Inactive [ADMN] MobDrops v2.5 - Change what your ingame mobs drop (now with iConomy support) [1337]

changelog has to be at the end
I would suggest moving those exxamples into a SPOILER tag and putting it after commands

also please add a header to the post
name - description
Version: ...

Thanks, changed.

is there any way we could determine if its killed by a player as opposed to a mob grinder?

Yes, but what functionality would you want involving this?

If i change the drop of a mob, will it still drop it's normal drop?

I have been looking for a Mob Drop mod that works like yours for a while now. Any chance it could have Multiworld?

add iconomy and this would be an amazing plugin just sayin.

don't work
if i'm write /mobdrops Zombie 268 1
Invalid Command. Use "mobdrops help" for help...
and /mobdrops normal Zombie off
no mob of name 'Zombie' found
help ? !!!

Just tried the plugin on my server. Everything was working fine, until I actually used the plugin. Right after I adjusted a Zombie to have a 75% drop of Smooth stone to test it, I started getting server can't keep up messages on the server and My client crashed. Disabled all plugins and loaded up the server and the same thing happened. The moment I connected the Server started having Can not keep up errors and My client crashed.

Removed Mobdrops completely from the server and restored the world from a backup and everything is running fine now. Not sure if its Mobloot by itself or if its having a compatibility issue with other plugins. I am not running any other plugins that modify drop rates at all.

:/ I can't think of anything right off that could cause that. If someone else reports the same thing, I'll investigate more closely.

It's "/mobdrops add Zombie 268 1", remember the "add"

and "/mobdrops normal" can only be used if that mob has a custom drop already... I'll fix that next release.
EDIT: done!

Maybe, when I released this on hey0's mod I got the same suggestion
EDIT: done!

Yes, unless you use /mobdrops normal mobname off

done , it was a lot easier than I thought.

Yeah, id just like to deter people from collecting stuff from a grinder... afking and collecting alot of loot. so is there a way we can just have it drop stuff only if its killed by a player, as opposed to it dropping from drowning?

Updated, you can now use the /mobdrops playeronly <MobName> [on/off] command.

Code:

/mobdrops playeronly skeleton on

nice, I'm impressed :] and thank you you saved me the trouble of getting a plugin i didn't want now people in my server can get money in a stable way without me getting jobs(the plugin i didn't want to get >.>)

but one more thing could you add a range and a chance? like mobdrops money <Mob name> [amount] [chance] ex: /mobdrops money creeper 0.01-1.00 4

Done, the command is

Code:

/mobdrops money creeper 0.01 1.00

well damn i think i love you xDDDD

i just tested it and everything works wonderfully!
thank you so much for making this plugin and adding things i suggested...and i kinda feel bad for asking this but one more thing xD can you have it tell the player when they earned money for killing and how much? like if i killed a spider can it say %monster dropped %amountofmoneygained (where %monster is the monsters variable and %amountofmoneygained is respectably the variable for amount of money you gained for that kill. of course those probably are not the actual variables but you understand right?)

Done, added that and the money chance, the command might be: "/mobdrops moneymessage %m% dropped %a%"

And thanks for all the helpful feedback

thank you once again and i will let you know how things worked :]

also could you give me an example of /mobdrops money with chance added in? i dont know where im supposed to add it.

nvm xD you added that as i was commenting :3

i think there might be a mishap, ex: "mob 'spider' normal dropsn player only drops: on money 0.01-0.06/chance:100%" but it is not 100% dropping.

but the message is working

The money is transferred under the same condition that the message appears... :/

Did you use 100 as the chance or 1000? the chances are out of 1000.

yea i did /mobdrops money creeper 0.01 0.07 1000 and when i kill a creeper i get no money and the message says that i got 0.0, can i not use hundredth place decimals?

Um, you should be able to... But I gtg right now, sorry. I'll look into it tomorrow.

Edit: Fixed since version 2.5.

Please place the data file in its own directory, like other plugins. EG: Mobdrops/MobDrops.data

one suggestion would be config file formatted for each mob type in tables like ex:
Creeper:
normal drop: true/false
Add.drop: item|amountof|%of drop| and maybe a way to have the amount of said item be random between the range
Chicken:
normaldrop: true/false
add.drop: item|amount|%

i only suggest this cause its less repetitive to edit your drop list from a filel ike this and im not sure but this might make multi-world support a little easier if you had the config stored in /plugins/mobdrops/<world> you could load world specific. so far this is the best loot list editor i have found with the best features. thank you for your work.

also a /mobdrop help or help menu when you type just /mobdrop with the syntax layout would be helpful for us burnouts trying to remember all the commands for all the plugins

"/mobdrops help" gives you the commands. I may add "/mobdrop" as an alias...

Also, the config file would be a good idea, and be easier to manage, but it wouldn't be easy for me to make :/

I decided that as it was a single file it wouldn't matter too much, but I guess some people like their stuff more organised. Sorry. I'll make it use either the Mobdrops/MobDrops.data file or the MobDrops.data file, with the former default if neither found.
Edit: it now does this, but you will have to move your data file to /plugins/MobDrops/ for it to use the file in that location.

i must have missed the spacebar or somecrap when i was trying thanks for the info, and as i said before good work.

What's the name of a zombie pigman(/pigman)? I tried zombiepigman, but nothing happens.

zombie_pigman every time you are coding or doing anything that a system reads never put spaces and if you have to than use a _ to replace it, ergo zombie_pigman
