TownyHerochatLink

Table of Contents

What is it?

This plugin automatically creates a group for each town with the prefix of t: and for nations with the prefix of n:. Then it will add the player or players to the created group. The group has the permissions designated in the config. Then the player is added to the channel. When a town or nation is deleted it removes the group for the town/nation and deletes the corresponding channel. It sets the channel nicknames as the first four letters of the town or nation in all caps, in the event of a duplicate nick it will append numbers on the end starting with 1.

Dependencies:

Towny
Herochat
Vault

Permission Plugins Supported

Due to restrictions on Vault (namely the lack of ability to delete groups) I need to add support for each plugin supported by Vault manually in some areas. Below is a list of plugins currently supported.

zPermissions
Essentials GroupManager
More to come, it's a slow process (if you request a specific permissions plugin in the comments I will put that plugin in priority above the others and release when I have it added)

Commands

/thcrefresh - this command is the command to run on the first load of the plugin. It will search through your towns and make sure that there is a channel for each town and nation (if you have them enabled in the config). ALIAS: /thcr

Permissions

thcl.refresh: allows usage of /thcrefresh

Example of the default config

# set the selection to true to enable creation of a new channel for towns/nations 
createFor:
    towns: true
    nations: true
createIn:
    world: casual_world
# Settings for the channels
# for the format section use <> instead of {} because {} is causing errors
nations:
    color: GOLD
    format: <default>
towns:
    color: AQUA
    format: <default>
    
# permissions to give to players when they join a town or their town joins a nation
# all permissions will have the appropriate channel name appended on the end
# for example if you put herochat.join in the list the player will recieve herochat.join.<channel>
# where <channel> is the nation or town channel (depending on the situation)
permissions:
    - herochat.autojoin
    - herochat.join
    - herochat.leave
    - herochat.speak
    - herochat.focus

Known Bugs

Will display an error on town deletion saying the group and channel does not exist. This is because of the way towny events are run, Be assured this is a minor bug, the group and channel were simply deleted already.
Town names cannot have non-alphanumeric characters in them such as herpderp2.0.

So.. I don't see anywhere to post Tickets... I hate to do this but...
I'm running a Bukkit 1.7.9, with bPermissions and Vault installed on my server.
Hero Chat, and Towny as well.

On Start-up I get this..

When issuing the "load towns" command..

I suppose that would be possible. I can certainly look into it. I've never used either though so if you would do me the kindness to submit a Plugin Request thread (or pm me a request in that format) so I know exactly what you want it to do. Also there seems to be a chat plugin with HeroChat support for simpleclans already (at least according to the page). If you want to check that out first I would try that, it's better to use a more well developed plugin than a brand new one IMO (usually)

I also apologize for my delayed response, I am currently in college and I've been concentrating more on that recently.

Can you make a plugin like this for other team/clan plugins? For instance simpleclans and xTeam.

Yes, hence I had to make this plugin.

@wiedzmin137

As for this, I will look into it as soon as I get a chance. With classes started again I have less time for this than I would like.

Except that doesn't work. The messages go to everybody. Variables show up as {town} literal with modifychat.enabled: 'true' in chatconfig.yml

As I see, I won't use this, sorry. Why? TownyChat plugin has compatibility with HeroChat and give me /nationchat, /townychat and {vaiarbles} for Towny into HeroChat config. But anyway - good job, you have learned new things. If you will continue that project - look at that error.

Or... I won't use HeroChat.

Version 2.0 has GroupManager support, whenever Bukkit approves it please let me know how it works! I haven't tested it but the core stuff works with zPermissions and the differences are handled correctly as far as I know so there should be no problems. Just watch out for towns/nations with non-alphanumeric characters, it tends to not make channels for them because herochat doesn't allow those characters in the channel names, I'm working on a fix but I can't figure out why what I'm trying isn't working so not sure when that will be out.

Sorry for the double post but wanted to update you, I have it working with Vault right now but there are some things I need it to do that Vault can't do (like delete a group). I can accomplish this but it requires I check which permissions plugin you are running and then selecting a certain command from there. This is a simple matter but it is tedious and may take a while. If you tell me what permission plugin you are running I can add support for that first and publish it so you can start using it sooner.

Thanks, Jack

I'm working on getting vault to work right after I finish with the refresh command, which is almost done just working out a few kinks.

The issue with Vault was I needed it to pull a list of all of the current groups and I couldn't get it to do that, and since the server I own and help run uses zPermissions, which is great by the way, I just decided to get it to work with that since I was originally not planning on publishing it.

Basically I'll get the Vault working as soon as I can, however it might take a bit of recoding so it's hard to give an ETA especially when I have classes 4 days a week and have to study, stupid college :P
