Use /mgive <spellname>

That *should* be able to be put in a Trader, though I don't use that plugin anymore so I honestly can't say for sure. Please let me know either way if it works?

Wands and the spells on them level up when enchanted. So you'll want to turn that off if you want to control what spells your wand-having players get :)

@Fisaken

Hi! Sorry about that.

The mana upgrades are gone, but they have been replaced by "tier" upgrades. The "student_upgrade", "apprentice_upgrade" and "master_upgrade" items will do more or less the same thing.

Also, my pre-4.0 configs are here, you can always take stuff out of here as needed, or just use them wholesale if you prefer the old configs but want the updated code:

https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/tree/master/src/main/resources/examples/3.9/defaults

The mana upgrades are in "wands.yml".

And you don't actually need the items :) If you're using commands, you can just do

/wand configure xp_max 1000 /wand configure xp_regeneration 100

To add mana to a wand directly.

For magic swords are still there- "/wand battle" should still work for that. You can also still craft one with a diamond sword + nether star.

4.0 Released

I've submitted Magic 4.0 for approval- I'm very excited about this! By far the biggest change to the default Magic experience in a long while.

See the changelog for full info, but here are some highlights:

• There is now one wand recipe, the "Beginner" wand levels up to Student, Apprentice, Master.
• All spells now auto-undo, as safely as possible.
• Spells re-balanced to be "less OP" and more PvP friendly (balance/playtesting ongoing)
• Several new spells added (mainly generic version of Potter spells)
• Engineering magic is restricted to Engineer and Architect levels, which are unavailable until unlocked. Unlocking method is left up to the server admin.
• Brooms and cameras are now craftable. Brooms are enchantable for upgrades.

I hope you all enjoy it, let me know of any issues you find!

1.8

A word about 1.8- Magic's undo/repair system currently does not support banners. In order to do this cleanly, I think I will have to start building against 1.8 - meaning Magic would no longer support 1.7. I may or may not be doing this for Magic 4.1.

I'm not sure yet what that means for the future of this DBO page. I don't think that it would make sense to continue using this for Magic if I can't support any version of CraftBukkit. I will keep you all posted, but chances are I will be migrating to a mostly self-hosted set up for instructions and information, and maybe Spigot for releases.

Try the "wolf" wand if you want. It's hugely OP to turn off costs and cooldowns. Or, use commands:

/wand configure cost_reduction 2
/wand configure cooldown_reduction 2

There are also ways you change the configs to make this the default, but again it will be super OP.

@KreatorB

If you'd like, you can try out the latest dev build- I have switched the defaults so that most wands are destructible. (Still not master) - if you put the following in wands.yml that should change now:

master:
  indestructible: false

The indentation is important, and was messed up in my last post.

EDIT: The "/wand configure" command only modifies the wand you're holding, it does not change the configs. If you want ALL "master" wands to be destructible, you have to edit wands.yml yourself (make sure you're not editing the defaults file!)

@viper_monster

Dev build#627 has updated Factions integration, so it should work with the latest Factions build.

Unfortunately, Factions doesn't really offer an API and I don't actively use the plugin... so when they rework things under the hood, or arbitrarily change what namespace their classes are in, my stuff breaks and I don't really notice.

Please let me know if it's still not working! Thanks :)

@KreatorB

The default config does *not* include a welcome wand- are you finding that players get one on join? It should just be "welcome_wand: " (blank)- but that is the default.

For magic clean - that should've worked, I tried it just now. "ALL" (in all caps) means clean up dropped wands for all players - though it only works in your current world unless run from the console. You can also do "/magic clean <name>" - the message should be

"Cleaning up lost wands in world world for owner ALL"

.. the "world world" thing looks weird, but "world" is the name of your world :)

So, not sure why that didn't work for you :(

As for "indestructible" - I had to look into that one a little bit, and now I want to change how it works :)

tl;dr - it's a little weird/broken right now, and I'm going to fix it. Read on for details if you want :)

If set to "false", it falls back to your config setting for "indestructible_wands" in config.yml, which defaults to true. I think this is just an evolution thing, but I'll probably go ahead and change that to default to false in the next release, otherwise it's not really possible to make destructible wands. :\

Anyway, in the meantime you can set that yourself if you want to have destructible wands, and you can also change it in wands.yml for individual wands to have them be destructible or not.

Sorry if I was ambiguous about config vs command before- they are very similar here. Anything you can tweak in-game with "/wand configure <parameter> <value>" you can change for the wand templates in wands.yml with <parameter>: <value>.

So for instance in wands.yml

master: indestructible: true

Would make the "master" wands indestructible, even after you've changed the default in config.yml.

... This is all kind of confusing, I'm going to make things much simpler in 4.0 .. coming soon, I hope.
