Bukkit

Hi! I'm new to OtherDrops, and can't seem to get it working. I've tried everything it says to do in the tutorials, but nothing works. I think I may be putting the drops in the wrong place, can someone link me to a video or send me a screenshot of where to put the new drops in the otherdrops-drops.yml?

• Is it possible to make it so enemies can spawn from spawners, but not drop any items when killed, in any way? (Note: On spawner spawns only)
• is it possible to give monsters double xp drops?

Thanks :D

    ANY_BLOCK:
        - action: RIGHT_CLICK
          tool: POTION@45
          message: "You feel drunk."
          consumetool: 1
          potioneffect: CONFUSION@500@15

and

    ANY_BLOCK:
        - action: RIGHT_CLICK
          tool: POTION@45
          message: "You feel drunk."
          replacetool: 0 or AIR
          potioneffect: CONFUSION@500@15

I tried both of these, with no success. (I also tried replacing with glass bottle, 374, and it replaced it correctly, but the glass bottle still had the same name the potion had).

I seem to have problems with lore names... I'm trying to use potions, and everything works fine without a name. As soon as the potion has a name, if I try to replace the tool with something, the new item always has the same name. And when I try replacetool: AIR or 0, nothing at all happens. I try consumetool: 1, but that also doesn't appear to consume the potion if it is named. I tried making it consume the tool and drop a glass bottle, but nothing happens. Is there any way around these problems?

No, I tried, using the custom mob name for checking which mob it is, doesn't work yet, not in my tests anyway.
I think the same goes for using the lorelines to identify items.

But we only just got the ability to, so that might be expecting a bit too much too soon.

Hi

And yeah it's in the config, I changed the damage for posting here (iunno why) and ate the colon.
And adding to existing damage would be beyond what I'd hope for (would that mean enchants work?), that would be so cool. (though how to make something do less damage, support negative damage?)

I'm loving writing configs for this plugin, there's so much you can do ^^
I'm basically using it to create custom items which get checked based on lore name.
Then having 'custom' enemies spawn with different health so I can add the rare new items to them. Dropping wands from magicalspells, stuff from enchantmore too.

This is my personal favourite, because people just love finding entire buildings lol:
    ANY_BLOCK:
        - tool: BOOK
          action: RIGHT_CLICK
          consumetool: 1
          world: variation
          height: ">60"
          lorename: '&rBlueprint II Treehouse'
          command: ["/*/schematic load treehouse", "/*/paste"]
        - tool: BOOK
          action: RIGHT_CLICK
          world: variation
          height: "<60"
          lorename: '&rBlueprint II Treehouse'
          message: "Too low! Use above Y60"

Sorry for the long comments, but am really excited about being able to name my 'custom' mobs now xd

Does anyone know of a plugin that allows you to change block/item textures based on data value/lorename? The reason I ask that here, is because I think that the two plugins alongside each other would make a super-plugin that would destro- be awesome.

I've been using od to introduce custom items, that do completely new things, and have no relation to their base item, but they still look like them; I'd like to make saplings look like seeds until you plant them; etc. and we could do it all then

@im87pen

You can specify specific mobs by their spawn reason (spawnedby: <spawn reason>) or by their max health. I'll give you an example of what I mean by max health:

  OBSIDIAN:
      - drop: SILVERFISH@!!9H
  SILVERFISH@!!9H:
      - drop: OBSIDIAN
        flags: UNIQUE

EDIT: I don't know if this can be done, but mob names might be able to be used as well.

@ZariusT

Having events triggered by burnt blocks could still have some uses - it doesn't have to drop an item, it could make a replacement block, or some other effect.

Will you be able to make A certain one monster not the whole type of mosters drop this item? if thats psossible?

Hiya

I need some help with this, because I'm at a total loss..
Using 2.8b.459
I'm for example trying to make a special named diamond sword that does a custom amount of damage.

ANY_CREATURE:          
        - tool: DIAMOND_SWORD
          lorename: '&rBlue Shade&d'
          action: LEFT_CLICK
          damage.victim 20

This.. will cause massive 2050 line error to come up in the console, but it -does- work..
http://pastebin.com/edwDEBWY

I think I'm doing something that's not allowed lol.
It could also be a bug.. or maybe a future feature?
So I was playing around, trying things.. I got to this:

ANY_CREATURE:          
        - tool: DIAMOND_SWORD
          lorename: '&rBlue Shade&d'
          action: LEFT_CLICK
          delay: 1
          damage.victim 20

It works!.. buuut, when the mob gets damaged by the delayed hit, it assumes you attacked it again? Regardless.. it will keep dealing 20 damage untill the mob dies.
I tried the HIT action for both examples, but same results, using player as tool too.

I'm not sure if it's even possible.. but getting so close.
If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if this will work on blocks, but try:

  LOG:
      - tool: DAMAGE_FIRE
        drop: 263@1
        chance: 50%

If it works, it should allow logs to drop charcoal half of the time when burnt (but remember, the fire itself can destroy the drops).

Hi, first of all thanks for making a great plugin. :) Is there a setting where I can check if a block (not a creature) is destroyed by fire. I always wanted to drop a little charcoal now and then if a tree is burned down. As I understand it right now you can only check for water destruction. Many thanks

@ZariusT

Hmm this overpowered zombie setup is not only working on newest version of otherdrops, every older from bukkitdev is ok. Are some syntaxes has changed?
