How the rules.txt works
It is very simple:
There are 2 settings currently which you can change:
joinmessage=
prefix=
Both support colours like the rest of the plugin

To add a category, make a new tag [name]
There is 1 main category named "main", this will always be shown if people just use /rules
You can use the main category to point to the other pages, like I did in the example.

Note: You don't have to /reload for changes to take place.

How to add colours in your rules (open) How to add colours in your rules (close)

How to add COLOURS in your rules.
There are some @tags@ which you can add to make colours in the line.

@@ @red@ @pink@ @gold@ @blue@ @gray@ @aqua@ @green@ @black@ @yellow@ @darkred@
@darkblue@ @darkgray@ @darkaqua@ @darkgreen@ @darkpurple@

(The @@ is the regular chat colour (white), becouse it saves file space and isn't hard to remember)


You can see some examples in the example above.

Looks Good Im liking it but you need to follow these guidelines...
http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/plugin-release-submission-guidelines.1755/

 

Clean up the post a bit, see the plugin submission guidelines above.

 

Changed the post, I hope this is better (?)

 

I use this on my server, Because it's so simple and yet so good.

 

Please don't include the + in version #, you never know which build breaks it.

 

Changed, sorry.. wasn't aware that was wrong becouse I saw some plugins with that, too

 

It would be VERY VERY VERY awesome if you could somehow make it configurable to make the main /rules appear when people log in, that way they are aware it even exists.

 

settings will be added in 1.1, with that in it too

bump &
Version 1.1 live:
added:

• joinmessage=
• prefix=

in rules.txt, see post "how rules.txt works" for instructions

Please help!!!

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it guess you had no join message? (not that it's wrong, but just to be sure)
Anyhow, the new version should prevent this from happening, if it does though, please tell me.

 

Thanks

 

Well, im not really sure how to my welcome message i used to have something in the properties file that would change it but i can't find that anymore and thanks for updating

are there any more colors that you could get?


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

 

Minecraft doesn't support more colours then these 16, so nope

 

Best rule plugin EVER!

[Info]
prefix=Du får inte gå in på andras område!
prefix=Fråga en OP för att få byggtillstånd.
prefix=Man får INTE svära eller vara otrevlig mot andra spelare.
prefix=Straffet blir 48 tim ban.
prefix=Gör man det två gånger blir det en permanent ban.

[Pengar]
prefix=Vi handlar med coins.

prefix=Det ger Sergeant1337 500 coins.

[Hunger]
prefix=Här på servern blir du hungrig.
prefix=På två minuter blir du 10 % hungrig.
prefix=När det når 100 % börjar du svälta och kommer förlora liv.

prefix=Skriv /Hunger

use this instead:

Just a suggestion, but could you possibly add another layer of categories.
eg:
Main points to first categories, General, Building and Mods.
General points to a list of Banned Items, Offensive Language, Disagreements.
Banned Items has the pages with a list of banned items.

I'm not sure if that makes sense but I think it would add even more to the plugin.
Thanks,
TheKitty

 

You can make whatever you want be pointing to whatever you like, its highly 'configurable'

 

is it tested on build 740

 

Does it work with craftbukkit version 733? I use the default text file from the first post and CommandBook with disabled rules function.
In the console is all correct (Easy Rules enabled) but ingame it shows if I writting only /rules, that the category doesn't exit and I have to use /rules (that what I had do) or /rules <category>.

Sorry for my bad English.
Caesar2011, ingame nick

 

Works fine with 740 so yeah..

 

Ok, so but I use a Plugin which need 733. Let's Watch for a update.

Edit: Updated, Works fine.

 

@PCITJunior This should work with any build for minecraft 1.4/1.5, but I rather only store the most used builds in the title
