Bukkit

@blainicus:

Is there anyway to incorporate a part of the mod in which the mobs ignore certain players? Using permissions?

(I would like to set up a game type with an enemy player who tries to thwart the survival of the other players. I could just use creative, but I don't trust the other players enough to give them creative.)

Also, it would be nice for Giants to have mega-aggro. Currently they just spawn outside the walls and sit there all night unless you run very close to them. Only then do they become dangerous.

First there are no zombies, and after a few seconds it suddenly in 1000. they all spawn at the same time this is a bug?

Dragoncaster stops working when this plugin is added, is there some way i can fix it?

Sorry to sound like a downer on this plugin because it has great potential- But the support is terrible. There exists no concice explanation as to how the hundreds of lines of configuration work, what evxactly does work or doesnt- whats been DISABLED but is still in there, the countless things that dont make sense :\

It appears that MobManager does almost everything this plugin does and a few more- Is way less laggy and actually works. It is intuitive and has active support

I'm all fpor giving praise where it's due- And i really do love the bonus spawn and nerdpoling features- But this plugin is basically broken

The config isn't working at all. Bukkit registers the plugin, because i see the /monsterapocalypse in the commands help page. But when i save the config and restart the server, the config doesnt apply at all, no matter what i configure, it doesnt do any difference to the world. To quickly go back and forth between the config and the server i set always night: true, and it just doesnt work. I don't know whats wrong with it. This looks like a really awesome plugin that you have here, please help?

Im still messing around with it, and i had the bukkit cmd up and i saw something fly by on the screen that caught my eye. I scrolled up to find what it was and there is an error thats says exactly: ...ERROR] cannot load plugins\Monster_Apocalypse\config.yml org.bukkit.configuration.InvalidConfigurationException: mapping values are not allowed here in "<string>", line 8 , column 129: ...seEnable natural hostile spawns?: trueEnable natural passive spa... ^

i dont know what to do, please help! Thank you!

a reload command?

A few questions....

1. Is there a sheet somewhere that lists all the blocks with seconds next to them for the zombie break properties? I'd do it myself but hand doing it is kind of tedious.

2. Is it possible to give other mobs the block breaking feature as well?

3. Is there a way to allow monsters to attack other mobs, destroy items, steal items, etc?

Thanks for the great plugin. This plugin is a must have for survival mode imho. Keep up the great work blainicus. =)

hard cap on all mobs set to 10- /butcher killed 3000 mobs. Ive tried getting 3 other "despawn" plugins to stop insane amounts of mobs around players- nothing is working! I want there to always be zombies but not so they accumulate to the point where it crashes..... errrrgggg

Oh i also forgot to ask- is there a way to get it to not spawn more than X monsters near a player? Hard cap on all mobs spawning: 1000 I went to my spawn and did /butcher and killed over 3500 zombies :\

I also noticed the wolves receive damage just by standing around- I dont have wolves spawning for this very reason because its annoying.

I can use worldguard to limit where mobs spawn i suppose- ill just use the same method as global but have regions defined for Y ranges and deny specific mobs.

As for "Naturalistic" spawns- that doesnt seem to work.... at all. I have the "naturalistic spawn per tick" set to 1000 and it doesnt make a different- not cave spiders are spawning in the Y range i define (I assume that would be the only way to get certain mobs to spawn in certain Y)

surprised that you have advanced properties for everything like squid and chicken...but no properties for slimes or magma cubes

If I set "Make wolves aggressive?: true", and wolves are consistently damaged while wolves chase players. and "explode on death? = true" setting doesn't apply. please fix it :)

@blainicus

So I must create "underground" region which prevent spawning Ghasts underground.
So what about Withers don't spawning? They should spawn 3 times often than Ender Dragons but each day players kills nearly 5 Dragons but any Wither don't appear...

I dont understand the difference- If you tell the plugin the "MAX Y it is able to use to FIND a place" then wouldn't it still work the same? If you are saying it's impossible to restrict spawning to a certain Y axis then thats fine ill look for a way to do it elsewise.

Also, is there a way to prevent mobs from either - spawning within a certain range of spawn, or ignore players inside a worldguard region with a certain flag? Monsters are flooding players in spawn as soon as they join and currently the only way I can think of to avoid it is make a big worldguard region where mob spawning is set to false, and make the region bigger than the aggro of the mobs so they dont flood my spawn

@blainicus Thats exactly what mine looks like-

As you can see, my setup is exactly liek yours! The Y settings are actually 63- but they still shouldnt be spawning on top of buildings. The "naturalistic" spawns dont appear to do anything. The only way to get them to spawn is if i add them directly to bonus spawns list- but then they spawn above the Y range.
