What is TourGuide? The best way to find a good server is to look at the creations players have made on it. Unfortunately these can be spaced out all over the map and a new player may not see them. TourGuide allows a player to join a tour group and view all the sights of your server. You set the locations and TourGuide can do the rest. TourGuide also allows you to be the guide of a tour, after all, no one knows your server better than you! Features Admin Defined POIs Player can guide a tour, otherwise it is done automatically NPCs as Guides SQLite to store POIs General Information Other Information Please use tickets for support as this will help me manage the plugin and provide better support
TourGuide v1.1.0 POI's POI's now load correctly, Pitch and Yaw were reversed on old verion POIs check themselves onLoad to make sure the spawn area is safe Spawn area has changed from 1 long line to a square, the size of which is formed from maxPlayers/2 in configuration Groups Fixed error where TourGuide would return the position 0 when creating a new group during the jointour command Groups are disbanded gracefully when the server reloads (Will add persistence in a later version) Tours Tour Members cannot be harmed, nor can they do damage to other players Tour Members cannot edit blocks Fixed player not being removed from tour on quit Tours are ended gracefully when the server reloads (Will add persistence in a later version) Added "/tg vote" for tour members to vote for the next POI. Once all players have voted the countdown timer will be set to 5 seconds, this will also overwrite tours with guides NPC's NPCs cannot be killed Players can now interact with NPC's using right click. Tour members see the name of the current POI while other players are told to type /jointour Default Config has been changed for the NPC's Name. It is now T_Guide. This will load a player I have created and given a proper skin General Broadcasts are no longer shown to players in a group or on a tour Cleanup of response messages, including adding prefixes Fixed TourGuide showing help after displaying results from certain commands Minor changes for latest CraftBukkit build
Any feedback would be appreciated. If it's working for everyone I can start heading towards a full release.
Nope, I wasn't aware there was an original TourGuide plugin. I searched both the forums and BukkitDev.
Thats fine. It might of been named something else. As far as I can tell this plugin is working properly.
v1.2.1 Released POI Added ability to add and remove descriptions Changed POI Spawn checking to check for solid blocks rather than air POI now tells you if it is not active when created Database Added support for MySQL
It is highly recommended you back up your [DBNAME].db file in plugins/TourGuide. This plugin makes changes to the database and while I've tried to ensure no data is lost it could still happen. I take no responsibility for any data loss General Added a more graceful fall-back when TourGuide started without RemoteEntities running. You'll no longer get the SEVERE warning about TourGuide not being able to register RemoteEntity events Fixed bug that caused multiple groups to be created when removing all POIs and then adding one Fixed MOTD.enable configuration option being ignored when set to false POI Changed the commands to add/remove commands Added ability to rename POI Added ability to Enable/Disable POIs manually (allows you to override an automatic disable) Added POI debug command - This shows you all the blocks that are causing an error within a POI Database Added support for saving POI's state (enabled/disabled) Coming Soon Spout Support TourGuide Photo/Server sharing site
Im confuse on this plugin, does it teleport players to one location for a timed period then to the next or is it just like /warps where players have to enter in individual names of the locations?
superkanub it's timed. Players go round in Groups and you can specify the amount of time a group can stay at a POI
