With latest build, signs can be used if you don't left space between you and the sign. However, the block is placed behind you, and is still not working if you are holding a torch.

Yup, PluginMetrics has always been disabled for months now. Still haven't given the final v1.8 a try yet, but I'll do so when I get the chance.

Thank you. I've been wondering what caused this for some time, and this fix should probably work. I'll try to get this fixed tonight. It may be a few days before we have a release with it, but you can always get the latest code on the jenkins.

EDIT: I just fixed it. (I think) I can't test it right now, but feel free to download the dev build and try it out:

It happens Both in survival and creative. Right-click with a block in hand works only if you left space between you and the sign for the block to stand, so if you are too close to the sign it does nothing; it also does nothing if you right click with a non-placeable block such as torches or pressure plates but with the essentials signs such as [Mail] it doesn't happen either of the two problems. :S

So i'm hoping you need a change like this in the code: https://github.com/essentials/Essentials/commit/ee072e844b066da7a06498b9d9ea9c8cc4977333

Did it happen approximately every 10 minutes? If so, disable plugin metrics. The config file is in the plugins folder under pluginmetrics if I recall correctly.

I was using build 12 on your Dev Build page, which I'm guessing was close to the final version of v1.8, but I'm willing to try again once more with the final version once it gets approval. I'll be back and let you know.

Just saying though that the server suffered from lag spikes every few minutes with this plugin loaded and they disappeared when it was unloaded, and I'm 99.9% sure it's attributed to CS v1.8 and/or Bukkit builds on 1.3.1 as it never used to do this on 1.2.5.

1.8.0 release is in the approval queue. For all beta users, you can update with '/cmds update force'. Enjoy!

Protip: If you don't paste your full error I can't and won't help help you.

@Swords761

Are you using the 1.8.0 beta build? It contains some major changes to the way we execute signs, which probably increase performance significantly. It'll be in release soon if you want to wait.

Great plugin guys!
One comment though: whenever I try using your latest build on 1.3.1 R2, it's been giving me a hard time in terms of performance issues. It causes lag spikes as well as eating up all my memory (java runs out of memory). I know it's this plugin too because I've had it on for a few days, experienced this, then turned it off for a few days and performance was much better, and now today when I re-added it the lag came right back.
Is there anything you can do on your side, or settings on mine, to increase performance? It'd be much appreciated!

Make sure your users have commandsigns.use.* in their permission nodes. See here for a full list: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/command-signs/pages/reference-guide/permissions/

Ooh, I just go through all of the accepted tickets! I vote that we release a beta file! I'll upload it now, but not have people update automagically. You'll have to go to the files page to get it, as it's beta.
