- Respects animal protection plugins such as GriefPrevention
- Compatible with all trading plugins.
- Very simple, throw an egg at a mob and it will be turned into a spawn egg.
- Permissions support.
- Configurable catch chance.
- Configurable cost (vault support, or items).
- Explosion effects.
Installation and requirements
Vault is not required unless you intend to use it

Posted Jun 19, 2013Hi, I caught a pig today with a saddle on and ended up losing my saddle. Could you make animals with saddles drop the saddle after being caught? Thank you.

I have not deleted your ticket (I don't even think it's possible). I replied to it a long time ago. http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-mods/eggcatcher/tickets/?status=+

Posted Jun 3, 2013Would be nice if my ticket didn't just get silently deleted... Can you add support for more protection APIs though? I get a lot of confused players who try to use eggs in their own claim. (Griefprevention) I'll be satisfed with a reason as to why you won't instead of just deleting it.

It doesn't. Mostly because I've found it to be incompatible with many trading plugins. Also it would prevent the eggs from being stacked. Lastly it would change the expected behaviour of the eggs. Most people I've been in contact with uses this plugin because it's stable, simple and compatible. I fear that saving the mob data would change this.

WorldGuard is an area protection plugin, it doesn't protect animals. So I'm not sure what you mean when you say that EggCatcher doesn't respect WorldGuard.

Well I just don't have much time to spent on helping people configuring various permission plugins. You can get plenty of support for this elsewhere.
Bugs and critical problems directly related to EggCatcher gets solved very quickly.
It's hard to see your configuration file since you only pasted in the EggCatcher part, but according to the documentation for GroupManager (http://wiki.ess3.net/wiki/Group_Manager#Permissions_nodes and here https://github.com/essentials/Essentials/blob/release/EssentialsGroupManager/src/groups.yml) it's not properly formatted. I suggest starting over with the permissions file if you still can't get it to work.

There are no typos. I also removed this plugin. The last of support is not a good thing.

You need to check your permissions configuration for typos.

What do you mean by regions? EggCatcher respects all protection plugins that I know of.

Posted Apr 27, 2013You really need to add support for regions. Anyone can use this plugin to bypass any type of protection plugin on servers.
