Bukkit

Have you wanted your users to easily find people who live near eachother? Maybe for users to easily tell if their friend is really their friend without compromising player's IP addresses? Then this is for you!

This plugin will broadcast some basic data about a player's location (you can configure in the config), which all players can see when a player logs in, 20-30 seconds after it says they join the game. The default config value is "&6{name} comes from {city}, {country}". This could broadcast: "Plo457 comes from SomewhereOn,Earth".

message.TEXT_OF_MESSAGE:

The text content of the message. Default value is &6{name} comes from {city}, {country}.
