Do any errors appear on startup or when you do "/magic load"?

That seems most likely to be caused by the configs not actually loading, like a simple parse error perhaps.

@ShadowWolf294

Yup, that's exactly what the Parallel action does :)

Any actions under Parallel execute simultaneously. See the "singularity" spell in the default configs for a nice annotated example:

https://github.com/elBukkit/MagicPlugin/blob/master/src/main/resources/defaults/spells.defaults.yml#L4382

That does a Disc action and Repeat/AreaOfEffect action in parallel, so it is constantly damaging entities in the area while slowly destroying blocks in a radius at the same time.

@ShadowWolf294

So weird- no errors in the console, either? I'm really curious what's going on!

And no- if you wanted to run those two repeats simultaneously, use the "Parallel" action instead.

"Multiply" works more like "Repeat", so if you have

  class: Multiply
  multiply: 10
  actions:
     - class: CustomProjectile
       spread: 10

It will fire 10 projectiles off at once, instead of one after another, like what would happen with Repeat.

@ShadowWolf294

Hm- Magic.commands.* is exactly what I use.. it ought to work. Have you tried "/pex user <you> check Magic.commands.wand"?

>pex user NathanWolf check Magic.commands.wand
[11:15:22 INFO]: Player "4cb358ae-719c-4423-93c7-8769ce46e9c3/NathanWolf" has "Magic.commands.*"

This lets me use /wand and all the rest of the magic commands.

Also I assume this is just a pastebin glitch of some kind... ?

The first essentials line looks mis-aligned there.. but I assume if it really was, it would be totally broken.

@ShadowWolf294

Yup, totally! It would look like this:

actions:
  cast:
    - class: Repeat
      repeat: 5
      actions:
      - class: Damage
    - class: Repeat
      repeat: 3
      actions:
      - class: PotionEffect

etc. You can put parameters under an action that apply only to the action, in case you want them different - these will override the ones in your main "parameters" block.

There is also a new "Multiply" action- which is just like repeat, but runs actions in parallel. I haven't used it much (Meteor Shower), but it has promise :)

And for the perms- it's weird that other plugins respect it but mine does not. I honestly have no idea why that would be :\

@ShadowWolf294

Holy cow, I don't think you should ever give yourself "*" ...

I honestly have no idea what Pex does with that, I've never tried it. I imagine it's supposed to work, but it's not something plugins are supposed to have to account for.

A plugin just asks "does the player have permissions x.y.z?" and a GM says yes or no.

I thought you meant something more like "Magic.commands.*", which I know works.

I wouldn't really advise doing anything less specific than that- there are permissions used for all kinds of game-changing things like bypassing safety checks, etc.

Doh! You found a double-whammy bug. I still have the "elder" wand in the wandshop, which is not part of the default configs anymore. And, there is a bug in the item shops where it's supposed to ignore invalid items/wands.

I'll have both fixed in the next dev build- in the meantime, you can work around it by putting this in your spells.yml:

wandshop:
    icon: wooden_hoe
    category: specialty
    hidden: true
    actions:
        cast:
        -  class: ItemShop
    parameters:
        quiet: true
        confirm: true
        confirm_filler: stained_glass:3
        items:
        - item: wand|default
          cost: 4000
        - item: wand|student
          cost: 80000
        - item: wand|apprentice
          cost: 135000
        - item: wand|master
          cost: 150000
        - item: wand|architect
          cost: 330000
        - item: wand|battle
          cost: 24000

Tweak prices as you wish.

I didn't notice this because I don't actually this wand shop on my dev server or any server I'm active on- generally a player just gets one wand (via crafting, or quest or some such). Most of the wands in this shop are really just to demo each rank, to be honest. And the shop itself is there as an example of how to do it- so your results may vary!

In particular, the engineer and architect wands are incredibly OP!

@Dannebooi1

If you're using Essentials sign shops, you can do "wand: broomstick" for a broom.

Shopkeepers NPC's can sell magic items natively as long as you're on Spigot 1.8.3 or higher.

Otherwise, check out the built-in Magic shops- there is no in-game set up is the main downfall, you have to configure a "spell" for each shop type. There are a few builtin ones to get you started.

Cool!

I put some hacky stuff in that's meant to fix Fling with flight disabled, but there are still a few things like the Rocket Boots that will trigger it- because they just give a huge jump potion effect, and (frustratingly!) the server doesn't take that into account when checking for flight :(

I still leave flight enabled on most servers, but it shouldn't strictly be necessary. If you notice players still getting kicked when Fling'ing let me know :)
