EpicZones
EpicZones
Epicly fast and efficient polygon based area protection for your server.
This project is no longer being supported by jblaske, but I (courtartanis) will be resuming support for the plugin.
Please join me in wishing him the very best in health and happiness with all his future endeavors, new prospects and be glad to know that he and i will remain in contact and good friends.
Current Version: v0.37 (1.3.1-R2.0)
EpicZones was created to bridge the gap between existing are protection plugins and the needs of server administrators to not be restricted to cuboids or chunks. EpicZones provides server managers with the kind of area protection they most desire! Polygons and Circles! Easy to set up, easy to configure and super lightweight on your server's resources.
The EpicZones team aims to make EpicZones a must-have for any server administrator who wants full control over their server; protecting themselves, their servers, their players and most importantly of all - the work and dedication that their players put into a minecraft world.
Not only does it work for protection, it works with slight RPG aspects in terms of giving users or zone owners a sense of pride when they enter their own zones, knowing it is theirs and giving them enthusiasm to make it the best it can be; whilst knowing it can potentially be fully protected!
....not ONLY THAT.....but, due to Polygonal zones - your players don't have to build uniformed square buildings to comply with zoning regulations, how about a weird alien shape with a million sides? It'll take you a while to draw...but it's theoretically possible!
Features
- Polygonal and Circular area creation. (Not just cuboids!)
- In-game zone creation.
- Provide a Circular border to your map.
- Hierarchical Permissions with Child and Parent Zones. Eg. Build, Destroy or Entry control on a per zone/per group basis.
- Display Entering and Exiting messages in chat.
- Enhanced /who
- Advanced control of zone based regeneration
- Many zone specific controls for things like Fire, Explosions and Mob spawning control
- Zone specific command control to disallow the use of certain in-game chat commands whilst in a specific zone.
Plugin recommendations
- HeroChat
- Most perms plugins. PermissionsEX or bPerms are highly recommended.
Beta
If you are interested in participating in the beta versions of EpicZones to see and help shape the upcoming features, please send a PM to jblaske with information regarding your server (how many players, how many concurrent active players, server ip address).
Support
For any issues, please document them and create an EpicZones ticket. This will help ensure EpicZones gets restored to full working order as soon as possible.

Caps won't get your requests prioritised....in fact - It's more likely to get you put to the bottom of the list.
We're doing everything we can, but since Mojang can't seem to make their minds up with updates it's taking a little longer than it's meant to.
Please note what jblaske said.
We ONLY officially support recommended bukkit builds. Anything other than that has no milestone and no timeframe.

I will have a working version for 1.2 I just haven't had time to finalize the version yet, on top of the fact that i only release against Reccomended Builds.

Posted Mar 4, 2012I understand there are big changes that need to be made moving into 1.2.3 now, but I do hope this plugin is still actively being worked on... There's really no other mod that has all of this plugin's capabilities... Tried looking into WorldGuard, Towny, and some other zone one I forgot, but this has exactly what I need. :)

Posted Mar 3, 2012PLEASE UPDATE ASAP!
I have a fairly large server (average of 15 at any given time) and we rely heavily on this plugin. After updating bukkit to 1.2.3 the entire server was griefed and we were forced to go to a temp map. It's terrible, PLEASE DO everything you can to update the plugin!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU in advance.

Posted Mar 1, 2012There seems to be an issue with mobs spawning. If I set mob spawning to none in both the world and children, skeletons and pigs still spawn, although the skeletons don't seem to do anything.

Posted Feb 28, 2012I started using this plugin as a PvP zone plugin and it works fantastically! I added a suggestion in the tickets to make it even better, though. Keep up the great work!

I struggled with this at first too. Its NOT addchildren it's child add Edit the parent zone then /zone child add child_zone_name then /zone save to save the parent zone. then /zone edit child_zone_name - this puts you in drawing mode for the child zone draw the child zone then /zone save - complets drawing phase then /zone ..... do all settings like perm and flags then /zone save to save the child zone
Hope this helps

Posted Feb 24, 2012I am a novice at this, but I use EpicZones for my server (my kids and their friends use it) to protect them from griefing/destroying their work and to make areas for different types of play. Some of the kids like to play survival and some like to play creative. Does it make sense to have a feature that would restrict play in a certain zone to survival mode or creative mode? If this already exists, sorry, but if so can someone let me know how to do it :)

Posted Feb 13, 2012I am trying to add a smaller zone to be a child of another larger zone that it is inside, but i can't seem to get the command right. Everything i read tells me its /zone addchildren (zone name). I am doing this while editing the larger zone... and the whole addchildren thing isn't picking anything up.. any help on this?

See if is that the cause of your problem.

Same here. (RE: disallowedcommands) I really want to know how to disable commands like /home or /sethome inside zone and child zone.

Posted Feb 10, 2012Before I ask, know that I don't know a thing about IRC.. can't ask there, and I don't do twitter. That said, all I have to say is...ummm.. what does this following error mean? I used the "/zone list" command.

My server is tekkit, so it is 1.0.1, I am using the EZ for 1.0.0. No, I cannot upgrade, Tekkit is the core of the server and loosing those blocks and items would make many angry -_-. With that said, any ideas?

Posted Feb 10, 2012Sorry, I just noticed something else in the main config file. By default, it sets enableSpout: true. I don't have spout installed though. Could this cause any problems?
Thanks, Jason
