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.

Yes, you can read more about it in these links. http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/safeguarding-against-unchecked-and-potentially-damaging-plugins.116749/

TL;DR - Every time a minecraft or craftbukkit file is changed, it is renamed and every plugin that was using it breaks.

Posted Jan 22, 2013Sorry, yeah for some reason we were still on that last 1.4.6 and hadn't noticed. Is it Bukkit causing these frustrations between beta updates?

It was uploaded 2 days and 14 hours ago, still waiting approval.
If you're using CB 1.4.7-R0.1 Beta build, make a ticket. But I can tell from that error that you are not.
@krisdestruction
If you would fill out a ticket I can actually get it fixed. (Assuming its not the same issue Leponder is having, in which case I say to you the same thing)
@Everyone
If plugin breaking changes are going to be occurring every single beta update, as opposed to every minecraft version change, it's just not realistic for me (or any dev) to keep up maintaining this project, especially if it's going to take longer to get a file approved than it does for my file to become obsolete. This is ridiculous.

mmmm. No, it looks like I didn't add any permissions to that command.
I can add that in, but atm that's not really hurting anything.

Posted Jan 21, 2013My users only have the following permissions - mobcatcher.sign mobcatcher.no-wolves mobcatcher.free mobcatcher.sign
Although when a player does /mobc, it gives them the option to do anything. They are able to reload the config. Is this a permissions issue?

As the file is likely still being "reviewed", are you able to post another download link or dropbox or elsewhere? Thanks!

Posted Jan 19, 2013I've uploaded the new 1.4.7 compatible version. Note that this version is NOT backwards compatible, nor will it work on 1.4.8+ once such a thing is released.

This plugin is completely 100% broken on 1.4.7, as it will be from now on on every minecraft version change. Use an older version of Bukkit, or wait for the MobCatcher update.
@Everybody
I'm working on it right now. Should be done in the next few hours. Assuming all the major things are working, I might get to some other tickets, but likely those things will have to wait.
