MatrixBow
Shoot arrows at super-sonic speeds, or shoot with the speed of a snail. I don't care, because it is YOU who gets to control the speed of your bows with MatrixBow!
What it does:
This is my second Bukkit plugin and I am proud to announce MatrixBow! This bow allows you to shoot arrows at different speeds! Simply, craft the desired bow then fire it like normal (hold down right click, then release). This will fire an arrow at the speed depending on the bow. If you use a slow bow, it fires slower and likewise, by firing with a fast bow, it fires faster!
Recipes:
- SuperSlow Bow

- Slow Bow

- Fast Bow

- SuperFastBow

Permissions:
- MatrixBow.use.* - Allows you to use all bows:
- MatrixBow.use.superslow - Allows you to use the SuperSlow Bow
- MatrixBow.use.slow - Allows you to use the Slow Bow
- MatrixBow.use.fast- Allows you to use the Fast Bow
- MatrixBow.use.superfast - Allows you to use the SuperFast Bow
Notes:
- SuperSlow - 10 times slower than normal
- Slow - twice as slow as normal
- Fast - twice as fast as normal
- SuperFast - 10 times faster than normal
- The faster the bow, the more powerful it is
- The faster the bow, the further the arrow travels
- The slower the bow, the less distance it travels
To Do:
- Post suggestions into the comments below and I will see what I can do!
Future ideas:
According to MinecraftWiki: "Other properties like weapon damage/bow draw speed/sword swing speed are yet to follow." Hopefully, the bow draw speed could affect the speed of the Matrix Bows, or it may encourage further bows to be added.

Posted Aug 29, 2014Hey awesome plugin! Would you be able to add permissions to craft the bows? That would be very convenient, thanks!

If some classes aren't supposed to have the permission, negate it by putting a '-' before it. For example, give someone the '-MatrixBow.use.*' (without the quotes) permission and they won't be able to use them.

Posted Jun 30, 2014For me, every class on my server can use/create the bows, although I only have one class that has any of the permissions, is this meant to happen, is there something I'm missing? Thanks! Other than that, great plugin!

Indeed, it does curve (downwards) when the bow is fired. When you take a look at normal bows, they also are affected by the gravity of the world and the arrow 'curves'. The curves are greatly increased on the slower bows, but this too, is mainly due to the slower velocity and built in gravity effects.
I haven't seen any effects of the arrow curving sideways though.

Request acknowledged. Version 1.2 has been uploaded with a configuration to change the name of the bows - hopefully, the file can be approved quickly so you can have it :)

Posted May 25, 2013Can you make a configuration file so that the bows can have other names when people craft them?
Thanks!

By default, players have got permission to use these features (so it isn't compulsory to require a permissions plugin to use its features). However, if you have a permissions plugin like groupmanager and you use the '-' before a permission, it negates that permission.
For example, if you wanted to prevent players from using the fast bow, you would add the permissions '-MatrixBow,use,fast'

The half speed arrow does indeed, cover less distance

Posted May 22, 2013does a half speed arrow cover less distance?
or does it follow the normal trajectory but slowly?
