    hmm i downloaded the new one from the link but it still says its 1.2 not 1.2.1 and the file size is exactly the same but the zip i downloaded says 1.2.1 in the name of the zip. Is the link messed up or is my VM instance playing tricks on me?

    No I just forget to modify the version ^^
    I reupload a new one (1.2.1) for 818
    because there were no true changes in fact

    I don't know, maybe a configurable properties file to choose furnace power (I think that's what it is)

    I have a suggestion:

    Okay I was thinking that in the last minute, maybe if there is a noteblock connected to the redstone signal at the bottom of the tower, it could make a noise in the last 30 seconds of power left, or maybe torches around the second to top block of the thunder tower, the redstone torches could flash on and off :D

    Like my setup?
    Pictures of my setup attached :D 2011-06-14_17.47.54.png 2011-06-14_17.47.57.png 2011-06-14_17.48.03.png 2011-06-14_17.48.14.png

    By the way, the redstone leading to the invert gate is to show if the tower is powered or out of power.

    =D

    Oh that's nice
    I'm the last one with only a poor thundertower in iron ^^
    But what do you want me to do ?

    EDIT : Can you take a Screen with a lightning strike on your tower ?
    It's for the post ^^

    Oh my god! I LOVE THIS! I mean, You can like add advanced redstone support and disable any redstone torch in the server. And like your only able to get redstone power from lighting! Then you can like make Lighting farms that create redstone power and can save it in like Batteries!

    rominos2

    Yes but I think I'll create another plugin one day like RedStoneBattery.
    But no, the redstone support is not for me, it's yet hard to active redstone 5 sec so I let that to others ^^

    Here is a tip: do NOT use plugman with this. If you reload this plugin with plugman, then you do /lightning , your console goes INSANE. it goes so freakin fast with errors. Lol.

    I do not use this command in my plugin

    I think he means he uses Essentials or WeatherRestrictions. They both have the /lightning command to make lightning happen. He reloaded the plugins, and did /lightning to make lightning appear to test the thundertower. At least I think that was what he was doing rofl. It would make no sense otherwise. It sounds like he had console spam after using plugman to reload this plugin.

    Well, I found that it corrupts the world, It also makes the server log unreadable.

    That isn't a command, that is a permission node for the permissions plugin
