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.

I'm doing a pretty big overhaul of the code, which is why it's taking awhile for an update. It's well worth the wait though, I have many, many new features. If you have a pressing issue / feature you'd like to be included in v2.0, please PM me so that I get it added ASAP. I often forget to check tickets, but it e-mails me about PMs. Thanks :)

Doing a stream of some coding (it's sorta boring :P) of this @ http://www.twitch.tv/lyoko_firelyte

Edit: Done for tonight, the video is at http:www.twitch.tv/lyoko_firelyte/b/582709168

Skip to 3:13:00 to hear me get really excited over setting a variable. XD

Don't forget my PMs! :P

Glad to see there being an update though. I know you'd like to do work for Sponge, but updates for Spigot/Bukkit in the mean time are appreciated.

Hi guys, I'm going through tickets and making fixes at the moment, expect a new build within a day. I'm also adding any suggestions I remember - I've been busy so I've not updated this project in awhile.

This script dosen't work as I imagine. I want it to take the item player holding, but in fact it can't. That's a pity. A certain new place holder just like <takeholdingitems> would be much better, I think.

- '@MODIFYPLAYER <playername> HELDITEM:AMOUNT 0‘

In addition, there's not any place holder can check the lore of items in player's backpack. Maybe you can take it into consideration?

I find solution. I simply made MySQL procedure like this

BEGIN UPDATE games SET open=game_open WHERE id=game_id; SELECT "Done" AS title; END

So it send something back to VT and every work perfect :-)

Also, if your script is stopping due to mysql errors I will take a look at it and get a fix, as any errors should be skipped and should go to the next line, so that would be a bug

@H8llfire You can use multiple with certain formatting or you can use the super nesting placeholder for more complex things. As for the bigger ones that require commas, it's not set up to be feasible to include multiple without a lot of headaches

VariableTriggers only Supports one functional Placeholder per line. Very very annoying imo, this has been reported numerous times and declined. Makes some ideas I had impossible to do with VT.

The problem is INSERT. So no. Not until Lyoko_Firelyte makes a build where INSERT doesn't crash things.

I do have a workaround though, if you don't mind the extra work that comes with it. Send me a PM.

@Lyoko_Firelyte I have a problem about <var:>, just look at this script:

- '@SETSTR $obj.var1 a' - '@SETSTR $obj.var2 b' - '@PLAYER <var:$obj.var1>,<var:$obj.var2>'

I run the script, and see "a,<var:$obj.var2>". Why can't it be "a,b"? It really confuses me, and brings me lots of trouble. I have done some tests. I found that any place holder after a comma doesn't work, unless they're separated by a space (must be a SPACE, or it won't work, either).

1) It saves data to DB but it interrupts script at the same time. So all commands below do not run.

2) Is there a way to change something in my example to make it work without error?

- '@MYSQL @DB.array insert into games (name) values("test");'

VT errors out because it doesn't understand that it won't get any info back to put in VarData when you do an INSERT.

I've already logged this bug with Lyoko_Firelyte.

If you know that it works, feel free to ignore.

This command:

- '@MYSQL @DB.array insert into games (name) values("test");'

gives my error:

after it stops script BUT data is inserted to DB. So it looks like it works but scripts stopped. What I do wrong?

Also if a do this command - no error:

- '@MYSQL @DB.array SELECT * FROM games;'

I don't know, it depends how different their API will be. For now you can download Carbon (a plugin for Spigot) as well as Spigot to enjoy 1.8 features that work with most plugins just fine, and they have the 1.8 items thanks to Carbon as well. However if you're a developer and use threads a lot, Spigot will bite you in the ass with it's Async catcher, but that's another story.

Will VariableTriggers be ported to Sponge? I know this would probably be a shit ton of work.

Also, the @WHILE loop seems to be bugged. I used @WHILE b <takeitem:bla:bla:bla> = true, and it always took the given item twice, executing the takeitem placeholder too many times.

Or...

@MODIFYPLAYER <player> WALKSPEED <amount>

No others plugins are involved, no output, easy to use.
