[INACTIVE][MECH]BukkitPiston v0.54 - Pistons plugin for SMP [860]

BukkitPiston - Piston plugin for SMP:

Since I don't have the time to continue developing, I've decided to release the source code.
Hopefully someone can create a new mod out of it.

Source


Version: v0.54

This mod changes iron blocks (by default) into pistons, which extend, when powered with redstone or redstone torches.
Much like the original piston mod by Hippoplatimus. Right click on a face to change the orientation.
Power it with redstone to make it push max. 16 blocks. (obisidan, iron and bedrock won't be pushed!)
It is possible to change the piston properties like strength or block type. Take a look at the config.ini in the plugin/BukkitPiston folder.
If you get an error like ebean.properties not found, create an empty file named "ebean.properties" in the bukkit main folder
