Description
What is Lottery+? Lottery+ is a simple and powerful lottery plugin that makes lotteries easy to make and fun to play! Why should you choose my plugin verses others? Other plugins tend to limit you on options and your lotteries, whereas mine possesses limitless options! For instance these lotteries can have extensive options such as Towny support, Item economies, Item rewards, ect... To get started, follow my step-by-step tutorial. Hope you enjoy it!
Supports
Features
- Supports limitless lotteries with dozens options! The world is your oyster!
- You can use '/lottery guic' to open a GUI to make the process easier to create your lotteries
- Supports Vault so you can tap into you server's local economy.
- You can attach a sign to a lottery so your users can use those instead of commands.
- Supports NuVotifier so you can rewards users for voting for your server.
- One of your users helped out with building something? You can rewards them tickets with '/lottery reward'
- One of your winners wasn't online during the drawing? No problem! Lottery+ will simply store their winnings in 'claims.yml' so that when he/she jumps on later they can simply use '/lottery claim'
- Your server not in fluent English? Or maybe you'd like the wording better on one of the messages? No biggie! Lottery+ pulls of it's messages from 'lang.properties'
- Want to do more than just have a pot on your lottery? You can also add all sorts of item rewards and you can even add a 'command reward' that dispatches through the console so that covers a lot of bases.
- Worried about players forgetting about lotteries? No problem. You can set in the config to remind players about them.
- Lottery+ also will check updates from time to time (set in config)
- Server restarting? No worries! Lottery+ will save and load your lotteries
- Fair warning: Lottery+ supports Java 1.8
- Didn't catch the last winner? Be sure to check 'winners.log'

FAQ
How do I start creating lotteries?
You can start creating them by following my thorough step-by-step tutorial. There are also some videos you can watch.
Are lotteries saved after my server reloads or stops?
Yes. Lottery+ is constantly saving it's lotteries to ensure they are up to date.
Do I need to install any plugins for Lottery+?
No, you do not need any plugins. It is recommended that you have Vault if you want to use your server's economy. Lottery+ also supports Towny and Votifier.
Where can I donate?
Right here. All donations are appreciated. ;)
Is there a way to edit the messages?
Yes. If look for a file called 'lang.properties', you can edit the messages in their.
Troubleshooting
Before reporting an error, please consider doing a complete reinstallation. If you have done this, please consider writing a ticket. Be sure to add your config.yml and lotteries.yml when writing your ticket (using pastebin is fine as well). Remember, the more bugs I squash, the better the plugin becomes!
To do list
- Some more types of rewards?
- Have any feature requests? Please don't hesitate to share your ideas!

Lotteries should and always save, you must have not installed it correctly. As far as crashing goes i do not know, as i have never had a case like that srry :/

Posted Mar 27, 2012Is there a way to save active lotteries when doing a lottery reload? We did a reload and the lottery we had running, reset.
When shutting down the server does it save current lotteries and reloads them where they left off when its restarted.
What about if the server crashes will our players be out the money they have invested to the lottery?
Sorry just a few questions I was wondering.
Thanks

idk some of my other users have been having issues with group manager. tbh i don't consider it my issue when something goes wrong with vault-related stuff. my plugin simply just uses it.

Could it be added, the reason I ask is because I have a server shop, all money people spend there is stored in a server account, it would be nice to feed that back into the econ.

Posted Mar 24, 2012I am still having the glitch where players can still force a lottery drawning.
Using craftbukkit verson 2117, groupmanager for permissions, double-checked that permissons were set correctly, and I have permissions: true in the config and using lotteryplus V.0.6.0. Here is the copy of my current config...
What am I doing wrong?

Posted Mar 20, 2012not sure if this is a bug, but when a player is rewarded a ticket the pot increases by the ticket cost. (@least by console command)
Is this supposed to happen? If it is I can work around it. I will just have to set the number of tickets purchasable to 0 and then set the ticket cost to 0. So that the pot doesn't increase per ticket.

Also i should emphasize this in the tutorials, but you can set your "max-tickets" and "max-players" to "-1" and there won't be a limit on the amount of tickets or players their can be ;)

hey thanks for the reply, i told my users and tested it myself and found that /lottery claim does work for the offline players, BUT if a server restart happens before the winnings have been claimed then it just says "there are no lottery claims for PlayerName"
