I'm glad you got it, and didn't give up! :)

Um, ok then.

Literally just copy and paste what I gave you. Here's a formatted version to make it easier.

How are you disabling them? It really sounds like you are editing the default files, which you should not be doing.

Yes, there are tons of them in the default configs :)

https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/blob/master/src/main/resources/defaults/wands.defaults.yml

You are meant to look at all of the examples I provide, and the instructions, and hopefully figure it out.

Try something simple first. Put the following in plugins/Magic/wands.yml:

unknown:
 name: The Unknown Wand
 description: My Super Awesome Wand
 icon: gold_hoe
 cost_reduction: 2
 cooldown_reduction: 2
 fill: true
 organize: true
 mode: inventory

Hopefully you can make out the spacing there, I don't know why I can't get the formatting right here. "unknown" is not indented, the rest of it is.

If you put that in wands.yml, then do "/magic load" then "/wand unknown" you should get your custom wand. It will be cost-free and cooldown-free, and ome preloaded with every spell.

Thank you so much for the PR! If I can work something out with Towny's lack of Maven repo, I will definitely be merging that in.

In the meantime, you were right, so thanks again! Not sure how my CI server didn't catch it, but there were errors in the project.

They should all be fixed now if you update!

Note that with 4.0 I'm trying to change things quite a bit, so the build may be broken more often than usual- I try not to, of course.

Selling wands is kind of in limbo. I'm working hard to get custom item data serialization working in Spigot, which would make Shopkeepers work again.

dtlTraders should still work, though I've had reports that it doesn't and I need to test it again myself.

And enchanting is also broken, mostly. Can you tell a lot of stuff broke in 1.8?

Enchanting would be the normal way players upgrade their spells.

Essentials shop signs do work, though- not the most elegant thing, I know. You can sell wands and spells via Essentials signs.

Another option is to set up an "upgrade area"- this is what we've done on Potterworld. Using a command block with the command "/wandp @p enchant xp" you can emulate the pre-1.8 enchanting behavior, where they spend XP to gain spells.

@LordBoos

Ummmm- I can haz dos patches?? :D

Seriously, I'd love to integrate those into the main code if you'd share.

Otherwise- I think everything should be all committed, the CI builds are working. Make sure you've got MagicLib and MagicAPI updated.. though that should be automagic since they're in SNAPSHOT state.

Make sure you're not editing the defaults. There are big warnings in the default files about this.

To change things, you either add to the override files, or you turn off loading the defaults completely (in config.yml) and write your own configs from scratch.

To rename the (in-game name of) the Wolf wand, you would add the following to messages.yml:

wands:
    wolf:
        name: Unknownannon
        description: My super awesome amazing wand!!1!!one

EDIT: Formatting fail there, not sure why. I hope you can visualize the tabs. :P

The "wolf" part is the key, and you can't change that. You can just copy the whole config from the defaults under a new key if you want, though.

Wand configuration instructions:

https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/blob/master/WANDS.md

My suggestion for what it sounds like you are trying to do, copy all the yml files in here:

https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/tree/master/src/main/resources/examples/potter

Or at least wands, spells and messages. These go in plugins/Magic, and will overwrite the empty ones that are in there.

Then edit them how you want. These are Harry Potter themed, but you can change that- the configs have a great balance for dueling.

Alternately, just pick and choose what you want from the examples and defaults. Whatever you put in the YML files in plugins/Magic is what you'll get.

One thing with this plugin you have to get your head around from the start- it is about the items, not the players.

If you want player classes, try Heroes :)

You can do something similar with the wands if you can enforce "one wand per player" (we do this on PotterWorld) and have a variety of wands, and make them bound so players can't trade or steal wands, etc. 

But it's a lot of hassle :D

Generally in Magic, as in vanilla MC, the player doesn't matter. The item improves, the player doesn't. You lose your wand, you lose your magic, etc. That's just how i've chosen to do things here, and it's not for everyone!
