Awesome, thanks. I missed the ! condition so that will work perfectly.

Though, sadly I cannot use !&residence.create as it turns out to be "!esidence.create" :\

I'll mess with it some to see what I can do.

Firstly, there is no limit to the number of lines anymore

Secondly, use restrictions as found in the advanced guide.

Thirdly, it's better to block a permission, rather than to grant a false one. What if someone started out with false for the node by default? On that note, you can just use the res.create permission as your flag.

1. !&res.create 2. $10000 2. /^perms player setperm <name> res.create true 4. \Thank you! Your new permissions have been set. 5. - 6. -

Try /cmds or /cmdsigns to double check. If it still doesn't work, post your complete startup log.

Is it possible to restrict a player to using a sign only once, so long as they possess a specific node or restrict them from ever using it again?

I'll give you an example of how it's set up.

I have a sign set up to charge players 10,000 coins with $10000, then /perms player setperm <name> res.create true". But don't want them to be able to mistakenly click the sign again to be charged $10000 for nothing to gain

Would I have to use "" with cmds with a HUGE number for a CD, could I set up something like:
(using PermissionsBukkit so it relies on "true" and "false")
/cmds line1 $10000
/cmds line2 /^perms player setperm <name> res.create true
/cmds line3 /^perms player setperm <name> use.homesign false
/cmds line4 &use.homesign

Would that work?
is line4 the limit on the amount of lines you can have? or can I have line5, line6, line7, etc..

Thanks.

Ah, I see. Well I'll see if I can put the functionality back without it glitching up next time I make a release.

I know this is one way to do it, but then i have to have a pressure plate on the block, also not all blocks allow pressure plates on them.

This bug was fixed for Bukkit 1.2.5+ with CommandSigns v1.7.9.

Please update to the latest version.

You can achieve this with a pressure plate, then using redstone to go to a CommandSign. The best option is to place commands on the block underneath and activate it with /cmds redstone.

Can you add an option to make the block activate when walking on? Or within proximity of x and y? Thanks!

Can someone explain why this command isn't working with groupmanager?

/^manuaddp <name> essentials.protect.entitytarget.bypass

(get message can't modify player with same group than you, or higher

or

/#manuaddp <name> essentials.protect.entitytarget.bypass

(get message you are not allowed to use that command) or /*manuaddp <name> essentials.protect.entitytarget.bypass

(get message can't modify player with same group than you, or higher)

but this is working:

/^manuadd <name> player world

CommandSigns update 1.8.3 isn't far from finishing! The bugs about redstone activation and not being able to add lines over 9 are fixed along with many others, just the SSL issues to crack and it'll be released.
