[INACTIVE][TP] Nether v1.2 (2.0 in progress) - Super-Simple Nether Portals [1000]

@Dangirdas Could you post the specific error?

I tried out this plugin - The only issues I've found is that soul sand doesn't work in Earth (Bukkit Bug I guess) and that Ghasts can be heard around and close to spawn, and it seems that they even shoot at players in Earth, but hit objects in Nether, can anyone confirm this ? - We have heard booms and ghast screams around and in the general area around spawn. and it would also seem that Spawn protection (None block placement or removal) also makes that area in Nether protected.

So:

Soul Sand has no effect in Earth
Ghasts can be heard in Earth mode, in my case around and near spawn.
Spawn Protection is enforced in Nether

Also seems like it disables monster spawning in Earth realm, pigs and others do spawn hower, just not hostile. Was broken with a Bukkit release

Try the unofficial together with the newest recommended bukkit and you should have no issues. If you still get the problem you can try and post the errors here - Could be colliding with other plugins as well.

Could you update it for the latest build 617? on 617 you can olny telle port once each way to nether back and than they do not work anymore and i do not get any error's.

Have you tried my last unofficial build? I've tested it in 617 and didn't notice any problems like that.
SpaceManiac does appear to be working on an update for his official release, though.

This works fine for me in 617, the only issue I'm having is with the spawn points. Since 1.4 came out and we can reset our spawn points using beds, every time you go into the nether it changes your spawn point back to the default one.
Is there any way to update this to send you back to your saved spawn when you die?

It doesn't matter if you die in the nether, or if you die on earth, as soon as you go into the nether, your spawn breaks. I can go in, come back out, and die on earth, and I'll go back to the original spawn.

brettflans 1.3.2 is working on CB670 though I have this issue too:

update plz? =)

I'll look into it today.
EDIT: by the way, for clarification, is it resetting your spawn point or is it just that deaths in the nether world respawn you at the default spawn on the first world? I expect it's the latter, based on the code. Again though, I'll look into it.

We seem to have a problem with not being able to see Ghast's fireballs. Anyway to fix this?

I respawn at my worlds normal respawn point that I set, so its like before 1.4 and just ignoring the bed =)

Not currently. That's a problem on Bukkit's side, unfortunately, and likely related to problems with invisible ghasts and/or unkillable slimes.

Actually, the invisible Ghast fireballs are from Mojang's original code. At least in 1.3 for sure, because I tested the official server with it set in server.properties to use a Nether world, and it had the invisible fireballs and the Ghasts also not showing the spitting animation to go with it. Since it's still broken in CraftBukkit, I assume the 1.4 official server still has the problem as well.

OK, I looked into it. There's currently no good way I know of to check and see if the player has a special respawn location set or not, and Bukkit still respawns players in the world they die in by default. So... not sure offhand what the best way to handle it is and I don't have time to work on it further at the moment.

Is there a way to set the Monsters in the Hell to "false"?
In my server.properties:
"spwan-monsters: false". In the normal world: It runs!
In the Hell are Monsters: Sooo many Ghast's.
What can I do to have no monsters in the Hell?

Same issue here on cb670.

You should be able to use another plugin like CrowdControl or EssentialsProtect to prevent specific mob types from spawning.

Have you tried my last unofficial build 1.3.2 linked above in response to that post? It should be working.

I'm running b670 with nether 1.3.2 and no matter what I do, I can't get the chunk with a portal in it to load after a jump. I've tried all of the nether plugins (I liked this one the most) but no matter what I do, it won't load properly. Any ideas?

@Brettflan
I havent done any bukkit developing yet, but are you able to use "org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerRespawnEvent.getRespawnLocation()" to get the location of the bed BEFORE they enter the nether? if so, why not just cache it and in case they die or leave the nether just reset the respawn location to that value you cached earlier using "org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerRespawnEvent.setRespawnLocation (Location respawnLocation)" and respawn them afterwards.
As I said I havent done any bukkit development yet myself so I cant tell if getRespawnLocation() actually works that way or if it'll just give you the normal spawn, but this might be an idea.

Other idea:
I dont really know but I think the plugin respawns the player into the normal world, right? Like its not the default bukkit behaviour. If so, would respawning at beds work if you disable that component? If so: give an option to disable it

Other idea if getRespawnLocation does work indeed and if the plugin does the respawning and if respawning at bed works with the plugins respawn feature disabled: Just check for "getRespawnLocation()" != default spawn and if its true just disable the spawning of the plugin

Hope any of this helps you, for now I cant do anything else as I dont had the time to do any bukkit developing yet

Oh and what happened you @SpaceManiac? You wrote like ages ago you would compile a new version using the input of Arcu and Brettflan

This plugin does not seem to work on 670. It says You feel the pull of nether energies, and thats it, you dont get ported.

works for me.

@Dreadreaver You can only use the getRespawnLocation() function when it's attached to a PlayerRespawnEvent. Until you have an event fire which passes a PlayerRespawnEvent (which only happens when a player respawns), you can't use it.
The default behavior with Bukkit is to respawn you in the world you die in. I'm not certain where it gets the location within that world from, though. It bears looking into, but... lately my free time is very limited.

Unofficial 1.3.2 is working fine for me in 670 as well. @Xandrake - Did you change the settings in the plugin's config.yml, and if so, what settings do you have in there?

@Brettflan
Newest CB673 changelog is:
"Made fauxSleeping persist on death and cross-world teleport. (commit: 55e3e267880febaabbde243e557b4dbcb5fa9924) (detail / githubweb)"
Whats fauxSleeping? Persist on death and cross-world teleport indicate that this could fix our problem.

I just updated to CB673 but the problem remains ...

It seems to be working fine now thanks, it was a issue with my custom compile of bukkit.

All right, another unofficial:
http://wimbli.com/minecraft/Nether_1.3.3_unofficial.zip

Changelist:

• Added "spawn-fix" config option; can be used to disable the feature which makes players respawn in a non-nether world
• Added code to ensure safe running of "players in portals" check; no direct problem found in this plugin, but a very similar method in another plugin had problems

@Dreadreaver from what I can tell, fauxSleeping is pretty much what the name indicates, a way to make the server see the player as being in a bed when they might not be. Probably for AFK scripts and similar. So, nothing to do with this.
I added the "spawn-fix" option for you to test disabling that feature, so you can see if it works better for you.

alright. fauxSleeping .. lol I probably was too tired to understand the meaning behind the word

anyway, thx for 1.3.3, gonna start testing =)

when I die in the nether I'll respawn in the nether - doesnt matter if you got your bed set or not.
havent tested dying in the real world AFTER going through the nether yet though

I have actually had Acru's code merged on Github for a while, but I've been too busy to put up an actual build until now:

https://github.com/downloads/SpaceManiac/Nether/Nether.jar

If you're currently using Brettflan's build, keep doing so; if you're still on 1.1, upgrade.

Eyh SpaceManiac, thx for the update ! I got one (stupid) question. if i use the new version, do i need to rebuild my portals? Or all the information of portalS / netherworld that i have in 1.1 will be saved ?

And does it work with CB677?

Bug: Placed lava in the normal world is flowing like lava in the nether. Much further than 3 blocks.

@Kuun Yep. If I recall correctly, Brettflan's build changes portal placement a bit, but 1.2 portals and 1.1 portals should hook up just fine.

@Someone3x7 Sounds like a Bukkit bug, but I'll take a look when I can.
