Health scaling plugin, a few lines of code?

Saw this in another topic

Code:

        event.getPlayer().setHealthScale(60);
        event.getPlayer().setHealthScaled(true);

I changed it to 60, to allow 3 rows of hearts (hopefully). Would also like it to only trigger if player maxhealth is > 60. If 60 or under, no scaling necessary.

Also a /health command players can use to check health/maxhealth, and possibly a small scoreboard positioned above 3 rows of hearts + armor that displays health and max health when taking damage would be a very cool bonus.

Don't need permissions, but can include if you like to do that for all plugins. If a config is necessary it would be just to change the number 60, which would affect the threshold and scaling. Might be nice to have it in case I decide I don't like 3 rows of hearts, or more importantly my players want a change.

Can someone compile this for me?

 

Ok. Ok. Ok. Ok. 1) If you are asking for help, wrong section.
2) You can not increase the # of hearts you have. You can use absorbtion but that would be golden hearts.

Lol yes you can. My current plugin version has a thing that sets your max health to 50 hearts and actually shows 50 hearts.

Do you only want this code in it? Because I can easily do that. And is there any certain way you want it triggered? And I could possibly do a scoreboard. Whether I could position it above the hearts is a question but I could look into it. Is this for a public server or private use? If public I'd like to see the plugin once you add it if possible .

In response to Monkeyboystein ("You can not increase the # of hearts you have.")
There is a potion effect called Health_Boost that does exactly that.

JBoss925 I already have a plugin in place that lets players increase their max health permanently, so once they get to 60 I want to stop additional display hearts. But also don't want it to scale until they get up to 60+. So as far as triggering, it should be always on as long as they have over 60 health, or 60 can be an XX variable set in a config file as well.

The scoreboard position isn't all that important as long as it doesn't take up much space, and only displays for a few seconds after getting hit or by typing in a /myhp type command.

But yes this is all I need it to do. And my server is just me and 3 people I know IRL, but you could def come check it out. I'd have to manually give you over 60 health though lol, cause otherwise it would take you quite a while to see it do anything.

Edit: I'm leaning towards 40 for scaling now, so a config for XX for scaling would be a good investment, as it's possible I'll flip flop all over, maybe even back down to 20 if the scoreboard is useful enough.
Edit2: Due to plugin/mod compat, I'm on 1.6.4 if that makes a diff.

 

Alright still looking for some help with this. Will settle for
event.getPlayer().setHealthScale(40);
event.getPlayer().setHealthScaled(true);

On all the time with pretty much any method, chat or scoreboard, for a player to keep track of max health.

 

I mean physical hearts, you can not increase the red hearts,i believe its only golden hearts

 

sigh, yes you can. I'm already doing it.

A potion effect called Absorption does, in fact, add golden hearts to your health bar, that, when damaged, do not come back. However, if you read the minecraft wiki page from the link in my previous post, you would also see an effect called Health Boost. Health boost actually adds real red hearts to your health bar for as long as the potion effect lasts, with 2 more hearts added for every additional level of potency the potion is. Just try using the /effect command on yourself to test the effects of the potion, and you'll see how it works.

 

You also automatically get more hearts the higher your max health. My current character has 13 hearts at 26 permanent max health.

 

Incredibly sorry. Did not mean to seem arrogant, i looked through and didnt see the health boost. Sorry!

 

Monkeyboystein
No, that's totally okay. I was just trying to be clear about what I meant. The two potions had the same effect image and similar descriptions, so they can be understandably easy to miss.

What health modification plugin are you currently using?
Also, what are you asking for in the OP? If I understand correctly, you want the actual health of players to vary but the visual scaling is always to 3 rows of hearts?

 

sorry for the late reply. I use powerNBT to modify the max health value in players dat. I don't recall exactly what the attribute is called, but there are several that are interesting besides health.

And yes that's what I want. If possible I actually think I'd rather it be 1 row of hearts, or configurable per player such as /healthrows 1-5

The example in OP is a cut and paste from another topic where I assume that was just how it's coded, I'm surprised no one has made anything like this yet, at least not publicly available.

Been using skript, may have to simulate more health by reducing damage. I'll give it at least a few days or until I get bored. Would greatly appreciate this though.

 

Am I imagining that health scaling is possible or no one really wants to do this at all?
If anyone does, the default 10 hearts works for scaling, I don't think any more detail than that is beneficial. Final Answer. Thanks.

 

It is in-fact possible to give them more hearts than they normally have, it is a glitch within craftbukkit, I believe. If memory serves, if you give them health boost 2 then get their max health and set that as their max health then remove the effect they should have the extra hearts, it may have been patched, however.

The thread is over 7 months old...
Also, there is no glitch in Bukkit for this necessary...
Bukkit adds the method player.setMaxHealth();
