentials...
I just put this plugin on about half an hour ago

Posted Oct 16, 2012A creative player can place a brewing stand and put ghast tears or potions in there, and a survival player can then take them

AntiShare is not faster or more stable on SQL anyways.
Consider the missing option for a port to be a deterrent.
SQL is less stable within AntiShare, as well it's no faster or slower than flat file, and it provides no real use-case to be there in the first place.
The support for SQL is only there for the people who think they need it, when in reality the flat-file system is much more reliable.

Posted Oct 12, 2012Looks like you guys are just missing the option to point the MySQL service to a different port other than 3306. Sorta disappointing since most plugins out there come with that option. Oh well. No MySQL for me I guess

Done. :)

Posted Oct 11, 2012@turt2live After testing for a few minutes, I thought of something... perhaps I can stock up on potions, use a ton, then port out and i'll still have that 8 minutes of resistances and speed! Well sure enough, I did! Not sure how you can fix that.. but figured I'd mention it!

I use the Multi-Inv plugin to handle inventories - could that add the problem?
(edit - just see Multi inv has a new 132 update - will test with that tonight)

Posted Oct 9, 2012make a "force survival region"
1 - stay out of that region - go into creative - fill up bar with diamond blocks.
2 - go into that region - survival + new inventory now forced
3 - Get killed in the region (pvp tested)
Respawn - Now in survival with all the creative mode diamond blocks.
<3 AS! as you know ! - If you get a chance, take a look though.. Dupers dream..
