Inactive [MECH] EnderStorage v1.0 - Let the Endermen take care of your storage needs [1.2.5 R4]

EnderStorage - the remote storage solution.
Version: 1.0



I was playing around in 1.8 when I realized that the Endermen could be really useful. They can teleport, and they can carry blocks- so why not make them work for you? This plugin gives you an answer when you run out of inventory space, and it uses the Ender Pearls- giving them another feature besides teleporting- as payment for the Endermen's invaluable services. Here's how:
With an Ender Pearl in hand, look directly at the block you want to store. It can't be bedrock, a chest, or similarly unmovable block. Type /estore, and a (usually) friendly Enderman representative will teleport over, grab the block you indicate, and then take it to a secret hiding place in the Nether. You can store up to 64 blocks this way. Run out of inventory space in a deep mine, but have Ender Pearls on you? No problem, an Enderman will take care of that.
When it's time for you to redeem your goodies, simply type /es while looking at a block. Another Enderman will saunter up and plop down a chest full of everything that they've stored away for you. When this happens all of the stored blocks will be returned at once, and you can start stockpiling again.

Features:
* Let the Endermen take care of your storage needs, carrying up to 64 blocks
* One unique inventory per player, which can be held indefinitely until retrieved
* Get all your stored blocks with a simple command: /es
* Store a block by looking at it and typing /estore
* Delivery service from Endermen! What else do you want?

Nice Idea

i will try it


Edit//

The Chest should be protected with LWC/Lockete.
The Chest should be go away. (No Chest Farming)
It should something Costwith iConomy (Storing and the chest etc.)
PEX (PermissionsEx)
the Command /es should be configurable

k that was it

Edit2//

The Blocks which i rightklick should be MINED.
(Grass to DIRT Block.. and not that in the Chest is then Grass Block..)

Edit3//

No Sun Damage on the Ender's
A Delay for HARD TO MINE BLOCKS like OBSIDIAN..
A Delay for the Shout of a Ender

Edit5//

a TP Command to go to the Nether where the Items are...

 

Amazing

 

WOW. Best idea ever! Would of never thought of making this.

 

I'll think of adding some of the suggestions but the only ones I see in the near future would be the disappearing chest, Permissions, and some kind of basic config file.

 

very creative! defintily using this!

 

You should add something that lets your store your chest back, or atleast make it so the chest will return after set amount of time.

 

This is hilarious but useful, and the player base should get a real kick out of it.

 

Notch tweeted he was nefing it though

 

The Enderman nerf has nothing to do with this plugin.

 

YOU
ARE
EPIC

 

Awesome. Works great for spawners

 

Mind if i attempt to do a video for this soon?

 

@NeoSilky That would be great, go for it

 

i'll do it ASAP!

 

Oh my.... OOOh my ._.

 

This plugin makes me very happy

 

Haha, this is great

 

Permissions would be lovely, we want to use this as a feature specific to donators of a certain tier on our server, but of course everyone can right click blocks with a pearl, which makes for a disaster with Factions xD I attempted to improvise by adding a plugin that wrapped the actions with the pearl and the command with a permission, but the right clicking with the pearl still continues as I cannot cancel the event before EnderStorage handles it

 

@darklust EnderStorage listens on the Lowest priority so it can be easily overriden by protection plugins. Not sure what the problem is, but I'll add permissions support soon.

 

Right, it is lowest priority however when I attempt to cancel the PLAYER_INTERACT event at highest priority, I find the code still executes along with my own. Not a big deal however as you're going to implement permissions

 

it doesn't work when I right click a block with an ender pearl no endermen are coming but it still consumes my ender pearl

 

@astinax Are there any errors? What kind of block are you trying to pick up? Is there enough space for an Enderman?

 

I'm not getting any errors and I'm trying to pickup a grass block in a flat open space.

 

Try reinstalling. I've never had this problem before.

 

I get error
Could not pass event PLAYER_INTERACT to EnderStorage
java.lang.NullPointerException
blahblahblah

 

That "blahblahblah" bit usually contains the details of the file & line that caused the error and so is probably very useful to the developer

 

Could not pass event PLAYER_INTERACT with EnderStorage
java.lang.nullpointerexception

Thats all I can type for now.
