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 Jan 21, 2015Voidminer60, My server is also reporting that is an update available but when I compare the md5sum of my Prison.jar it matches the published md5sum on the download page for the latest version. So I have the latest but for some reason it reports that it is 2.1.0.1 not 2.1.1.

Posted Jan 20, 2015I wanted to know if the prison balance (money) is separate from the essentials economy. I believe I use essentials economy and I use the vault plugin to manage that kind of thing. Is the prison balance separate? If it is not possible I was wondering if I could change the values for each of the blocks so I wouldn't have to change all the costs of items in other worlds to billions. I have searched through a few of the files but it is not anything I would understand. Could you help me in this situation? Thanks.

That is correct, they need to be the same case. I haven't tried but possibly they need to be lowercase? Also make sure to that b has inheritance -a; c has inheritance -b; etc.

Hey :) Are you saying if I make them both in the same case then they will work? I've tried this too. I may be misunderstanding what you are saying though?

Posted Dec 29, 2014SOLUTION TO rankup problem:
I had the same issue...although prison sees the group in GM if the case is not exact (lowercase for me) on both then it will keep ranking you up to the same rank. You will be rocking and rolling from there.

Having this same error.
I am using Groupmanager and I am in the group "Owner".
I have ranks A and B created. When I rank to A my prefix works just fine. But I just created the B rank and when I rankup to it, my prefix does not change. I also made myself the "A" group with group manager and tried ranking up that way but my prefix still does not change even though it says I have ranked up. I tried multiple times and they all came out with the same error. Could you help me out SirFaizdat? Am I doing something wrong O_O. By the way, Nice work on the plugin :)!

Posted Dec 21, 2014When I update to 2.1.1 and you release 3.0 .. Will the mines again not be able to be converted? If thats so, I'll stick to 2.0.6 before i have to readd all mines..

Posted Dec 20, 2014Sorry if I haven't been answering your support questions, I've been feeling the same way I felt before I released 2.0 - this plugin needs a recode as it is way too buggy and people are starting to think there's a lack of features which I can't add due to the messiness. I decided to start working on version 3.0. Read more here.
