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.

/pwarps is in development and it is disabled until the official release of 2.1.2. This is why GUIAPI has no use until the official release.
You can safely remove GUIAPI, for now.
Thanks,
DMP9

Posted Mar 20, 2015pwarps issue
Sorry to ask, but /pwarps does nothing. And theres no documentation.
I have guiapi installed and the debug mode of guiapi says nothing and i have set the spawns for mines.

Cool! Glad that worked. And I have set no limitations... If there are limitations I will remove them! People deserve to have a mine at any size. Although if Faizdat added the limitations I can not remove them.

Leave a ticket. Spigot problems? Use this build. I built Prison with that build. The log for some reason is always full of Prison errors, but they have no impact!

Posted Mar 20, 2015Your plugin is often broken, and almost every evening the log of my server is full with these messages. I have already written about it on spigot.org but nobody answered me.. http://pastebin.com/76axVEH2

Yea I did that also...I am thinking that the mine is too small to properly function so I am gonna make it bigger and see what happens. It is also enclosed in a structure that a player built, (he wanted to contribute to the server) that is quite compact as well. It seems that the players are being stuck in the back wall of the mine rather than in the blocks but the Spawn point is in he front of the mine, so yea, interesting. Right now we are calling it a "feature" of the mine and have posted warnings to heed the mines reset warning! :) == Edit == Yea, made the mine bigger and it fixed it...Kinda of a limitation don't you think? Just a thought.

Interesting. If the mines spawn is set then theres no reason why it shouldn't work. You could try and recreate the mine, then tell me if the problem is still present

Posted Mar 19, 2015I have one mine that will not teleport players out when it resets? Do the mines have to be a minimum size or what can possibly be wrong with this one mine...Yes, /mines setspawn is set.

We like to keep our suggestions and bugs all in one place. And work though them like a list. Also the other developers can see this if its on a tickets. Well, they can see it anyway but it just saves us all time hunting for suggestions in comments. And some other reasons (including the one you said)
Also the person you talked to, DMP9, is busy with many projects at the moment (including prison) so he may sometimes be unable to do all the work. That's why I'm a ticket manager

I was just a bit confused as to why I had to create a ticket when you've seen it in the comments, but I suppose it's just for people to see if the idea has already been suggested or some other reason. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You have to create the rank in your permissions plugin first, and then add it to Prison.
