CityLanterns

Table of Contents

Description

This plugin let selected redstone lanterns of different groups switch on/off at differeren (ingame) times, e.g. at sunset lanterns of group A will toggle on while lanterns of group B will toggle on at midnight.

Lantern Selection / Tutorial

To modify which lanterns belong to which group, do /citylanternsselect or /citylanternsselect <group> (If you do not specify a group, "main" will be used), a tool will be added to your inventory. Then you can right-click a redstone lantern with that tool to check which group that lantern belongs to, or left-click to add/remove the lantern to/from the group. After one lantern is added to a new group, you can change the settings of that group in the config. Then wait for the night and see them switching on :D

Config

For a default config with key definitions, see here.

@ase34 Well, that's really sad. I wish I could code Java to update the plugin.

Waiting for someone to take over the project, it's simply the best plugin of this type!

For the time being, I am currently unable to provide an update for MC1.8, sorry. However, anyone is free to fork the source code, and potentially taking over the project.

Version 2.1.1 not working on Spigot 1.8. It spams console with errors, like:

Task # for CityLanterns v2.1.1 generated an exception (java weird gibberish)

Even tried compiling the newest in the GitHub, it stopped spitting errors on the console, but it still doesn't work.

An update would be really appreciated.

I uploaded a new version of this plugin, this should be compatible with CB 1.7.9. It should be available soon as it still needs to get approved.

Unfortunately 2.1 Beta (nor any other version) is working on 1.7.9. As soon as one enters /cls it starts to spam the console with this error:

Groups are not saved. The command /citylanterssetting is not being recognized.

Will there be an update available?

@Theitalian828

Could you please describe your problem more precisely? Did you selected the lanterns with the tool? Can you see any errors in the server log? Did it work on version 2.0.3?

Realy nice Plugin. But can you and a function to Set a group of Lamps steady on? I need this for indoor lights.

A reload command is essential.

Your ideas for new commands are really interessting, I'll try to add that.
I'll investigate the bugs with the groups, sorry for the inconvenience
Reloads aren't needed because the plugin self-reloads the config file if it has been changed
Groups can be viewed with /citylanternsgroups

All in all, thx for your comment :D

First of all: thank you for picking up the idea of groups with different settings!

Unfortunately the group-feature does not do the job (yet). Groups are added but the times are ignored. All lanterns turn on and off at the same time. :(

Also a few more commands would be appreciated to make it more customizable from ingame:

cls list - view all available groups
cls groupname night - define the night time for this group
cls groupname day - define the day time for this group
cls groupname thunder true/false - toggle thunder
cls groupname instant - turn on lamps instantly
cls group - make it a toggle to appear/disappear the tool (I have to spam the server with lots of wooden pickaxes otherwise :p )

Maybe you could even add a setting for the tool item id in the config.

Edit: Also a reload command would be great.
