    What is Safe Creeper
    Control creepers, Withers, EnderDragons, Enderman, TNT, Fireballs and a lot more!
    With Safe Creeper you can control creeper explosions and other things like, fireballs, TNT, Enderman and a lot of other things, you can set if a creeper explosions destroys blocks. You can set if Zombie's can break down doors. You can also set a lot of other things, the possibilities are almost endless! A few other examples are that you can set up if players are able to use TNT blocks, if creepers will explode above the surface and underneath they wont, set if Enderman can place and break blocks, even if they can clone blocks, explosion sounds, smoke effects and a lot of more things. The plugins is fully configurable and it has multi world support. This is a must have for most server administrators.

    Example Video
    This is an video witch explains the config file system of an older version of Safe Creeper, it should work very similair with the current version. This video also shows you some features from Safe Creeper:

    Connections to the outside
    Safe Creeper does setup connections to the outside, to other servers than the server Safe Creeper is running on. In the current versions (v1.3.6 and above) Safe Creeper does connect to the following servers; The first connection Safe Creeper sets up is a connection to the update servers of Safe Creeper. This update server is a separated server hosted by timvisee.com (developer of Safe Creeper). The connections to the update servers are made on each start up, and each hour while the plugin is running. These connections can be disabled inside the config file of Safe Creeper underneath the node 'updateChecker'. Because of the update checker and the auto updater Safe Creeper does also setup a connection to dev.bukkit.org to download the newest plugin versions. Other connections are made to the servers of mcstats.org, this is a service Safe Creeper uses to add live statics, like the amount of servers running Safe Creeper, these statics are fully anonymous. Connections to mcstats.org and live statics usage can be disabled inside the Safe Creeper configuration file.

    @ Tim Visee
    Maybe no big deal but could you add an external download mirror aswell? As you might know one has to register to get the attachments and I can imagine few people will register solely to get this plugin - like I did ;)

    The plugin works really good btw. Since I discovered that my mob grinder could slowly teared apart by the Endermen and installed this handy .jar there's no such annoyance anymore (as of now). Thanks for that ;)

    I don't know if it's already the case, but I'd like to be able to set some changes via command line, not making the changes in the config file manually. Is it already possible or can you add this feature please? Thanks in advance!

    Code:
    EndermanControl:
        Enabled: true
        CanPlaceBlock: false
        CanPickupBlock: false
        # If an endermen wants to pickup a block, and he can't, don't break the block but the endermen get a clone of that block in his hands
        CanCloneBlock: true
        # If an endermen wants to place a block, and he can't, don't place anything but remove the holding block out of his hands
        ClearHandsOnPlace: true
        # Only enable these settings if you are between two levels (you must enable 'EnableBetweenLevels' to use it).
        EnableBetweenLevels:
            Enabled: false
            MinLevel: 0
            MaxLevel: 127
    this is my config.

    why enderman still can pick and place block?

    You probably used a TAB character in your global or world files..

    I don't know, YOu need to put this in the global.yml file, and I suggest to check the world files because they can overwrite those settings!

    REALLY strange, check if the plugin starts, the plugin starts befor the world preperation, so the plugin throws an enable message before the world preperation! If the plugin enables, its probably another plugin that cause this problem

    Tim Visee

    @ global config, you MUST need to enable 'Enabled' to true (underneeth 'EndermanControl')! This is to enable the control over the enderman, such as the pickup controll!

    @ world config I see on the seccond line you disabled the enderman control and on the last line you enabled it, just enable it on the first line and disable it on the last line. Oh and btw, the enderman will spawn, thats right, you can set if they can spawn in the upcomming version.

    Hope this helps :)

    So you're really sure you DIDN'T changed anything and you added the SafeCreeper.jar file to the plugins folder and the SafeCreeper folder contents in a SafeCreeper folder in the plugins folder? If you do, it's really strange, then its maybe another plugin that cause this problem. So if you're sure about all this, tell me

    :O, IT DOES! I use it in my server and it works fine, I also saw it in a lot of other servers and it still works to.
    You maybe set something wrong. Check if you have enabled the encerman control with the 'Enabled' thing underneeth the 'EndermanControl' header. If you did, you probably overwrite the settings with a world file

    I have a question...is it possible to empower the creeper's damage to land and keep the damage done to the player the same?

    How about an option to block Endermen picking up certain blocks? I just don't want them to pick up log and leaf blocks making my forests look terrible. Maybe just have a "Restrict pickup for Block ID:" field in the config where we can just add the blocks we want protected from them.

    Hey, I updated the server yesterday to 1.8.1 and try to disable that Enderman pick up and place block. Now I want to ask, what the name of the files in the worlds directory has to be. And the example in the world directory is different to this in the global file, which is kind of confusing. Also example.yml has two EndermanControl nodes like in this post.

    And one other thing: Your download links aren't very wget friendly :/ There is only the dropbox link, but hidden behind a adf.ly link on your page.

    In the upcomming version I will add a function to set if a player get damages by creepers, (I hope im able to do it!) When I done that you can set it, destroyworld to true and playerdamage to false, but no, you cant do this with the current version :(

    Yes, I already wanted to do that, its really usefill, also another user ask me that. I will add this in the upcomming version, I don't know how long it takes to develope, but I hope it's finished soon!

    Yes, the Cake(town) is a lie!

    Yes, about the world files, Thanks for the report that the enderman node is 2 times in the file. And you're right, the example files doesn't contain all the things you can change, its just an example, so you also don't need to put everything in it, for suggestion, if you dont use 'Enabled' underneeth the 'EndermanControl' header, it will use the global settings.
    So you ask me how to link a world file to the world, its just realy easy, you need to create a file (in the world configs folder) and name it the name of the world with the extention .yml behind it. Then open the file and set the world things, so you can also rename an example file to the name of your world, I hope you understand.

    About the download links, yes I use adfly, I just need to get some money, because it takes a LOT of time to develop the plugins and Im really bussy with my school and other things, im just 14, so yes, I need to get some money, I desided to use adfly because almost everyone know's how it works, and its only 5 secconds of waiting on the download, with most of the download services you need to wait 1 minute or so. I can also use adds on the website, but that will spoil the design of the website, and of course I don't want to let happen this, I hope you understand, I want to have a nais and clean website.

    Sweet, it's not really what I meant though, my bad. What I meant is: Is there a way or will there be a way to amplify the damage to the land and keep the damage to the player the same.

    With my current settings on my server, creepers one shot you unless you're wearing a diamond armor but cause too little damage to the land from my perspective.

    What i would like for them to do is still one shot you unless you're in a diamond armor but a normal creeper will damage the land as if empowered by lightning and a powered creeper will blow up even more land.

    I hope that's a bit clearer :p English ain't my first language so I have some hard times from time to time explaining exactly what i mean hehe.
