    DropChest - Chests that absorb dropped items
    Version 0.8.2
    [​IMG]
    Important! When migrating from 0.6 to any above version, you have to move the DropChest.txt from server/plugins/DropChest.txt to server/plugins/DropChest/DropChest.txt
    This is because I have to follow the Bukkit plugin saves guidelines.

    This plugin automatically adds dropped items to near chests. That is very useful for automatic farming and monster traps that gather loot.
    Features
    • automatically suck dropped items that are near a chest to that chest
    • customizable warning if the chest is nearly full
    • list your DropChests and watch how much percent is still free
    • Permissions
    • Filter
    • Storage Minecart support
    • Dispenser and Furnace support
    • Item information
    • Chest protection
    • Automatic Owner tracking
    • Double-Chest support

    Usage
    Commands
    Show commands (open)

    To add a chest to the "watchlist", type
    Code:
    /dropchest add [radius]
    After that, rightclick the chest that you want to add. Radius is the radius in which the Chest should suck items. Default value is 2.

    To remove a chest from the "watchlist", just type
    Code:
    /dropchest remove chestid
    where chestid is the number of the chest that you get when you call /dropchest list

    You can list the chests that are on the watchlist via
    Code:
    /dropchest list
    You can adjust the radius of a chest via
    Code:
    /dropchest setradius chestid radius
    You can check which id and radius the Chest in front of you has:
    Code:
    /dropchest which
    after that, rightclick on the Chest to get information about it.
    If you are sitting in front of the console, or don't want to rightclick, you can use
    Code:
    /dropchest info chest
    It will generate the same output as /dc which.

    You can teleport to a chest via
    Code:
    /dropchest tp chestid
    where chestid is the ID of the dropchest

    You can set the name of a DropChest via
    Code:
    /dropchest setname {chestid} {newname}
    The name is displayed in chest is full warnings, and in the DropChest list!

    If you migrate from 0.6 to 0.7, you can set the owner of a dropchest by typing:
    Code:
    /dropchest setowner {chest} {newowner}
    You can protect a chest by typing
    Code:
    /dropchest protect {chest} {on|off}
    You can always use /dc instead of /dropchest if you are lazy.

    Another very helpful command is /dcitem:
    Code:
    /dcitem [NAME|id]
    
    This can be used to obtain the name of an item by it's id or get an id of the item-name.
    This doesn't work with all names, though.

    Use the new command /chestinfo {name|id} to get info about what's inside the chest.
    Omit the argument and rightclick on any chest to get info about that.
    Example:
    Code:
    >/dcitem 4
    4 is COBBLESTONE
    >/dcitem cobblestone
    COBBLESTONE is 4
    

    Show Configuration (open)

    You can configure DropChest by pasting the contents of the following block to plugins/DropChest/dropchest.cfg
    Code:
    #Should the dropchest drop items when it gets a redstone signal?
    droponredstone=true
    #How long should the dropchest not suck items after it has dropped them
    waitafterdrop=10
    #Should users be able to protect chests like in LWC?
    usercanprotectchest=true
    #Which is the default radius if you omit the radius argument in /dropchest add?
    defaultradius=2
    #Which should be the maximum radius for players that have not dropchest.setBig and aren't ops?
    fallbackradius=15
    #At which fill-status should the chest warn you?
    warnfillstatus=90
    #Which message should appear as warning?
    #You can use this variables (example):
    # $owner : the owner of the chest (narrowtux)
    # $name  : the name of the chest (my superduper mobtower chest/#42)
    # $fill  : The fill status, in percent (81)
    warnmessage=$owner, your chest $name is nearly full($fill%).
    

    Filter / Storage Minecarts
    Show Filter/Storage Minecarts (open)

    Filters have changed in version 0.6. There are now 3 seperate filters that are for sucking items, pulling items from passing minecarts and pushing them to passing minecarts.
    You can now set the filters by either using commands or using the interactive mode. Let me show you the interactive mode first:
    to begin, type
    Code:
    /dropchest filter {suck|push|pull}
    Note: choose one of suck, push or pull, please (for example /dropchest filter suck)
    Then you will enter the interactive mode. In this mode you can edit the selected filter by hitting the chest with the desired item in your hand.
    To edit another filter, type the above command again.
    To finish your filter, type
    Code:
    /dropchest filter finish
    Commands mode:
    Code:
    /dropchest filter {suck|push|pull} {chestid} {itemid|itemtype|clear}
    Call the filter-command like above, as second argument, use the chest-ID, and as third argument, either type the item-ID, the name of the item (as they appear here: org.bukkit.Material) or type clear to clear this filter.
    Please note! The suck filter acts different from the Pull/Push-Filter when it's empty. When the suck-filter is empty, the chest will suck every item. When a Pull/Push filter is empty, it won't take or give any items to a passing minecart.

