StreetLights

Table of Contents

Please update from 1.1.x! The /sl remove command isn't save! It allows you to remove other peopel's streetlights. It's fixed in 1.1.2

General

Always wanted to get working streetlights in your server? Now you can! Pick the lights you want to light up at night and presto! They will light up when it rains or when it's night.

By default the blocks will be Redstonelamp (offstate) at day and Redstonelamp (onstate) at night. The time they will be on is from 13000 till 0. These can all be changed in the config.yml (Version 1.0.2) To add multiple set of items to switch from just add a new line with two materials. (Please note that you shoudln't use duplicate materials)

Installation

Pretty straight forward here: Place the jar file in your plugin directory and you're good to go.
OP's have all permissions by default but if you want players to control the lights as well please give them permissions:

streetlights.* (Everything EXCEPT: streetlights.admin)
streetlights.admin (Allows the removal of other's streetlights)
streetlights.create (Allows to create new streetlights)
streetlights.remove (Allows to remove new streetlights)
streetlights.save (Allows user to save the list with lights)
streetlights.list (Allows user to view coordinate list of lights)
streetlights.clear (Allows user to clear all the lights)
streetlights.reload (Allows user to reload the config file)
streetlights.info (Displays info about the clicked streetlight)

How to use

Create a Redstone lamp and use "/sl create" command. Then rightclick the blocks you want to light up at night (Redstone Lamps by default). When you're finished adding the lamps type "/sl create" again. If you wish to manualy save you can use "/sl save". (The list will automaticly save after every placed or removed streetlight). You "/sl remove" to remove streetlights from the list :)

Bugs

- Natural rain sometime doesn't trigger the lights.
- You cannot use REDSTONE_TORCH_OFF.

Can we see it in action?

I've created this timelaps on my server which shows the streetlights going on and off.

This is so much buggy! I had to set it up many times to make it working! Now, i have like 5 streetlights at my server, but some still keep somehow disappearing from the list. Also, the /sl update command simply doesn't work...

The commands currently are "/sl edit start" and "/sl edit stop" that's why you are getting an error ;)

iSafe is the thing that tells you what command is being executed.

thijsd since you have some coding experience, if you fixed the bug with streetlight maybe you could find a way to open Irondoors with an item? Or some other way to open them without redstone need. Looks crappy to have the floor full of redston circuits, all addons that do this are inactive by now.

or are you already working on something?

Didn't know it gave you so much errors :O Please PM them to me so i can fix them ASAP ;)

@Vauff

You should be able to just change GLOWSTONE in your config file to something else. About the particles I'm not really sure but ill try to look in to it for version 1.1 ;)

I just came to think about something can bukkit plugins turn off particles on certain items? If so for torches you could have the particles taken off and remove the light it gives off. For redstone torches just a simple on and off. Is it possible to set the streetlights from doing off redstone lamp to on redstone lamp instead of glowstone? Not sure if this in config.

You can only select blocks that are in your Config.yml (it gets created when you start the plugin for the first time :))

1.0.6 seems to only work with Redstone Lamps ( http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Redstone_Lamp ) I seem to remember a previous version that had support for Glowstone.

Hi,
Could anyone help me? I've typed /sl edit start and right clicked a few glowstones, then set it to night, then set it to day and they don't go 'off'. Do I have to use redstone lamps?

For turning off and on complex machines i use light detector http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/lightdetector/ . For decorative night time lighting that i do not want a crap load of redstone rigging being out in the open i use StreetLights.

Okay /sl on and /sl off works. But it when I use /sl on the light from my friend goes also on. So every player must have an own list of redstone lamps. If not the command is useless.

Bugs:

StreetLight is off when placed/created at night
StreetLight is added to list when klicked on and still is in list

Requests:

Add a "/sl remove" command to remove StreetLight-Ability from klicked object
Seperate between User and Admin Commands User:"/sl COMMAND" Admin:"/sl admin COMMAND"
Admin should be able to edit all StreetLights. Users should be able to edit their own StreetLights only.
Add a /sl info" command to gain information about klicked object if it is a StreetLight and if it is, who is the owner/who can edit is, and when placed/last edited
Add Names to StreetLights to identify.
Add further light sources e.g: torch, redstone-torch, fire emited by block if no regular light-source

@thijsd I think he means a second option so...that all redstonelamps turn on in the night and all torches turn off in the day. At the moment you can only change all of one block kind to another block kind.

For the bug light not always going on and off might just be because when chunk is unloaded stuff just happens. if u do redstone you can get a similar glitch. i have a redstone lamp roof with redstone ontome. and a clock attacked to it. half the redstone will be on while the other half wont be.

What do you mean by torch support? If you want to set redstone torches instead of lamps, you can change it in the config :)

Edit: juist came to think of it that that indeed won't work :P Will do it in a feature update ^^

Zip up the current jar and streetlights directory as a back up. Download 1.0.6 (I tested it before Thijsd released it) and overwrite 1.0.5 if it does not work to your satisfaction delete 1.0.6 and streetlights folder then unzip 1.0.5 and its folder.

I as mentioned I tested 1.0.6 before it came out. I have about 25 plugins installed. So far 1.0.6 has passed all my tests and I have yet to have an error on my bukkit console.
