You've got a few options:

/wand unenchant

Will make the wand you're holding into a normal destructible item.

/wand configure indestructible false

Will keep it a wand, but make it destructible. This can be changed in the templates in wands.yml if you want wands to generally be destructible.

Finally,

/magic clean ALL

Will remove any wands already on the ground.

Hope that helps!

How do you destroy a wand or get rid of one if you do not want it?

I ask as I was playing and testing them and made several. I tried to throw them in lava but no go... Any idea as I really do like an item that never gets destroyed or lost...

Hrm- you're the second person to report something like that... did Factions change?

Guess I gotta download it and find out!

Your YML got borked somehow- everything after the first "unknown" line needs to be indented (with spaces). I think 2 spaces is standard, but it needs at least one.

No, all version should work with 1.7, 1.7/1.8 protocol hack or full 1.8.

The latest dev builds do have some 1.8-specific blocks in the config files, but if you run on 1.7 though should just print some warnings to the logs on load and get ignored otherwise.

Magic 4.0 will probably still support 1.7 when I release it, unless I find a compelling reason not to.

Ah, all fixed now. Originally I thought you were simply telling me what I copied the "template" from, I appreciate it. No more free items for my players!

You can set undo on that one, yes - just use "superiterate" as they key.

This is the "super" version of the Iterate spell (probably want to change that one, too!)

At some point I changed the display name to "Column" because it made more sense, but that doesn't make a difference to the configs.

As for the dev build- I understand and you can wait for 4.0 until it's released, there's not much new there you need. Bukkit does not allow for direct links to unapproved builds, sorry!

Sounds good, can't wait.

So I cannot remove/add a undo timer to column?

I didn't download the beta version of magic simply because beta versions scare me, being a developer of many different platforms caused me to be cautious of the nearly untested updates. I did, however, go to the build server, (As you instructed to, to download magic 4.0) it didn't really take me to a download link, though. Is there a direct link to the download?

Doh! That is "superiterate"

All of those spells are going to be gone from the enchanting paths in 4.0.

Engineering magic will still exist, but not be obtainable without an admin setting up a shop or something specific for it.

In the meantime, there are quite a few engineering spells in the enchanting path that you probably don't want people to have. I am changing it all, but it's not ready yet.

Hey, back with a new and huge problem.

Recently one of my players has found the Column spell, and decided to spread the word of it's existence like a wildfire.

Players are now making giant columns of furnaces, pistons and just about any item you can imagine. I couldn't find it in the spells.yml or the spells.default.yml ( Or whatever it is called ) Since I couldn't find it, I couldn't add the 'undo: 10000' tag to it, which is a major problem. Could you give me the "template" for that spell? Or a location along the spells.yml file would work too, but i'm highly doubting it's existence in that file. ( I copied all the spells from the default spells file )

i am aware you can make your own spell template, but when I tried, it didn't seem to work. I just copied a spell template and pasted it, then changed certain things about it. Here is the "template" ( I wasn't sure what to call it )

column: icon: lapis_lazuli category: earthbending class: ConstructSpell worth: 50 effects: cast: - class: EffectSingle sound: level_up - class: EffectTrail effect: step_sound parameters: allow_max_range: false range: 16 thickness: 1 radius: 3 undo: 4000 type: sphere transparent: transparent_to_construction costs: mana: 2500

( I put it in a code tag to keep the whitespaces. )

That was something I did at one point to try and prevent players from "smuggling" wands in between worlds... I forgot it was in there :)

The way that would happen is if you have a wand, but do not have permission to use it, AND you have the "Magic.wand.destruct" permission.

This will result in your wand auto-destructing if you try to use it. I once had the default group in a survival world set with these perms, in case of MV Inventory failure (there were ways to glitch around it..) the player's smuggled wands would explode :D

I expect you found it from some weird combination of superperms and the explicit deny on "use".

Everything is okay now, one of my admins fucked-up with the inheritance. Everything is going Well!

Ps: When my friend and I were testing the wands would vansih and say that they didn't survive the dimensional shift. Do you know why?

You're certain you've negated the permission? I'm pretty confident that much works..

mangaddp default -Magic.wand.use

Right? With the "-" in there and everything?

The thing I was worried about was if you can then undo that with a perm grant - but the - works, unless GM got broken :\
