FrogAnnounce

An auto-messaging/auto-announcement/announcer/thing system for your minecraft server.

Bukkit version doesn't matter for this plugin. Please don't ask me to update it for that reason.

Description

Okay, so here's my first plugin which I've actually released that isn't amazingly small-scale. It's a fairly simple plugin which relays messages, at the rate in minutes, set in the configuration. It allows for colours, multi-line messages, message cycling, and message shuffling. I made this because I've seen a few plugins like this, but they're either out-of-date and don't work, or they just don't work, period. From thereabouts comes this plugin, FrogAnnounce. I know the name is lame; I'm not creative with names, sorry.

Please post the stacktrace you get in the console when you get such errors. A stacktrace looks somewhat like this:

Unhandled exception: java.lang.NullPointerException at me.thelunarfrog.some.package.someClass (someClass.java:453) at org.bukkit.Bukkit (Bukkit.java:222) at java.lang.Integer (Unknown Source)

Hello !

I have just downloaded your Beta build, and I am getting severe errors in my console, and internal errors in-game. Hope it's fixed soon! We really love this plugin :)

Hello, I'm getting an error in-game and in the console whenever I try to type in a command, it says:

"An internal error occurred when attempting to use this command".

What do I do to fix it?

Per request, this feature has been added.

To use: If the command you want to use is, say, /give TheLunarFrog 276 1

Then make an announcement with the text... &USE-CMD;give TheLunarFrog 276 1

This feature is only available with the latest build on my Jenkins, however. If the newest one doesn't list this change, then wait up to 15 minutes and it'll build.

Hmm.. I can't reproduce that error. Can you provide any more information, such as what sub-command was used to produce it?

Now that my new computer is built and working properly, I've got to set up my workspace and everything. Once I'm done, this will be fixed ASAP. Sorry for the long delay, I was never notified that comment was posted via e-mail.

@diannetea

No. I can, however, implement that soon!

I'm seeing a bug when using /fa in game:

Seems fine to use in the console though.

It works fine with 1.4.6. This won't break unless they remove bukkit methods, which they rarely do.

You requested it, you got it. There's a "small" update (2.1.0) pending approval.

You can view the changelog here: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/frogannounce/pages/change-log/

The only update I'm currently working on is adding/removing announcements from in-game.

I am, however, still looking for suggestions.
