[INACTIVE][SEC/MECH/FUN] Electric Fences v1.4.1 - Shock your intruders [928]

So yeah, I looked around for a plugin like this and could not find anything close to it!
So I decided to make my own and submit it here as I thought I should give something back to the community. This is my first submission to Bukkit.org, so please don't flame me for it!
Working on the latest builds, no issues found as of yet, but if you find any, don't be afraid to shout!

Review by the user jamescosten on the 1.1 release (Highlighted issues contained have now been fixed as of 1.3)

Example Usage of Fence:
A current can be acquired up to two blocks below, or one block on any side and then running a current through.
Then, just wait for someone to try and get through your fence!

Code:

CHANGELOG:

1.0
- First Version

1.2
- Fences cannot be broken, unless using a super pick
- Fires from the lightening do not spread
- Actually stopped the fences from being broken
- Added XML settings to allow the user to change the damage dealt.

1.3
- Fences are now electrified up to 10 blocks high from the point of the redstone wire.
- The configuration file is now automatically created for you, and is found at /plugins/ElectricFence/ElectricFence.conf
- [BUG] Permissions have been added. If you have the permission ElectricFence.bypass or you are an OP on the server, you can now avoid being damaged by the lightening and can destroy the electric fences.

1.3.1
- Removed permissions section due to bug issue, expect it to come out in 1.3.2

1.4
- Electrocutes players near the fence for a customizable amount of damage.
- Option for a specific block the have to be under the electric fence (For example Iron Ore as suggested by a user)
- Changes to the configuration file

1.4.1
- Fixes OP/Player shocking permissions

 

hmm using the Dev version, the created default conf is completely blank.

And also, with either Stable or Dev, I never receive damage when being struck by fence lightning (however, regular lightning kills me.) I'm not an op.

Great plugin idea, but it doesn't actually hurt the player in my case.

 

mmmmm could you make it so players and most importantly mobs/animals gets hurt when they stay in contact with the fence like 1 heart per second or something. Because i usually want to protect myself from mobs more than players and they dont break fences

 

fixed my previous error with not getting hurt once i upgraded to new dev version. however this error pops up every once in a while.

also config file is definitely blank. After multiple saves and restarts, re install it never showed up.

 

I think I'm going to name my first-born after you. Thank you for implementing my idea

 

as soon as i updated to 1.4 dev the damage is gone

 

great plug in! so much fun to see the first time someone new to the server finds it! thanks for all the hard work.

 

for some reason, the electric fences only kill ops. when a regular guest tries go break it, nothing happens.can some one help me?

 

Gah, I'm so sorry about that delay, last week in education.
Stupid schoolboy error on my behalf. Check the 1.3.2 fix which I've just uploaded.
And check the changelog too.

And I'll fix that issue now, because that is very important.

 

Hey, school is way more important than a game dude. Thanks for the fix.

One suggestion would be to add the version number to successfully loaded text that way us admins can tell we have the latest version! lol

 

I'll include that now!
However, as it's such a tiny change, I won't change the version title from 1.4.1, I'll just include it quietly.
Feel free to download it now from the same link.

 

Perfect, Now Ill be able to bug you ever upload a new version and it didn't change and it will make it easier to troubleshoot when your positive you have the latest version!

Sounds great, now to just wait for the blank config file fix! haha thanks again for the hard work on this plugin.

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

 

Hi, you have created a great plugin but i have a got problem:
I want, that the lightning is killing people.
But when i open the config file, it's clear.
Thx for help
Fliwatt

 

Quality plugin! Something I will be using on my server for sure. Thank you! ;D

 

If you took a look at the last page of people talking, you'd notice that this is a bug I am currently working on.
Check back soon to find the fixed version!

Thank you very much for the feedback! Glad you like it!

860 is not the latest build, you should update to the latest (928) as there are a lot of changes on entities.
