If you are using the plugin Plugman, which I highly suggest your server should have, make sure you disable Shield before changing the config. If not, make sure the server is off before you change the config. The reason for this is that the plugin saves the config, that is already loaded, over that config you change, which is currently used to keep track on who has disabled their shield notices. I might make player notices save on a txt file in a later update. For your durability question, I noticed that items that aren't tools, such as dirt blocks, do not work well with durability and might not even work at all! However, all items can have a stack number. Therefore, I just used the stack number as a "fake durability" bar.

Posted Nov 18, 2012Hi there, I may have a bug, i am trying to change the config file but its overwritten every time i reload the plugin. I am trying to get 10 shields instead of 64.
Also out of curiosity, what was your motivation to make the shield a stack rather then using the durability bar like tools and swords have?

Posted Nov 17, 2012You may want to fix the version on your thread; the title says 0.9, but the post says 0.8 still.

Posted Nov 8, 2012hey @firecopy, Would you like me to create a SpoutPlugin addition to this plugin? If so, I would subbmit you a PR on github when SpoutPlugin is updated to 1.4.2. (which is soon).
There would still be no need to use Spoutcraft, it just would enhance the experience even more. And I f you want to do it yourself... great!
I really enjoy that your code is open-source. :)

Hey, I love all of your plugins, and I have a suggestion for this plugin that would make it waaayy better in my opinion. When holding the shield, could you add the potion effect fire resistance so you can't get caught on fire when holding the shield? This plugin works great already but players get set on fire and it eventually ends up killing them. Please consider my suggestion :D It would make my server sooo much better.

Posted Oct 29, 2012Hey can you add a file where you can customize the "You were protected by your shield" messages? I would rather have the messages be much shorter. Perhaps, "Attack blocked!".

Posted Sep 1, 2012And I have could you add an energy shield using the item id 9? Just make it so you can't place the block without a permission. (Somthing like shield.eshield.place Edit: I've thought about this more. I want it to be a layered bubble shield with the player in the middle. This layout is viewing it from the top in layers. O=Air W=Water Layer 1 (Bottom): OWO WOW OWO Layer 2 (Middle): OWO WOW OWO Layer 3 (Top): OOO OWO OOO I want this to slow the player to sneaking speed. (You could just use a potion effect thought.) Make it so mobs can't get through, but you can attack through it. (Something you might want to be careful of, the player won't be able to move with the shield activated if you can't go some way into the water. Maybe make it so mobs can't go through the air surrounding the outside of the shield.) Activate it by left clicking while holding item id 9. As for a crafting recipe: R=Redstone W=Bucket of Water (Make it only consume the water please.) WWW WRW WWW Well, it looks good so far. This took a while to type. (Man I love designing this plugin :D)
