[INACTIVE][ADMN] MotherNature v1.2 - Control the weather, Umbrellas, Timed weather [711]

MotherNature - Control the weather:
Version: v1.2

So far, all the weather-controlling plugins have simply had commands for starting and stopping the weather. But what if you don't have any admins online and want rain? That's where this plugin comes in. Here, you set a time interval and duration, and it rains after a certain amount of time, every time! The process runs in a thread, so it is unaffected by lag. It also allows you to manually set rain, thunder, and even lighting! It also provides an umbrella, so you can stay dry even in the wettest weather! And, if you're feeling adventurous, holding gold boots and right-clicking a point anywhere in the world will strike a bolt of lightning!

Download MotherNature v1.2
Source Code

Configuration:

Running the program the first time will make a config.yml file in the MotherNature/ folder. Here are the config values you can set:

• debug - Debug mode. Should leave as false
• rain
  • interval - Seconds between rainstorms
  • duration - How long the rain should last, in seconds
• thunder
  • interval - Seconds between thunderstorms
  • duration - How long the thunder should last, in seconds
• wand - Item ID if the lightning wand. Defaults to gold boots.

Usage:

• /mn help - Shows a help message
• /mn version - Shows the version
• /mn reload - Reloads the config
• /mn rain - Starts a rainstorm
• /mn thunder - Starts a thunderstorm
• /mn lightning player - Strikes lightning down on a player
• /mn sun - Makes the day sunny again
• /mn umbrella - Holds an umbrella over your head

In addition to the commands, holding gold boots (if you have permissions) and right-clicking will strike lightning on the block that you click, even if you're far away from it.

Permissions:

MotherNature works best with either Permissions or GroupManager installed, but they are not required. Here is a list of permissions you can give them.

• "mothernature.command.help" - Use "/mn help"
• "mothernature.command.version" - Use "/mn version"
• "mothernature.command.reload" - Use "/mn reload"
• "mothernature.command.rain" - Use "/mn rain"
• "mothernature.command.thunder" - Use "/mn thunder"
• "mothernature.command.lightning" - Use "/mn lightning"
• "mothernature.command.sun" - Use "/mn sun"
• "mothernature.command.umbrella" - Use "/mn umbrella"
• "mothernature.wand" - Use the lightning wand

Umbrella does not work. Just letting ya know..

or maybe I didn't set it up correct idk. Just added the plugin and everything looked great. Had limited time so didn't really investigate farther xD

 

Is there a way to stop it from saying "The Clouds Clear" and so on?

 

Dosent work for me.

 

Thaanks works fine

 

the umbrella is a portable glowstone & wood generator, it's sould be undestructable.

 

Wanted to say.. GOOD JOB Yeta !! This plugin made me shat myself last night.. LMAO It was pitch black in my room and i'm playing minecraft and this plugin was on my new server I tested out last night. I have never seen weather in Minecraft before, so I had no clue what to expect.. Then it started to rain and I was "AWESOME".. then lightning and thunder hit and I saw lightning strike a tree and it scared the crap out of me.. LMAO

Awesome plugin !!!!

Works with cb714

I agree, this should be an option. Weather doesn't normally announce what its doing when you can plainly see it for yourself. Unless your one of those freaks that everything talks to you. Then hey, turn the option on for them.. LMAO

I would love to see more fine-grained control over the weather; perhaps some type of randomness factor allowed for each parameter, a setting for lightning frequency, and perhaps a setting which ensures lightning doesn't strike pigs. An awesome plugin, I definitely recommend it.

 

Doesn't weather and such come in 1.5? As far as i know there is no update in (craft)bukkit for MC 1.5 yet. Correct me if im wrong.

 

CB714 works with 1.5_1 +

Yes, I tried this without this plugin.. it DOES rain inside of the server without ANY weather plugins. BUT.. you do not get thunder or lightning.. ALSO.. here is a picture of what happens when a lightning struck a tree...

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

This is NOT a good plugin to have if your on a Build server and using things like wool etc. It will burn it down. I saw my whole village go up in flames.. IT WAS AWESOME and sad at the same time.. LMAO

 

Client side it will be alive, rejoin he is gone

Addon is very buggy

Specifically, the hooks that this requires were added in 709.

 

why there isn't a snow starting command?

 

To all the people asking, if you want snow, you must be in a snow biome.

 

thank u^^

 

Question, can we have a nothunder config option, where I can tell the server no thunder unless it's called upon by an admin, we've had some fantastic fires.

Or, is setting duration of thunder to 0 a way of already doing this.

 

Thanks for the plugin!

Can you add setting to the config to disable certain aspects? Disable/enable: thunder, rain, permanently, and by MultiWorld?

Thank you.

 

Probably a question for WorldEdit but is it possible to edit biome types to achieve this?

 

Biomes are determined at runtime, they're not saved.
A change to the worldgen code would be required for that.

 

I like this plugin, but I don't really like the fact that it overrides the default weather patterns. Perhaps make an option to specify an upper and lower boundary for interval and duration, allowing for a bit of randomness in when storms occur?

Also, does the thunder option specify when thunderstorms occur, or when thunder during a rainstorm occurs?

Edit:
Two things I've noticed which I'm not sure if they are a problem with your plugin or with SMP: Summoned lightning strikes will cause fire, but not a lasting fire, and summoned lightning strikes on pigs will create multiple pig-zombies, one server-side that acts like normal, and one to a few client-side ones that are not killable and do nothing but push you around (until you disconnect and reconnect).

 

Any chance of letting the server owner decide which item has lightning powers? This way, I could, for example, set it to the Gold Pickaxe (my texture pack has them as hammers) on my private server, and on other servers, one could make it, say, a Music Record to make it extremely rare
