[MECH] PumpkinDiver [v0.16] [400-1240]

i love you man xD

Woo! Go Afforess! Unfortunately I would like a may to limit this so people don't have access right from the start.

QQ I was going to do something like this.

Much needed, its a bitch hunting squid as they like to be in really deep water.

When Bukkit comes out with their own permissions, I'll be sure to add that in.

Awesome thanks!

Updated to to v0.11

Changelog on OP.

Awesome idea! I will be sure to test it out.

It would be awesome to add a durability, or make the 100% air only one time, as in it doesn't refill when you go out of the water. It's a bit too op atm But great job!

Durability, Or anything else would be impossible because you could just stick the pumpkin back into a stack of pumpkins, and I'd have no way of keeping the data straight.

I realize it's a tad op, but doing anything underwater takes bloody forever, and the pumpkin obscures your vision.

Pumpkin Diver... been down too long in the midnight sea...

Neat idea

Wow I can't see crap when underwater with a pumpkin on. Still easier than having to go up every other second!

The pumpkin helmet visibility is actually a texture, so a texture pack could alter it to look like a real diving helmet.

Just an update, this plugin should work fine with the new multiworld update. The thread title doesn't lie, 210+.

@Afforess
You sir are one of the few people I can honestly say actually deserves your Wizard avatar.

Neat! can we have the sourcecode? or at least a way to set the block that has the diver effect? (we use the hat mod on our server and would love to have this effect on the glass block)

Not at a computer ATM, but I can publish the source on github in 3 hours or so.

Added the source code to the OP.

Thanks! I try.

Awesome! I was hoping someone was going to do this

It seems that if a player tried to chat after their initial air is used up they get booted and I see this on the console:

EDIT: I am running CraftBukkit: 262

Code:

That's not a bug with this plugin.

And chat works fine underwater, even with air used up.

I'm really liking this so far. Was hoping for a way to swim underwater longer for awhile now. I'm curious though, when I press F5 the pumpkin head is facing the wrong way it seems.

I'm glad you like it. How the game renders things is up to the client - blame Notch.

Updated to version 0.12, fixing a rare null pointer exception when players are teleported between worlds.

Awesome This is going to make pumpkins/underwater exploration a lot more loved now ^^

If you want to make it easier to see with the pumpkin helmet on, you can replace the file minecraft.jar/misc/pumpkinblur.png with a transparent PNG image of the same proportions. I made such an image (see attached) - it's transparent so you can't see it:

(begin image)--><--(end image)

Note that if you do this to your minecraft.jar, it may be necessary to delete the META-INF folder in the jar in order for this mod to not break things. Not sure, mine doesn't have that folder since I'm running Misa's HD texture overhaul. ^_^

Added custom pumpkin skin to the OP, as well as a guide to installing it.

If you get Dante80's HD Albion texture pack, you get a Halo style HUD when wearing the pumpkin.

Thanks for the plugin - squid are kind of elusive on my server, perhaps this will help find the blighters!

One idea...

How about have the bubble meter go down, then when it reaches zero you get the "90%" message, and now the system's internal air meter gets resets back to a full meter. The next time the GUI depletes, you get the 80% message, and so on. That way the bubble progress meter still indicates the speed of depletion between 10% jumps.

just had to say I was wishing for this plugin an hour ago while squid hunting. Ended up standing in a random door on the bottom of a lake for 10 minutes with no luck. Thanks for this.

The bubble meter is all client side, and notch hardcoded it. I can't change it at all, not even reset it.

That's why I had to create my own alerts.

Awesome, Afforess. Our rebreather plugin expired with hmod, now we don't have to bring it back!

Embedded here is a Dive Helmet texture I am working on for our server's pack -- It provides a different take on things with a less interrupted field of view than Glimmar's.



As a note for those that are installing a Mod like this for the first time: You can use a 512x512 pumpkinblur.png file even without installing a "HD" texture pack! Very cool.
