Inactive [SEC/MECH/ECON] Residence v2.4.2 - Self serve area protection system! Buy/Sell Land! Economy! [1185]

MOVED TO DEV BUKKIT:​

​

​

News​

v2.4.2 Released - 9/24/2011​

See the change log for details.​

​

Everyone using PermissionsEx, Essentials, or anything else besides the regular permissions plugin or PermissionsBukkit should add or change this in their config under the Global section:​

LegacyPermissions: true​

​

As of 2.4.0 the bPermissions plugin is supported directly.​

As of 2.3.7 the PermissionsBukkit plugin is supported directly.​

This support is not done through the new built in Permissions that bukkit provides, because there is no way to get a players group using the built in methods. However, by supporting this directly, you can now use the new permissions system while still keeping Residence, and not having to use old permissions at all anymore.​

About:​

Residence is different from most protection plugins in that it aims for the users to be able to protect their own homes without having to bother the admin to do it. Residence has support for a variety of different protection types including preventing movement through areas, all of which can be configured by the land owner, and limited by the admin.​

​

Features:

• Added /resload command to load the save file after you make changes to it (UNSAFE, as it does not save residences first, and so you may loose new residences that were just created)
  

v2.2

• Added per residence Blacklist/Ignorelists that will allow you to specify certain block types to be ignored from residence protections, or unable to be placed in residences.
  
• Added Server owned land, use /resadmin server <residence> to change the owner to "Server Owned"

• Added a LeaseAutoRenew config option, that will cause leases to automatically renew so long as the player has the money to do so. Note that, if economy is disabled this doesn't work, as there would be no point to leases. Needs Testing!
  
• Global FlagPermission config section, that allows you to give permission to use a flag to all groups, useful for the build / move / use flag that you almost definitely want everyone to have access to. Flags under each individual group will overrule these.
  
• You can now set a limits on how deep or how high protections can go into the group, using each groups MinHeight and MaxHeight settings.
  
• /res select sky, and /res select bedrock commands, these auto adjust to the above mentioned MinHeight and MaxHeight settings, so it won't select into a area you can't protect.
  
• Rent system implemented.

Bug Reports:
Please include at minimum the following information with all bug reports:

• CraftBukkit Version
  
• Residence Version
  
• What you were doing when the error occurred.
  

If available, also include:

• Any server console error messages
  
• Other plugins that may be causing the issue
  

 

After I posted that, I also posted that I had tried it with someone else, also part of the Member group. She got same problem, no errors, no messages. I still had the res I had created successfully (as both an admin and an OP) so I added her to the res with flags for use, build and destroy. She could destroy, but not build. Again, no errors, and when I had both users do /res limits they came up as part of the default group, 0 or false for just about every limit. Note I have no default group, the default group is Guest.

That's all I got (repeating it only because I was asked, please don't warn me.)

 

/resreload - reload the Residence plugin (reloads the config as well). sounds like it does what you want.
and the most common fix is to rename the jars like you've done.
you could also try the depend: [iConomy] in the plugin.yml of residence or load: startup in the permissions and iConomy plugin.yml's if you don't like renaming files. if that was directed at the author, my bad.

permissions and the config look fine from a quick glance over. have you defined all groups in your config (doesn't look like there's an admin defined) and what version of Bukkit are you using? #818, #860 or #928?
EDIT: i too don't have a Default group, so that doesn't seem to be an issue.
although i don't have the adminops flag set to true

 

Yeah, I think the code is failing somehow as the rate of monster spawn is very low (single creepers, maybe 2 skellies) and it also does not happen every night. It is clearly working to a very small degree, but not enough to keep all monsters from spawning. I have completely removed the plugin and the YMLs several times and reset up the residences - no joy.

 

Hi.
Any way how to make area or residence boundary visible (maybe just for owner would be enough)? It is very impractical and annoying not to see where my residence ends when building something in there...
Thanks.

 

You can figure out where it ends easily by clicking on blocks with the info tool. It isn't just for finding out info on a residence, you can click on a block in a line until it stops telling you it is inside the residence. Then you know where it ends. That is how we tested the flags; we found the boundary with the info tool and then tested inside and out.

 

YOUR = BELONGING TO YOU.
YOU'RE = CONTRACTION OF 'YOU ARE'.

 

i have a huge problem: for some reasons my residence deactivated theirself. having a look to the res.yml, it shows me an almost empty file, with a bit of not working entries:

this happened to me twice.
each time i edit and save the crap file to a proper one, it turns itself to the crap status and the residences will not be properly reloaded.

can you help me, please?

 

A grammar lesson written in all caps... I-ron-y.