    Show Permissions nodes (open)

    You can use these nodes:
    • dropchest - To get the right to use DropChest
    • dropchest.create - To call /dropchest add
    • dropchest.remove - To call /dropchest remove chestid
    • dropchest.radius.set - To set the radius of a Chest to something else than 2
    • dropchest.radius.setBig - To have unlimited radius
    • dropchest.which - To have access to the /dropchest which command
    • dropchest.teleport - To be able to teleport via /dropchest tp chestid
    • dropchest.filter - To set or reset filters
    • dropchest.filter.set - To set filters in interactive mode
    • dropchest.filter.reset - To reset filters in interactive mode (click with nothing in hand)
    • dropchest.list - To have access to /dc list and /dc info
    • dropchest.destroy - To be able to break a dropchest without removing it before.
    • dropchest.protect - To be able to protect a chest
    • dropchest.moderator - To be able to modify a dropchests properties even if you're not the owner. Also, ops and the console can do that.
    You can use these variables:

    • dropchestmaxradius - To adjust the maximum radius for a group or a user
    How to use variables:

    Code:
    users:
      narrowtux:
        info:
          dropchestmaxradius: 1000
    
    This is just an example and this also works with groups!

    Hmm it seems the transition to more efficient block lookups left that over. Also, the second error you posted is normal because it expects a number there.
    SQL would be an overkill and you wouldn't gain performance improvements from that BTW.
    Max dropchest number would be possible easily now, however, I need a new approach for getting per player information as permissions is clearly obsolete now.

    ahhh there was my mistake!
    as admin i had '*'
    dropchest.destroy - To be able to break a dropchest without removing it before.

    narrowtux

    No no it's supposed to remove the dropchest itself then ;)

    Release v0.8.1
    • Supports SuperPermissions (when no Permissions plugin was found)
    • Fixed show stopping bugs.
    • Use YAML as persistence storage. You can find the new file at plugins/DropChest/dropchests.yml

    Sorry when you can't download the new version just now, there are some issues with my webspace.

    Okay 0.8.1 is up now!

    how does the protection work?
    Plugin said chest is protected but other player could accessit and destroy it

    my permissions

    PHP:
    groups:
     
    Member:
            default:

    I was wondering if there was a way to make it so that it just checks for OP instead of permissions.

    If no permissions is installed, everyone may create dropchests.

    Downloaded 8.1
    its a bit buggy created 5 drop chests set filters and radius all ok but then when I created a 6th chest it overwrote chest 1 the seventh overwrote 2 and so on, also no config file is being generated on install creating one using the text in your OP returns an error on server start

    manually editing the yml file does allow the extra chests to be loaded

    Was it overwritten in the yml file or in the plugin at all? How many chests do you see when you type /dc list?

    You can ignore that and default values will be used instead.

    Oops :D

    Do you have a Permissions system? If not, *cough* that means you have to install one for superperms until I make default values for all the permissions.

    I removed my permission system yesterday, because we need those crap not longer.

    Our permission system caused more trouble, than it solved!

    Only 70% of all plugin were compatible.

    Without permission system 95% are compatible.

    Please update your plugin for default op permissions or iam not longer able to use it ( and many other people, too )

    Instead of trying to hook into the countless other plugins that can remove blocks, doing a simple check during any query of a DC chest to see if it exists. If it doesn't simply remove it from the database file and resume the action it was doing.

    Two things that I have noticed (that have been mentioned).

    1) new drop chests are not being retained after a server restart. My users have noticed that the chests will work until the server is restarted.

    2) if a drop chest radius over laps, and the radius is for a chest that specifically sucks an item (ex: chest 1 sucks only cobblestone and chest 2 only sucks sand. These two chests do nothing. -actialu testing by me points towards my users are on crack.

    what I saw was with 3 chest. chest 1 is sand, chest 2 is cobble, chest 3 is everything (no filter). Sand gets sucked up, but cobble does not. Not even into the general chest. even tried using the actual command instead of the interactive method.

    If I killed the cobble chest, could still not get the cobble to be sucked. After removing the sand chest, the loose cobble was sucked by the general chest.

    Ok I love it but is it intended so that only one half of a big chest sucks ?
    Oh and I made a suckchest which placed the items in the 4th row ?? (big chest)
