MagicSpells
Note: MagicSpells is being maintained on this GitHub fork and you can find help at the official Discord.
Info
MagicSpells is a Minecraft Bukkit plugin that creates magic spells your players can use. Its main purpose is to give your players access to certain abilities that you might not want to give them unlimited access to. However, instead of just giving them access to boring commands, they instead get more interesting spells. Each spell can be configured in many ways:
- Reagent costs (the cost of using the spell, including items, mana, health, hunger, experience, and item durability)
- Cooldowns (the amount of time a player must wait between uses)
- Durations (how long certain effects last)
- Ranges (how far away spells can be used from their target)
- Many more options, depending on the spell
Spells can be cast by using the /cast command, swinging a configurable wand item, or both. It's also possible to have them triggered from other actions the player may take. It's all customizable.
Usage
Before a player can cast a spell, they must already know it. There are several ways a player can learn a spell:
- Taught with the teach spell
- Learned from a spellbook
- Learned from a tome
- Gained from a grant permission
- Purchased from a shop
- Being a server op (they know all spells) For example, a server op can teach Bob the blink spell by typing: ''/cast teach bob blink''.
Once a spell is learned, it can be cast either by using the ''/cast'' command or by using a wand item. Now that Bob knows the blink spell, he can either cast it by command, by typing ''/cast blink'', or he can cast it with a wand item. To select the spell, he holds the wand in his hand and right clicks. Right clicking will cycle through any spells assigned to the item he is holding. When he has the one he wants, he left clicks to cast.
If Bob does not have the required reagents for the spell, or if he has cast it recently and it is still on cooldown, he will not be able to cast the spell and will instead receive an error message.
If mana is enabled, a player can use the ''/mana'' command to see how much mana they currently have. Mana can also be configured so it is displayed on the experience bar.

First off my god is that a terrible way to balance a server, but second you can already do this yourself if you use a Passive Spell that casts Mana Regen on Buff.

Posted Aug 4, 2012Possibly consider adding a permission node to halve the cooldown time for certain users? Would be a great perk for donators!

Posted Aug 3, 2012Been playing around with pulsers, they work great and are fantastic. Combining them with the new sound effects is amazing as well. Only issue is getting the diamond block to change to others, just doesn't work but thats fine :P

All spells are capable of a restrict-to-worlds: config option. You are able to list what worlds the spell is allowed in.
You could also use a global worldguard region and blacklist the spells for that "region".

Xikage, in irc, created a spell to do this. It works quite well. There might be a link to it in the spell forums with description how to use it. If not, and you are interested, and someone else doesn't link to it first, PM me and i can link you the file and the spell config information.

Posted Jul 31, 2012Is there a spell so that when you shoot an arrow with a bow it uses a spell (when the arrow lands)? Like the projectile spell, but utilizing the bow.
