MobCatcher
MobCatcher
Capture mobs and get eggs legitimately:
Version: 3.18
This project has moved over to SpigotMC!
Thank you guys so much for all the downloads on BukkitDev. Head on over to SpigotMC to download the latest version of MobCatcher.
This page will no longer be updated.
MobCatcher allows players to capture mobs and get the corresponding spawn eggs. This is useful for trading and transporting mobs from player to player or even across worlds. As well as having a configurable capture item, MobCatcher also boasts configurable mob types and item costs per capture, bringing a new economic value to mob types both peaceful and hostile. MobCatcher is able to store and recall mob specific data saved to specific spawn eggs. This means things like capturing and spawning colored sheep, baby animals, and tamed wolves is possible! This is done via a separate .dat file which saves data for each mob and removes it when that mob is spawned.Try it out on your server today!
This plugin collects basic usage information for mcstats.org. You may opt out in the generated pluginMetrics config file.

MobCatcher will NOT work if you are not using the version of CB it was intended for. Due to the Bukkit "safeguard' system, MobCatcher will break every version change. Do NOT post tickets or comments about ClassNotFoundExceptions or infinite spawning glitches as these are caused by you using the wrong version.
Before posting a bug, check your server console for a giant red error message.

Posted Jul 24, 2013Hello, So on my server MobCatcher is a donation only perk, however since the recent update it, it seems mobcatcher is on for EVERYONE on the server regardless of permissions. I was just wondering if something had changed for this? I have checked all my permission files and cannot seem to get it to be permission only. (when i install it it is default enabled for everyone). It used to be that no one could use it unless granted the mobcatcher.catch.* permission node.
O and a side note, all the features work- horses and everything.. just the permission thing is the ONLY problem.
Thanks

Posted Jul 21, 2013How are we supposed to get the older versions of Mobcatcher if we are running an older version of Bukkit? I would like 1.5.2 so I don't have to get the dev build of Bukkit. Thank you.

Posted Jul 20, 2013@AnyoneWithABug:
If you aren't using CB build #2812, then switch to that version. If you aren't using that version, I don't even remotely care about the bugs you are having. I have to build against a specific version and when I'm working with dev stage CB builds picking one and staying with it is the only way to guarantee stability. This is what happens when you guys beg me for dev build updates; CB changes and my plugin is full of bugs.
If you are using #2812, make a ticket. I simply cannot read all these comments and just figure out what all the legitimate problems are.

Posted Jul 20, 2013All horses spawned with spawn eggs spawn with 26 hearts, spigot builds #1036 seem to not work and shoot out an error about horse colors, but I guess it was just a build without the horse api. If this is a built-in feature, please add a configurable option. Thank you
Edit: Didn't feel the need to write out a ticket as I was unsure whether this was built-in or a bug.

Posted Jul 20, 2013I have updated to the CB version that's been provided, and when running MobCatcher 3.1.2, I am unable to catch any items, just like LEOcab was experiencing. I have put in a ticket, but was just curious if anyone else was also experiencing this.

No, and you don't need to see my source for that. Ask around on the forums if you can't figure it out, I might even be the one who helps you out over there, lol.
@mrmag518
That's not the best idea if he's trying to learn how to do something. Decompiling will make some really messy code. What he's trying to do is super simple and I'm sure he can figure it out with help from the forums.

Just use a decompiler and decompile the project.

I'm having the same issue you are after updating. I'm running the correct Bukkit version, 3.1.2 of MobCatcher, and have tried resetting my config also. I've put in a ticket, so keep an eye there.

Or you can figure out how to modify the URL to view unapproved versions. (hint: Change the number right after "files/" to a 77 in this case; that number is all that matters when loading a version)

Make a ticket.
@CosmicVoyager
They remove links when I post them. If you 'subscriptions' at the top of the page and click file updates, you'll get a link whenever I update.
It's been 23 hours since I uploaded it. They should be done pretty soon.

Posted Jul 19, 2013Hmm... I'm having the same problem as before. This time the plugin shows green in the plugin list and doesn't throw any errors. Only problem is eggs don't do anything when they hit a mob. They occassionally spawn a baby chicken but there is no capture nor any error messages. Here's my config:
