Mob Health

This simple but invaluable plugin lets you know the damage you just caused to a mob (including other players), and how much health it has left.

Now with ActionBars!

If you have 1.8 bukkit/spigot then you can now enable actionbars by adding useActionBar: true to your config (or set to false to disable).

-

Mob Health has a range of useful options including:

• Control over how messages are shown
• When messages are shown
• When messages are *not* shown (a useful feature!)
• Exactly what is displayed - including your own custom messages...

Current Release Version: 9.1.0

Updater Information
Note that unless you edit MobHealth configuration it will automatically update as new versions are approved by the Bukkit team.

You can edit config.yml in the /plugins/MobHealth/ folder you can find the following settings.

updateCheck true

Show notification of available updates.

doUpdate true

Update MobHealth automatically when new download is available.

Change doUpdate to false to stop any file download, and updateCheck to false to stop notices about new versions in your startup log.

Got API?

MobHealth now has 100% more API included!

You can trigger damage notifications, if your plugin adds skills or spells for example. And far more usefully - you can query MobHealth to get the current health and max health of any Mob, regardless of which plugin is responsible for tracking it.

Think of it as Vault for mob health levels ;) You code for one plugin - I sort out the mess behind the scenes.

See the API page for more info.

NEW healthbars!!

As frequently requested, MobHealth can now display health bars above Mobs, and a health counter for players.

PLEASE NOTE: If enabled - these bars show above ALL players / mobs, regardless of any toggle or permissions settings.

Enable this feature with the following flags in config:

showPlayerHeadHealth: true

Enables health counter display below player names.

usePercentForPlayer: true

Changes health counter from HP to a percentage of health left (recommended).

showMobHeadHealth: true

Enable health bars for all mobs.

useBarForMobs: true

If true, use a health bar in format of [||||||||||] if false, show in format of "10/20"

Stats Collection

Like many bukkit plugins, Mobhealth utilises Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:

• A unique identifier
• The server's version of Java
• Whether the server is in offline or online mode
• The plugin's version
• The server's version
• The OS version/name and architecture
• The core count for the CPU
• The number of players online
• The Metrics version
• The number of damage notices displayed (but not their content)

Opting out of this service can be done by editing plugins/Plugin Metrics/config.yml and changing opt-out to true.

Download

Github no longer allows a "downloads" section, so I no longer mirror files there. If you'd like to test beta/dev versions follow me on twitter and ask there! But understand such files would not yet be approved by BukkitDev staff.

Known Bugs/Conflicts

• Plugins that alter mobs health levels usually return false health levels.
  The plugins listed above are supported.

Donations

Donations of any amount are, of course appreciated :)

Contributions go towards maintaining my development server to encourage continued development, MobHealth is solo coded by me, and supporting so many other plugin takes a fair bit of time. So if you think that time is worth something then Hit the dontae button in the top right of this page :)
