OtherDrops

Make anything drop anything, anyhow!
Minecraft 1.7 features (click)!!
OtherDrops allows you to add anything from a simple "glass drops glass" or mob rewards, to a complex overhaul of your servers drops with drops differing depending on tools, biome, time, weather and much more, along with custom messages, actions and commands.
OtherDrops is lightweight* (it only acts on what you configure) and respects most protection plugins (eg. WorldGuard, Regios) settings. Many examples are included that you can enable and/or customize as you wish.
Getting Started (tutorials)
- Install & setup first custom drops
- Customising mob & block drops
- Customising money & XP rewards
- Customising fishing rewards
- Customising mob spawns
Core Features

- Use triggers such as block break, combat, fishing & more
- Conditions to fine-tune your drops such as tool, world, regions, weather, permissions & more
- Add actions including damage, healing, messages, potion effects & more
- Easy syntax allows you to quickly customize drops & rewards for your server
- Future Support

Actions
- Apply actions alongside the drop (or even without a drop)

- Apply potion effects to the victim, player, radius, world or server

- Allow gold and iron to be mined directly into ingots with a golden pickaxe.
- Allow users to right-click on cobblestone with vines in hand to turn the cobblestone mossy.
- Nerf mob traps by disabling drops from environmental damage.
- Unleash the zombie apocalypse by setting zombies to drop zombies when they die! (This can be world-specific.)

- Make mob spawning, drops, and events biome specific!

Help Wanted
Would you like to help improve OtherDrops? Here are some ways to get involved:
- Media/art: OtherDrops could really do with some tutorial and example videos.
- Testers: Testers who are able to go through the plugin and rigorously check that things (both existing and new features) work as they should. PM Zarius your Skype (or other IM) details if you're interested or jump on the IRC channel.
- Programming: any assistance is welcomed - see the todo list here for some ideas. Anyone with refactoring and/or automated testing experience that wants to assist would be great.
Thanks

Check to see if you have any drops using a SKULL_ITEM or 397. I got the same error but fixed it by disabling the drops causing the problem.
EDIT: Never-mind, it works in 2.8 beta 5.1

Woah... that thing moves quick :D
edit: Great, now I have to allow checking for a "spider^spider^spider^spider^spider^spider^spider" as a target so you can get different rewards! Hmm... don't get too excited though, not sure it's possible as they're all unique entities.

Yeah, I did have a preview pic but it shifts the logo out of alignment (because the pic insists on showing at the topright of the main page) :\ Will have to try again and see if I can avoid that.
@Abnormal_Zombie
Ah, yes - glad it's working now :) Yeah, need documentation on the new features but I'm too busy fixing up bugs to try and get a release out :)
Oh, I've got leather amor, skull names & money@percentpenalty in now - but for some reason boats still drop boats (minecarts and just about everything else works as expected).

I have been meaning to comment on it. Whenever I think about It I get distracted about something else...
It is really good! I also like your cowbats photo :)
Although hard to see, the enchanted dirt is freakin awesome.
You should add a photo to the OtherDrops preview picture on the plugins search to help get the attention of more people.

Haha I was thinking it looks really nice. Just didn't mention it :/ The slime stack and text go great together. Also liking the stream of items on the left, really symbolizes the plugin!

Odd (pun intended) - /odd not working I understand could clash but /od drop should work - what does /od by itself do? Also, have you tried disabling the other plugins temporarily to see if it works then?

Posted Feb 22, 2013Since the /odd command seemed to be working for everyone else I didn't mention that it doesn't work for me. I'm guessing it's interfering with another plugin. Can anyone help/suggest something? My plugins which may interfere are:
-essentials
-essentialsAntiBuild
-essentialsChat
-NoCheatPlus
-OtherDrops :D
-permissionsEx
-skript
Note: I tried both /odd and /od drop

I'm not exactly sure what you are having it drop from and if you have drops override on or not, so I made this to drop from stone 0.2% of the time. Obviously you can edit this however and make it work for you.

Not sure why it would work for Steelsouls and not for you but perhaps make sure the string it's in is surrounded by quote marks?
eg. "lorename: §9Lucky Shears"

That's so weird! Works fine for me. Are you using Beta4 or Beta5? If Beta5 I'll bet Zarius added support for & and maybe removed support for the §. I'm using Beta4 and have multiple other entries using § and I'm not receiving any errors.
Try replacing the § with & and see if that works.

Your example doesn't work for me, I get yaml errors for invalid character use because of the "§". :(

Posted Feb 22, 2013EDIT 2: This post started out as an "I need help" post and now I got it working. So instead of deleting the post I'm sharing my Lucky Shears drop setup. I made them drop using a color-coded lorename which prevents players from making these shears themselves.
I'm working on making a custom loot table (like an RPG) with some common/rare magic items. I thought lucky shears would be great to help out wool farmers. I'm actually going to include Lucky Shears I, II, and III with different amounts of wool, but here's the basic model. The wool amount is 2-4 because this cancels the default "shearing" drop. Sheep usually shear for 1-3 wool so these shears just increase the min/max by 1 each.