@bekvon In the latest versions of Residence, it still shows me as a Residence Admin, but I (nor any other ops on the server) can't seem to ignore max size limits or max amounts of res's. Is there something I'm missing here, or is this a bug?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I bet you're using Servercraft.co. Are you?

 

I can't even see who it's actually directed at either...

 

I wanted to say the same thing... I looked through the page and didn't see your or you're any where here.

 

You grabbed the latest dev build? All commands in the latest dev build require /resadmin to run as admin. Otherwise they run as normal user (even if your a residence admin).

Good idea about the tool Il add that to the todo. As for the extra owners, currently there is only one owner of a residence, however you can allow other people to change flags on the Residence by giving them the +admin flag. This allows them to add / change flags on other players for that residence. There is also a way to copy flags using the /res mirror command. You need to be owner of both residences or a residence admin to do it though.

Hmm, this is strange how its only slightly working, wonder if theres a bug in the bukkit event somewhere. Il try to find out.

 

​

its (or lets say was, i switched to a host with ftp management) actually multiplay.co.uk.
are these managed panel hoster famous for killing my residences?
i dont have any chance to fill in my old working file, even on the new host.

and i cant run the server without the security of resicence.
i enjoyed using residence, but being unable to load an old state makes me wondering to use another area protection

 

Took awhile but i got this to work for me. I just had one question now, what type of file save system does this use? Flatfile? Sql? mysql? database or what >.<

 

all residences are saved to a yaml file names res.yml in the residence folder. always back it up

 

Hmm. One issue. Fire.
Fire doesn't seem to be stopped properly. Even though ignite and firespread is set to false. It is still able to spread.
I even tryed doing this, and then starting a fire. And the fire spread, a little slower than normaly but it did spread, and it did destroy. Also, it is possible to put lava outside of the Residence, and then it will flow into the Residence and set fire to wooden things.

There should be a "fire" flag that does the same as the iZone fire flag. In iZone it would prevent fire completely. Fire would be started and stopped ind the same second. How come this doesn't work nearly as well in this plugin?

 

How rough is this going to be during saves once people start making residences....

 

@bekvon

Great to see you around Been using this - as you know - since quite a long time now and still love it to death.

One quick thing: On the lastest dev build, setting a lease as infinite with the /resadmin lease set command doesnt seem to work at all (always gives back 'Type /res ? or /resadmin? for help').
I need to either edit the res.yml and remove leases or buy them myself.

Any idea?

 

i don't have any issues with it. i just have a backup script which grabs the world files, and the res.yml and dumps them in a tar with the date and time. whenever a residence is created/changed it saves out the changes. it doesn't affect players at all.

 

Not sure how to go about all that lol. I'm just wondering because I don't want a couple weeks to go by and the server start catching extreme lag spikes during saves.... that's what I'm worried about. I went through it with ownblocks.

 

im running out of time...
same issue, but i do have all the backup files.

i tried to paste the res.yml in ANY THINKABLE way to the server (reload, restart, shutdown...) and its getting reset to default after each step.

why cant i just paste it in and everything is allright?

 

So what should I do for backing up the res.yml and so on?

 

I just got this error and i have look at my permissions but i can't find anything. It was:

I'm not good at errors but see what you think?

 

i just have a shell script which copies it out (as i mentioned above.) just backing up that file somewhere (copypaste) is enough. when you wish to restore a backup of the res's you will NEED to shut down the server, as residence saves out all it's residences again when it shuts it'self down.
EDIT: and with the own block example, this saves nowhere near as much data, you'd need to be creating thousands and thousands of residences to get a noticeable skip

if the server is completely shutdown and you paste it in it should be fine. the only reason it wouldn't work is if there was a parser error in the yml, and residence decides to clear it (should pop up with an error on startup in that case.).

what version of residence and bukkit you using? (permissions as well if your using it.)
those messages tend to happen on old builds of residence.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Thing is I use a hosting service so I have no console.

 

so there's no way to stop the server from being online at all? and can you retrieve files back from the host? if no in either of these cases, you'll have to find a similar plugin with a mysql backend so you can save out mysqldumps. seems rather icky if you don't have a console to work with.

 

sorry forgot all that, 860 bukkit and permissions 3.1

 

No no, I have FTP access and such. I can also shut the server down to pull files out and put files in thats no problem. I just want to ensure that I'm not going to have any problems. I just don't have a console so I won't know if there is a parser error.

 

the quickest way would be to run the res.yml through a yaml parser: http://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/ is great (when your restoring a backup.) otherwise, all the residences won't be there if you load up and hop in if there was a parser error.

3.1.? is it 3.1.1? and are you using residence 2.2?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Sorry

3.1.1 and 2.2
