VariableTriggers

Table of Contents

VTV2

Make your own plugin like features and more using VariableTriggers

This is a very powerful plugin that has unlimited potential. Create triggers that run lines of script when a player Clicks or Walks on a block (dirt, door, switch, trigger, torch, any block) or Create Event Triggers such as PlayerDeath , EntityDeath, BlockBreak, BlockPlaced, Join, Quit, Respawn, Interact and EntitySpawn that also run scripts. You can define Area Triggers and Command Triggers as well. You can use Dynamic Object variables and conditional IF and ELSE statements in the scripts. You can run any command that a player or OP can run and many speacial built-in commands to Teleport, Spawn Entities, Play Effects Visual or Sound, Set Blocks, Toggle Blocks, Check Players Heath and much more!. The scripts are executed on their own threads to take the strain off of the main server thread.

BTW, again I have to say what an absolutly excellent plug this is. As complex as it is and at what level it can modify the game i am constantly suprised with how flexible it is. I have this plug so interwoven with my denizens quests im not sure where one starts and the other stops. And absolutly no conflicts or errors at all. The only problems i have had are user error. I will definatly be donating in the near future. Thanks again Lex for such an awesome job.

ps i need this plug for real life.

Can you tell me what the format is for data values of items with modified tags? For Example a stick with the name "thumper" is not recognized as value: 280. maybe this isnt even possible, but i sure thought it was.

@skech1080

- '@IF si <cmdarg:1> = player' - '@AND si <cmdarg:2> = skech1080' - ' @CMDCON kick <playername> you cannot disguise as <cmdarg:2>' - '@ENDIF'

You can also just flatout block it.

How would I go about doing a VTcommand trigger using spaces? I want to kick players when they execute /disguise player skech1080.

I just implemented this plugin on my server and I must say it's winning pretty darn hard. Thanks Lex for making this. I'm planning to donate soon :)

@lexlaiden

I get console messages by using <getarea:somethinghere> saying the triggering player's Y coordinates. Not sure why, however, since it always happens with that check.

@John__B

Not sure what your asking. VT does not display consol messages unles you script it to or there is an error in your script.

So what are you talking about?

Is it possible to override what players saying?
It's like trying to do censorship plugin with variable triggers.

Whenever you are going to edit trigger.yml files you should always first toggle the autosave off

/vt autosave

then edit or upload your file. After file is uploaded do /vt reloadtriggers

Now turn autosave back on /vt autosave

I've not had a problem with this. Try deleting the old file with filezilla and then uploading the new one. In game, type /vt reloadtriggers and then /vt savetriggers to force-save the new content. You can also do /vt reloadscripts if you added any new scripts. If the script you made in the new file is incorrect (such as you have not put spaces before each line, or you made an invalid argument) it will just revert to the old one or not do anything at all.

Random question that I've been curious about for a while. Why does the <getarea:arg> send the player's Y coordinate to the console/log?

@joshwenke

@DavyJonez85

Instead of editing the CommandTriggers or AreaTriggers, etc. files, make a somename.script.yml and edit that one. Those get reloaded every time when you use /vt reloadscripts.

@S1lverK3y

Regarding FPT, I've noticed in general (for filezilla at least) that it doesn't update/show new folders/files until you completely close it and reopen it. As for editing the files, the above has worked for me for long while.

Random question, since I had the same problem, what does your startup script look like?

I have only worked with files because it's just way easier.

And reloading them also works fine.

Make sure you add it correct in the config.

- '@IF b $testing.config = true' - ' @PLAYER Test' - '@ELSE' - ' @PLAYER Test false' - '@ENDIF'

If you don't add the ' ' and the - it won't work for sure.

You must be doing something wrong i think because it's working fine for me :p

@DavyJonez85 got same issues. File editing per FTP/File or whatever isn't possible (yet). You have to type eg /vtareaedit <areaname> <enter/exit> <numberofline> <script>. Only way for now i think.

Absolutely GREAT!!! Thanks for the work! I have only one question: I like to edit the files directly, becuase it's much easier for me. But everytime I reload, they get back to the old content. Isn't it possible to edit them without stopping the server?
