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

SignLift - Elevators with signs:
Version: v1.22

Based on CraftBook's elevator system, SignLift works very much the same way - with two small improvements:

1. Before transporting you it checks to make sure that you won't warp into a wall
2. Prevents accidental block placement on transport

Create signs on top of each other with [Lift up]/[Lift down]/[Lift] on the second line to use.

Create signs on top of each other with {Lift up}/{Lift down}/{Lift} on the second line to create a private lift

Example:
Create a sign on ground level with the second line set to [Lift Down]
Dig down under that sign (place a block in the top of the hole)
Create a sign with the second line set to [Lift Up]

Right click the sign to use



Features:

• Customizable strings
• Safety checks to prevent into wall "lifting"
• Brick placement prevention
• First line can be the floor name
• Hide signs on the back of blocks and use buttons!
• Private lifts
• Permissions

SignLift has no support whatsoever for permissions. It has no permissions nodes. It doesn't even contain the string "permission"

 

Can't wait for this to be updated
but take your time.. you're the one doing us a favor by providing this mod!

 

Keeping an eye on your thread. Just started a server this week, and wow, this could be useful. Thanks for the work! Was happy to see how simple it looked. Great job! Especially like the button idea.

Take your time updating it. Better job that way, and I can SO understand needing time to do the things you want to do (vs the things you NEED to do.)

 

This goes on my watchlist =) our brand new server could use this one!

It looks very nice.

 

Love the plugin. Good luck with the update; I'll be waiting!

 

I downloaded this. Like this a lot because I can use it for my "office buildings" for floor by floor stops rather than typing commands. THE ONLY thing I noticed is that while you right click while holding a sign, cause the game to (sometimes, not all the time) go into the menu where you type what you want for a sign, and when you click done without typing anything it exits and does not place a sign anywhere. Not sure if it was just my close location to other signs or not but I thought I would report it just in case.

 

Can you make for the 1.5 version ?

 

16 days later......

 

CB 670 - inactive

 

Oh noes!

 

I can confirm that SignLift 0.7 is working with latest CB 766. If like me you were gettting a permission denied (You don't have permission to create a Elevator Sign) you most likely have Permission and MinecartMania installed. For some reasons, MinecartMania conflicts with SignLift so just add permission node 'minecartmania.signs.*' and SignLift will work again!

 

Does minecartmania use the word "lift" perhaps?
I've updated the subject thread subject to reflect that the plugin has been tested with the latest RB and works now how do I get it out of inactive...

 

I haven't found anything in the Minecartmania Wiki that relates to [lift] but it does have a Elevator sign that uses the word Elevator as trigger but not lift (maybe lift is an alias for elevator and it's not documented?).

 

This error sometimes pops up: http://pastie.org/1927158

 

Don't suppose you can tell me how you achieve that?

 

Hmm just got them spammed right now. I can't reproduce them, as they are being caused by natural use by players, I can only try and ask "who's messing with lifts" when I see the errors, but that just doesn't work well

I was making a [command] sign, and the errors started spamming, so that's likely the issue, your plugin is triggering on any sign with [text], or so...

okey, I'll have a look - it gives me somewhere to look

 

ok.... I have no idea how you're beaking it.

The exception it's throwing is from line 42 of SignLiftPlayerListener. There's no-way it should even get to line 42 if there's a null block.

Line 42

Code:

block = block.getFace((new Button(block.getType(), block.getData())).getAttachedFace(), 2);

So what this code does is gets the face that of the block that a button is attached to, then gets the block on the opposite side of that block from the button.

Has nothing to do with what's on a sign, before even reaching line 42 there are 2 if statements that should bawk that check to make sure a block is attached to the event and that the block is a stone button

Try this version Joy

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/46756/Bukkit/SignLift/SignLift.0.7.a.jar - I added a check to see if getAttachedFace returns null

I'm still waiting for permissions to be implemented xD You should try to do that. It would be very helpful.

 

Probably not happening

 

But why though :l? It shouldn't be too hard to do if you already have knowledge of coding plugins :l.

 

it's worked. Thank u

 

Please update to 818. Thank you.

 

Did you even stop to try it yourself to see if it worked?

(for the record, it works fine)

 

Working fine with 953.

 

Fine with 953

 

I give to you an update that introduces private lifts.
There's no protection for the lift or the block it's on just yet (hey, it's bed time) but it should work nicely
The private lift feature is NOT enabled by default.

 

I know ive seen this asked b4, but i havent seen a response to the question.

Why arent you adding permissions nodes?
I would like to be able to restrict access of making lift signs to my mods only.

 

Bukkit has no built in permissions, and when there's a major update that breaks the xN permissions plugins that breaks the plugins that rely on them - so I don't do permissions (yet)

Besides, signlifts add no load to the server unless actually used - worst thing you have to worry about is a few extra signs getting thrown up

Plugin updated to 0.9 - Now has support for permissions (I told you I'd support permissions when bukkit did)

is this plugin backwards compatible ? To 953? Im using a modded craftbukkit file with krnlyng's modloadermp mod, to be able to use industrial craft and WW2 guns in my server, but when i've placed a sign, it dosnt seem to care less what im doing..
I can smack the button as hard as i want to with right click, not a darn thing happens.. The button pushes in, and zilch....
