Inactive [MECH] SignLift v1.22 - Elevators with signs [1.2.5 R1.0] (Permissions)

I'll look at that tomorrow - not sure there's much I can do about that without switching out of the built in config management, might have to check with the bukkit devs.

@freman

Color Plugin seams to have a issue with this one. If I place a sign you can see the text kind of shift a bit and make placing new signs impossible to function in an elevator.

My fault. They work in perfect harmony now

Thanks good sir. I love both plugins and would hate to pick and choose hehe

hehe, best kind of bugs, the ones that aren't mine

Ok.

I've managed to get it to accept your "Special Characters" (not my words hehe)

What you need to do is save the file as utf-8, the way I achieved this was to

1. open up config.yml in notepad++
2. remove all the special characters from the file,
3. save the file
4. go to the Encoding menu
5. select Encode in UTF-8 without BOM
6. re-add any special characters, including any color codes using §
7. save

(on second thought I probably could have used Encoding/Convert to UTF-8 without BOM, then saved)

This file should be properly read by the plugin.

Your original file was ANSI. Ok I'm testing.

Your post is too detailed
"save as UTF8 -BOM" had been sufficient

Edit:
It works (Colors and ÄÖÜ), much thanks!

Edit2:
: isn't working, console Error: "mapping values are not allowed here!......"

with : you might need to wrap ' and ' around your string

Error and not loading.

Code:

2011-02-19 21:04:55 [WARNING] Using the stupidly long constructor com.bukkit.freman.SignLift.SignLift(PluginLoader, Server, PluginDescriptionFile, File, File, ClassLoader) is no longer recommended. Go nag the plugin author of SignLift to remove it! (Nothing is broken, we just like to keep code clean.)

That's only a warning - shouldn't stop it from loading... I'll look into it (this place needs a dev news feed or rss feed or something)

its not just your plugin none of my plugin's work.

Can you please check your plugin against some of the newer builds? The server I play on has checked his arrangement on a few and none of them let this your plugin work

I was using it on Saturdays build... I haven't tried a build since Sunday - had other things to do. I will look at it tonight hopefully

Awesome, this plugin is really good for creative or economy servers.

Updated

very easy elevator system, I like it

Can you add Groupmanager/Permission support so users are limited to which signs they can access? Maybe different sign labels can be used by different groups or something.

I don't think so, no.
If I added any form of permissions it would be to restrict who can create sign lifts, and who can use them (globally)
It would not be very practical to restrict who could and couldn't use sign lifts outside of the person that created the sign (which I could do quite easily by appending their name to the last line)

If you restrict to user how about doing something similar to MyHome and letting them decide who else gets to use it? or allow admin to set up an allowed name list?

this isn't MyHome, it has no database, no text file of co-ordinates - and I have no intention of making it so.

alright :/

First of all, I really like the plugin doing its job quite well.
But I have to say you need to update it again :/

Edit: The error might be that onplayer-commands changed somehow, I haven't looked in any *.jars yet but I read that on other plugin sites.

Nope, plugin has no call for on player commands - this error is saying "java.lang.NoSuchMethodException" so either my plugin is calling something that doesn't exist... or bukkit is calling something in my plugin that doesn't exist - either way I'll look on the weekend

The Plugin is super awesome, so good for using in scafolding, for when your building.

Btw, can you link me to the plugin that gives you the map on your screen? (mini-map)

Thanks

Seems to be working fine here, build 495 - try re-downloading perhaps you got a corrupt jar?

It's in my sig...

I just downloaded this plugin.. and I can't get it to work..
Any other plugin I download from here have been working flawlessly, But this one dosnt do anything at all..

--Edit--
Never mind, I got it to work.. I had to use Capital letters in the command on the sign, like this: [LIFT UP]

When I typed [Lift up] or [Lift Up] it did not work..

on the second line?

Could this work with pressure plates?

Thought about that... There's the problem of landing on the plate at the other sign after being lifted

Ah true... I didn't think of that, unless it was made for going to the very bottom/top floors?

I've got a problem...
Lifts dont work properly.
I dont know how to describe it..
they only work at certain positions on the block you stand...approximately at edges

thnx
