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.

As soon as I'm sure it won't cause any huge bugs. I made critical changes to the ranks system (I added a new save system) and I don't want to destroy anyone's server! That wouldn't be fun :(

Players rank up in the order that the ranks were added.
What permissions plugin do you use?

I have gotten all the mines set up, but when I went to create my ranks they go from A rank to B rank to C then back to B rank and then it starts over. Can anybody help me get this working? Thanks it would mean alot.

Thank you so much! I have a "Mines world" and a "Plotworld" so players was ranking up in both, causing confusion.
Edit: Just realized I hadn't updated the plugin, and that's why "facepalm".

Update to version 2.0.4, delete your config.yml, and once your server restarts, open config.yml and set enable-multiworld to false.

Can you make a config option letting the prison rank the same in all worlds?

I think its something to do with your chat manager plugin, but I'm not sure. As for that donor rank issue, I recommend using PermissionsEx if you want the player to be added to multiple ranks. However, if you want to use GroupManager, I'm sure there's a way, just look it up on Google :)

Does the plugin require essentials for the warps?

Use any permissions plugin (I recommend PermissionsEx, but you can use whatever you want). All you need to do is install Vault and WorldEdit.

Posted Jul 26, 2014What permissions plugin do you use for the ranks and how do servers do the warps for the ranks you have and give you permission for them? Good plugin by the way :D

Do you have Vault installed, and at the latest version? If you do, type /vault-info and make sure that it is using GroupManager for permissions.
