LoreTime
A date plugin for role-playing servers

Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server. These builds have not been approved by the BukkitDev staff. Use them at your own risk.
[ Permissions | Commands | Configuration ]
LoreTime is a date plugin geared towards RP servers. When a player issues the /loretime command, they are given the current in-game date which can be customized to fit the server's theme. Admins can adjust the date in-game as well as save/reload the config. The plugin updates the date at midnight in-game time (18000).
With our standard calendar:

With The Elder Scrolls Calendar:

Note: Days in a month must be divisible by the days in a week, a limitation I hope to remove in the future. For example, in the image above you may notice that the 31st of July of 2011 is actually a Sunday rather than a Tuesday.
FEATURES:
- custom month/day names
- in-game time
- custom formatting
- user specified days in a week/months in a year
- supports permissions
- "calendars" - simply add "[calendar]" without quotes to the first line of a sign then right click the sign to get the date! (temporarily removed)
- multiworld support

will look forward to it ^.^
sadly, as my server is a spoutcraft based one, im still stuck at 1.3.2 until mojang stops their bug fix updates. and the latest version doesn't work with 1.3.2, so im stuck using an old version, but hey will upgrade to the latest once my server does.
keep up the great work

Custom days per month has not been added yet, but it's something that's being planned for the future.
Thanks for your interest, mate!

That's very odd. I replicated it, if you'd like to know. I'll take a deeper look into it when I can.

Hey, sorry for the late response. I don't see anything that might be causing that issue. Let me take a look at the code as soon as I can.

Posted Nov 9, 2012I don't seem to be getting my morning announcements since upgrading to 271. I have it set for 23000 and onNewDay is the only option set to true. I can /loretime for the current time. I only have it enabled for the primary survival world. I turned on debug and just before the annoucement time, I see it calling DateChange Event and referencing my message, but no one is actually seeing it, including me other than in this debug event. It's weird.
You didn't change the way it broadcasts by any chance did you?

I'm not sure why he would be having issues with custom names. It should be fairly straight forward. The only thing I can think of is that he didn't reload the configs.

Posted Oct 10, 2012The admin on my server tried this plugin and couldn't get the custom names for days and months to work. He tried everything it sounds like, and ended up removing it. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks! I'll be putting information about how to configure it and such later.
In the future (think next release), I'm adding the ability to make it run a command once for the entire server or for each individual player. So you can make it rain pigs and give every player a diamond on a holiday.
