DeathTpPlus
DeathTpPlus
DeathTpPlus announces a death with a random message based on the death cause and allows you to teleport to the point of death It can also create a TombStone at the place you died to let you save your inventory (aka DeadMansChest).You can also create a tomb sign which can be used as respawn point and as a place of information of how often you died and what your last death cause was.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to some issues with yaml you can get the following error: unacceptable character '?' " in the log, The fix is to remove the รค atm from the default messages and if you have custom messages to remove any of them using special characters. Sorry about that!
How does it work?
Take a look at how it works.. Videos
Also take a look at this picture to know what I'm talking about in the config file and on these pages 
Based on the original plugin from lonelydime. Integrates a fork of furt from cenotaph and tomb from dark_balor.
PLEASE NOTE: Mung3r is taken over from here, he did already help me a lot and is willing to keep this plugin updated. THANKS a lot

Don't want one of the features? No worries! Just disable it in the config file and it'll be like that feature isn't in the plugin at all! The file IOs aren't called and neither are the methods used for those features. Worried about performance? Don't be!

FAQ
- Q: Colors are not working correctly in messages, what is wrong?
A: If you are using Essentials Chat turn that off, otherwise you need to live with it or ask Essentials Teams why that happens. - Q: What does "expected <block end>, but found Scalar" in my log messages mean?
A: Probably you forgot to use \" or ' to get a " - Q: I see a killed by X message but I did use /suicide from essentials or similar.
A: This is a bug of the other plugin not setting the death cause correctly. Nothing I can do. Sorry. - Q: If I die in a cave or in nether and use /deathtp I will teleport back to the place I died but on top of the world
A: Change teleportToHighestBlock: true to false but read the comments first in the config. - Q: Could you support RegionPlugin XYZ?
A: Not until a general API similar to Vault for economics comes out. I will support region plugins I use myself. - Q: Can I help you?

@MrZyros
you need permissions... and probably a permission manager plugin... PEX or bPermissions are quite easy... the permissions you need are in the ticket on top.

Posted Feb 1, 2012How do I set up the perms to give free chests for users? My permissions.yml is completely blank. Tried googling how to set up permissions, but I just can't seem to find a useful guide right now - sorry in advance for being a complete admin noob ><

I don't see why you would need the config, permissions, etc.
It was working before (however it was screwed up and didn't listen to the config or permissions AT ALL) Now it isn't after I updated it.

Posted Jan 31, 2012For some reason, it won't work at all for me. I know I have everything configured right, and I gave users permissions. Help? I am using Essentials GroupManager, should I have the :true thing at the end of the permissions still?

Posted Jan 31, 2012@goodBEan
well there is a workaround for that... farther down the comments...
honestly the region stuff is annoying like hell.. the newest dev-build has the worldguard protection support in 3.8.3.1818
concerning the warzones... is the warzones plugin updated to the new event system? if not that could be the reason why it changed.
otherwise you could remove the right to use deathtp etc from the user in the world..
and concerning more region support .... nope... not atm...
@Ar7ific1al
do you use any chat plugin? could you open a ticket and post via pastie.org your config?

Posted Jan 31, 2012I got a bit of a problem on the server where I manage plugins... I installed DeathTpPlus and it works fine, but there one function which doesn't seem to be working. Death messages only show up in the console, not in the in-game chat. I've double, triple, even quadruple checked the config file, and all the right functions are enabled. Using the most recent release (3.8.0.1818) with CB RB 1.1-R1, with PermissionsEx.

Posted Jan 29, 2012I ran into a few issues with the new version of deathtp and other plugins
with deathtpplus, lwc, and world guard. Simply put if somebody dies in a region that they do not own or a member of, they can't open their chests. its locked from both the region owner and the person who died.
also the deathtpplus causes problems with the war plugin typically. if you get killed in a warzone you shouldn't really die but get teleported and healed. with the new update you die and a chest is left behind with a sign. An easy fix for me is to be able to disable deathtp on my creative world (where my warzones are at).

yeah atm it is only HALF of that... IIRC it will still replace Lava, Water, Gravel(?) because otherwise it get's very hard to place the stuff, also I will only look around 1 block offset.
Is this really a problem?

@LEGIONN4IRE
well, whatever he needs he can get... there are some limits though :-) if he needs help with the code tell him to contact me.
@Jessicadawn
just creat a ticket for it, post your permissions and config via pastie.org and I will take a look.
@CoolOppo
hmm I think you mean the tomb, tombstones are unlimted atm IIRC... sigh I need to look into the code again more... so much todo

I need to rewrite quite a lot of code for that though I think... I need to cleanup the code first..

Posted Jan 28, 2012Nice plugin! The death chest and /death tp work like a charm. I'm using PEX and for some reason the streak messages do not show, any ideas? I'm also running the Ecocreature plugin. It has a feature that gives player's bonus rewards for killstreaks. Problem is... he says Ecocreature only works for the original Deathtpplus, but I couldn't get it to work. Anyway, you might collaborate with him to get full functionality out of both plugins?

Posted Jan 27, 2012I have, shouldOnlyUseAirToCreate: true
but when someone dies in lava, the sign replaces the lava, same when gravels/sand suffocates them.
