Posted May 3, 2012Hello there,
I have been using this plugin for awhile and it seems to be working great! Thanks!
I know you can make items as rewards but I am wondering if I could just hook the rewards up to a chest somehow so it takes a random item out of the chest and gives it to the lottery winner. Maybe I could set it to take a full stack or a single item and the winner is given that item as a reward.
For example, I get a lot of banned players chests and want to give them away in a lottery. So if I could just do "/lottery [lotteryname] addchest" and then it says "Click a chest to add to the reward pool for this lottery.". Then I click a chest and it gets added to the list of chests to take random items from. If I move the chest or its no longer there or its empty it will remove it from the chest pool for that lottery and use the other ones in the pool.
Does this make sense? Or is it something that is possible to add?

Filed ticket for bug on negative tickets.
[s]Also could you give me advice with my comments below? No need to add my claim permission and non-autoreward feature to your plugin, but if you could help me I'll build my own jar once I know what to cut out.[s] Figured it out!

Lotteries aren't created in game, they are created in the "lotteries.yml".

Posted May 2, 2012Is it possible to add a feature allowing the player who created the lottery to raise money from purchased tickets?
It would be great in order to create some "Lotteryman" job on my server !

Posted Apr 30, 2012You should make it so people can also get a chat message, or there can auto be typed in a command from the console. Also make it like a real lottery, so that, lets say, I am running a lottery with 10.000 tickets, and only 8.000 is bought. Then all 10.000 will be used when getting the winner number. So that it might not be a player that wins, it might even be the lottery maker. Understand?

Posted Apr 30, 2012I also believe a message that a player bought a ticket needs to be broadcast to the server. Otherwise barely anyone enters.

Posted Apr 29, 2012Randude ;) how are you just wondering: is it bad to create more then 1 sign of a lottery? or is that okay?
Second if i place 2 signs, 1 in 1 world and another in 1 another world. Will this cause problems?

Hello,
I was able to add the desired permission node after following tutorials on bukkit, eclipse, and a lot of troubleshooting. 3 hours of work to change 1 line of code :) :)
Perhaps you could tell me how to turn off auto-rewarding an item to a player? I realize online players getting an item reward circumvents the permission node I spent an afternoon implementing, so I'd like to disable it.
Thanks
RB

Posted Apr 18, 2012Could you add a permission node for claiming item prizes? Such as
lottery.claim
We two worlds on our server with separate inventories. The main one has no spawned items, even the "Spawn" was created over 3 weeks with blood, sweat, tears, and beers. I'd like to let people enter from either world into a weekly lotto with an enchanted item as a prize, but to make sure the winners can only claim it in the world where items can appear out of thin air, using a permission node.
Thanks
RB

Posted Apr 18, 2012Great plugin but request, is it possible to create a simple lottery using a command for players so they can earn cash, for eg, to create a lottery u need 5000, then /lottery create Hexlotto 120 20000 1000, it then create a lottery called Hexlotto which last for 2 mins (120 sec) and reward is 20000 and ticket cost 1000, the player who created the lottery takes from him 25000 (20k reward, 5k creation), then 40 players join the lottery, and lottery ended, lottery is closed and the lottery owner won 15000$ from creating lottery, winner of lottery gets 20000, and then lottery is automatically deleted and u need to pay 5000 to create lottery again, and on config, there is support for minimum rewards...
Hope you understanded me,
Thanks

It seems that whenever the server restarts, all Lottery+ signs freeze. It's not a temporary freeze, they stay frozen until they're broken and replaced. Any ideas?

Posted Apr 18, 2012@joannou1 but then people are less likely to enter again with the money they won. It's just luck I guess. Real life lottery isn't rigged ;)
@_Legionarius I might make a pull request on his code to add this feature and change a few messages etc when I have time.

I had someone win the lottery 3 times in a row on $4,000,000 pots that started at 200k.. Max 10 tickets @ 10000
Can you make a system that severely reduces the odds after winning? It really hurts the lottery participants that buy tickets.

An option to announce when tickets are purchased is vital. We used to have it - and without people forget it exists. The reminder message on an interval is a poor substitute imo.

Posted Apr 13, 2012Hey is there a permissions to only buy from a sign. Like make it so they cant use the command and they have to use a sign to get a ticket!
