Grappling Hook
Finally! A Standalone Grappling Hook For Bukkit!
Compatible with Minecraft 1.8!
ATTENTION!
This project is now being updated and maintained on Spigot.
Features:
- No commands necessary.
- Pull yourself to locations.
- Pull entities to you.
- Pull items on the ground to you.
- Configurable durability on grappling hooks.
- No permissions required. (But are supported)
- No configuration required. (But is optional)
- Plug and Play.


How To Use:
Just throw the hook out onto a solid block, and when pulling it back in, you will be pulled to its location.
If the hook sticks into a mob or player, they will be pulled to you.
If the hook sticks into an item on the ground, the item will be pulled to you.
If the you reel in the hook when it is in water or still in the air, it will behave as a normal fishing rod.

See the full api on Github here.
To add a grappling hook to a player do this:
ItemStack hook = GrapplingHook.createGrapplingHook(int uses); player.getInventory().add(hook);

Posted Oct 22, 2013Hey Snow, relatively new to Bukkit Plugins but I just added this to our server and the item itself seems to work nicely. However the recipe doesn't show up when I actually go to craft it, I have to just click the empty 'product' box and the grappling hook will then appear on my cursor. Is that normal or did I miss something? I'm running the TekkitMain mod pack with MCPC+ if that helps any.

Its literally been 4 days since I last responded to you saying I would fix a bug. Why would you even ask if its becoming inactive? Not to sound rude but I have lots of other things to do in my life especially now that I am in college. But thanks for reporting the creation bug. I will fix that in the next update when I have time.

Posted Oct 20, 2013Any progress?
Also the permission nodes to create the grappling hooks do not work. Only OPs can create the hooks but the permissions to use the hooks do work i believe.
Are you going to work on this plugin? or is it becoming inactive?

I will look into it. It may be a problem with mcmmo not checking if the event is cancelled but I will see what I can do.

Posted Oct 13, 2013plugin conflicts with mcmmo. If you have fall damage off in the config, you will still level acrobatics on mcmmo.
Will you be able to fix this?

Posted Oct 7, 2013One thing that you should add should be a grappling hook with emeralds. That would be nice. I have a villager farm and have many emeralds, and just think that would be really cool. Other than that nice plugin and continue to work on it!

Posted Oct 2, 2013Hey, nice plugin, love it :) Though could you please add an option to allow normal fishing rods to be used as grappling hooks? And the durability decreases as it's being used (configurable too, maybe?)
