PrisonRankup
PrisonRankup
The highest-rated and most practical rankup plugin designed specifically for the ever-popular Prison server is finally here. This plugin features a unique database built into the config to house each individual player’s rank to prevent losing ranks, glitching out of the system, and allowing multiple groups to be compatible with popular permissions plugins, including PermissionsEX and GroupManager. Accessing player’s information has never been easier, as one can simply type “/rankup get (name)” to retrieve the player’s display name, rank, and current balance. In order for the balance feature to work, as well as the plugin itself, Vault is required.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Commands:
/rankup - Ranks the sender up to the next available rank (prisonrankup.rankup)
/rankup set (player) (rank) - Sets the given player to the given rank (prisonrankup.set)
/rankup stats (rank) - Receive statistics of a rank given (prisonrankup.stats)
/rankup create (rank) (price) - Create a rank in-game (prisonrankup.stats)
/rankup get (player) - Retrieve a player profile (prisonrankup.get)
/rankup reload - Reloads the config.yml (prisonrankup.reload)
/rankup update - Update PrisonRankup (prisonrankup.update)
/ranks - Shows you available ranks (prisonrankup.ranks)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Default Configuration File:
# Welcome to configuring PrisonRankup, I will be here to guide you through this config setup # First let me introduce myself, I am Mazen. I consider myself an expert in configuring Plugins and YAML configs and an advanced Java developer # First thing I want you to do is to set the prefix (What comes before the message) for the plugin to use. Keep the speech marks please to avoid errors. Prefix: '&a[&bPrison&6-&bRankup&a]' #Do not touch this! version: 3.0 # Next thing I want you to do is set the message you want it to be when somebody ranks up. Keep the speech marks here as well. # The %player% will be replaced with the players name, and the %rank% will be replaced with the rank they ranked up to. Rankup BC Message: '&3%player% &6has ranked up to &3%rank%' # Now, the most important part of this plugin is the rankup ladder groups: #Heres an example of the format of how it should be: # rank name:price #DO NOT REMOVE THE # FROM THE ABOVE! - A:30 - B:100 - C:300 #Here, I will be asking you to put the first rank on the ladder in this example A First Rank: 'A' # As well as the last rank to assure that we can message the player that he is at the end of the ladder Last Rank: 'C' # This message is the message we will send to the player if he is the highest rank. Highest Rank MSG: '&6 You are already the highest rank!' # This next one is if you want to use a timed requirement for your rankup system, set it to true if yes. Default is false; Timed Requirement: false # Now we're if you set it to true you will have to set a certain time that you want to be done for the rank requirement Time Interval: 0.0 # Here you will write what the time is based on, seconds, minutes or hours. Spelling does matter! Time type: Seconds # If you want, I added an option where you can choose if you want to make it so that the interval is added to every Rankup Sequence Interval on all ranks: false # Now you're almost there! Theres just one last part, If you're switching from Rankup and/or majority of Rankup plugins set this to true. If not, set it to false. # What this does is check if the player has a rank that is listed in groups (Every minute) and if so, makes a profile with that rank. Transfer ranks to profile: false # Set the next item to false if you do not want to use the updater update: true # Set this to true if you wish to enable debug mode debug: false # This is the format of the ranks which will appear when a player does /ranks #Variables are: %price%, %rank% ranks-format: '&5[&3%rank%&5]&6: %price%' # Here, is the message the player will recieve when he doesn't have enough money to rankup #Varaibles are the same as the ones shown above not-enough-money: '&6You need &2$%price% &6 to rankup to &2%rank%'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Switching
Are you switching from another Rankup plugin? Simple! Set the “Transfer ranks to profile” option to “true” in the config.yml!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.8 Compatibility
1.8 compatibilities with UUIDs have been implemented in version 2.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Using the Sign Integration
You can make signs that work for PrisonRankup like this (You require the permission prisonrankup.sign):

Then, once you place it you will get something like this:

And congratulations! Now you have a sign that be used to Rankup!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Plugin Updater
As of Version 1.3 I have integrated an updater to the plugin, just do /rankup update to Update the plugin. You may disable this feature by setting updater to false in the config.yml
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PrisonRankup Connects to Mojangs Servers
As of the UUID Update, PrisonRankup connects to 'sessionserver.mojang.org' as well as 'api.mojang.com' to fetch UUIDs and names.

Running latest spigot build. Also when players type /rankup their rank gets reset but they still have access to the permissions from the rank they had before.

Ignore that post from me. It was 3 in the morning on a school night and I was trying to set up a plugin that allows /rankup. This had been the 3rd one I had tried that wasn't working and ya I was pretty pissed and extremely tired. I apologize for that. After the a command will update the config was added it seems to be working good now.

We have no obligation for you to use my plugin, however today I have added it where it will update the PrisonRankup config.yml when you run a command that adds a player to a group.

I am using Vault, Iconomy, and PEX, and whenever somebody ranks up, it doesn't take any money from them.

Quoting @TheExperiment
"From what I can tell, the reason he did this is to make the plugin as light weight as it is. When it gets the rank from Vault(PEX) every time, it will cause more RAM to be used than needed. I personally like the way that this is done. My say on it is that when someone becomes staff, taking the extra 15 seconds or less to change it in the PrisonRankup file is a sacrifice that I would be willing to make"

Could you please remove the feature that keeps the users ranks? It messes up my perms. If someone is moved to another group it doesnt move them in that file and then it messes it all up.

Lets say a player is rank 10 and they bought vip off my server store powered by buycraft, will it remove there rank 10 and give them rank vip?
