What is Prison?
Prison is a Minecraft plugin that adds all the features necessary for prison servers. Plugins for prison servers exist already, but many of them are poorly maintained, and the solid ones are paid resources. Prison eliminates the paywall and the updating hassle, and puts a one-stop solution in their place.
What can it do?
Prison has two main components - called modules - that are built-in: mines and ranks.
Mines
- Create mines for players to collect materials.
- Have mines automatically reset after a certain amount of time.
- Interactively edit the composition of your mines.
- Teleport your players to safety during a mine reset, so they don't suffocate.
Ranks
- Create ranks for users to buy.
- Use multiple rank ladders. For example, you could have a prestige ladder, or a donor ladder, etc.
- Run commands when users rank up, to give them access to new permissions or set off fireworks in their place.
- Show rank tags in chat with the help of a chat formatting plugin, such as EssentialsX-Chat.
If you have suggestions for features that you'd like to see, you should create a feature request at our issue tracker and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
Why should I switch to Prison?
If hassle-free updates and zero payments is not enough for you to consider switching to Prison, it doesn't stop there.
- Prison is modular. If you don't want to use a certain feature on your server, you can disable it in just a few keystrokes.
- Prison is completely, 100% open source. This means that your developers can make changes to the plugin to customize your server's experience, if you so desire.
- Prison is and always will be free. While we do ask for donations, all of our code, resources, and binaries are provided free of charge to the Minecraft community.
- New releases are heavily bug-tested. We test every single aspect of every new release of Prison before releasing it to the community. If a release doesn't pass our rigorous update checklist, it is iterated upon until it does. What does this mean for you? Solid updates with minimal bugs for your server.
- Prison is always expanding. We are always looking for ways to expand Prison with features that make your server run more smoothly. Additionally, we are always looking for contributions from the community, be it code contributions, feature requests, bug reports, translations, or documentation.

Posted Jul 25, 2014Hey sirfaizdat, /rankup doesn't work... It says there is an internal error.. I created mines, ranks and everything like that. what do I do?

Posted Jul 24, 2014Hello, I was wondering if this is possible.. And by the way I am using PermissionsEx If I'm an owner, staff etc. And I have a Staff prefix but if I do /rankup and rankup to a rank it takes away the Owner or Staff rank's prefix from the user so the only prefix they have is their prison rank. Is it possible to make it so the user can have to prefixes example [D4] [Owner] IceRaider: Hello! Thanks for reading, Please reply!

Create the rank using your permissions plugin, such as GroupManager or PermissionsEx. This is not a replacement for a permissions plugin. It simply ranks them up when they can afford to do so.

Posted Jul 18, 2014PLugin seems to work great but, I can and as well as other players only rank up from A to B.
EDIT: With ranking issue, I found out 2.0.3 doesn't allow to rankup higher than B. But in 2.0.2 allows you to pretty rank up all of the way.

Posted Jul 18, 2014Hey, I added A-C ranks so far and rankup,prefix and everything works great except for when I try to go back to a pex rank named [Founder] It seems that the prison ranks override normal pex ranks and I tried removing me from the groups but It doesn't change anything at all. I still have the Prefix [A] [ And B and C ]. Basically what im saying is: To add a owner,co-owner and other figure ranks, how do I do this without adding it to the Prison Ranks ( as then people can buy them ] ?
