I am still playing with the beta version working out small bugs. It is pretty much done, I just want to make sure I am releasing it in a manner I am happy with.

@Glompalici0us

well, yes, but lets face it... I would have to have default set to false, every idiot would quickly set that to true, which would of course add a shit-ton (technical term) more work for me because they would be complaining about performance. And as the plugin is now, its already a bit of a performance whore (also a technical term).

Sorry about getting all technical, I have had a few (read as many) adult beverages, and am seeing multiple versions of my text on the screen.

But, you get the gist.

@Glompalici0us

Just not posible... to check against logblock for all blocks broken. It will wipe out a server of even moderate size.

But, you actually can do a global check on anything you want, if you do:

/xcheck player:all ore:16 maxrate:40

That will tell you every player who has mined more then 40% (compared to stone) coal.

/xcheck player:all ore:74 maxrate:10

That will tell you every player who has mined more then 10% (compared to stone) redstone.

Now, these are global checks, meaning they will show all players. who meet that criteria. Once you have the global check you can do:

/xcheck player:dickbag ore:74

That will give you the specific stats for that player on redstone.

I think this is what you are looking for. You CAN do this with any ore in the game, the only thing is you would have to have some idea of how much is too much i.e. 3% for diamond, 10% or so for redstone, 40% or so for coal (probably closer to 35% but not sure, find a good average of players who you know play 100% legit).

The third type of check we do is an individual check to get xlevel.

/xcheck player:dickbag

This type of check uses the defaults set in the config file. That is the one where we would have some issues. Because it runs multiple logblock queries if we tried to add every ore, it would smash the server. You would hate me. But it wouldn't be terribly difficult to add a few additional ores... say redstone or coal. But, and there is always a but, I need to be frugal here, I need to consider what Mojang will do with the game. For instance in 1.5 the new quartz block will be released. I am guessing I will be getting a lot of owners requesting we report on that pretty quickly. Make sense?

I hope this helped and gives you the answer you are looking for. Are you really looking to have:

/xcheck player:dickbag

report on every single ore in the game, or are you ok with a global check to find the offenders, and an individual check to get the details on that specific ore?

@Glompalici0us

Possible yes, not sure if there is really a case for it. But I am open to being convinced.

As I see it, most xrayers are going for the valuable ores (diamond, iron, gold, emerald) first. While I agree that they will also xray for coal and redstone, if they are going to bother x-raying, they are going to focus on diamond first for tools and armor. And you should catch them by then. Especially once the new version is released.

But, as I said, I am open to being convinced. So, give me a good case for it, or if there is more support for it, I will add.

@Erudin1

To xray check against every ore is not realistic.
