What is uCreate?​

uCreate is a plugin that allows you to transform any world (or your entire server) into a game similar to Minecraft Classic. Each aspect of uCreate is configurable, letting you have every feature you want, and none that you don't.

Features: (all totally optional)

• Automatically activates Notch's creative mode
• Drop disabling (fixes notch's silly bugs)
• Weather disabling
• Creature spawning disabling
• Time disabling (day or night)
• Flat map world generator
• Homes
• Teleporting
• Item spawning (/i or /item)
• Explosion disabling
• Block physics disbaling
• Liquid spread disabling
• Fire spread disabling
• Permissions
• ..And more!

uCreate won't lag your server.

"But uCreate has so many features, it will lag!"
Nope. If you don't want a certain feature, uCreate won't even register the listener. Meaning, any feature you don't want, you literally won't have.

Configuration:
uCreate 2.0 had it's config totally redesigned. It's a lot to take in, so to help you figure it out, I made this neat little chart:
(as of 2.1, the config was trimmed a lot, due to Minecraft 1.8)
[/tr][/tr

noFireSpread	true/false	Disables fire spreading and damage.

Code:

physics:
    noFireSpread: true
    noLiquidSpread: false
    noBlockFall: false
    noExplosions: true
commands:
    clearinv: false
    itemSpawning: false
    teleport: false
    homes: false

    permissions: false
    defaultStackSize: 64

world:
    noWeather: true
    noCreatures: true
    stopTime: 'off'
general:
    noDrops: true
    breakBedrock: false

Commands:
Syntax: /command OR /command [required] (optional)

Permissions:
Using permissions in uCreate is totally optional. In the config (under 'settings') is an option called 'permissions' If set to false, no permissions will be used, so everybody can use all the features. If it's set to true, only people with specified permissions will be able to do certain things.
Supported permissions: SuperPerms/PermissionsBukkit, Permissions 3.x, Permissions 2.x, *PermissionsEX (*needs confirmation)

Permission	Description
ucreate.*	Gives acess to all of the uCreate permissions. (default Op)(works with SuperPerms)
ucreate.notch	Gives players access to the features of Notch's creative mode.
ucreate.itemspawn	Allows players to use the /i and /item commands.
ucreate.homes	Allows players to use /home and /sethome.
ucreate.teleport	Allows players to use the teleport commands.
ucreate.admin	Allows players to bypass teleport requests.
ucreate.wool	Allows players to use the /wool command/
ucreate.clearinv	Allows players to use the /clearinv command.

How to make your worlds generate a uCreate flatmap:
Just follow these instructions to make specific worlds generate a uCreate flatmap. This will not overwrite existing worlds, however newly generated chunks will be flat.

1. Edit "flatMapHeight" in the config.
2. Decide which worlds you want to be flat ('flatworld' for this example)
3. Open your bukkit.yml file (in your server directory) with a text/yaml editor.
4. Add this to your bukkit.yml (where 'flatworld' is the name of your world):
   Code:

   worlds:
             flatworld:
                   generator: uCreate

5. Enjoy your new flat map!

What happened to the old uCreate?
With the release of Notch's creative mode, some features of uCreate have become obsolete. Some features like the insta-break blacklist are no longer available due to the way Notch's creative is coded. Go yell at Notch

Changelog:
Version 2.1:

• Implemented Notch's 1.8 creative mode
• Scrapped obsolete features
• Deleting your config and re-doing it is HIGHLY recommended, but not required.
• Don't expect any more updates after this.

Version 2.0.4:

• Added /wool command
• Added /clearinv command
• Both commands have corresponding permissions and configs
• CONFIG AUTO UPDATES FOR THE FIRST TIME.

Version 2.0.3:

• Made the ItemInventory support up to 10 pages which are choosable by pressing number keys.

Lol, you're welcome. I hope you enjoy it.

 

Bug:

If I use a Lighter, I became 2 Fire.... So my user could craft the Chain Armor.
ps: bb works

Request: item/block-blacklist, to prevent the use or placement of an item/block. Possible?

 

Thanks for that info. I'll fix that soon.
Thanks for the bb info too.

I'll also add that request soon.

 

Hurra thanks

 

Did you also get my post about doors, diodes, and redstone wire giving improper items back?

Also, I'm getting null pointer exceptions if the config file isn't perfectly formed (or if I don't disallow any blocks).

Code:

Okay, yeah, I tested it and BigBrother logs it just fine.

I put the other plugin back in and disabled instaMine though because it makes every tool/block into an instant destruction tool and I'd rather the bugs the other plugin has than to not be able to assign it to a tool (and being able to turn it on/off is nice too). I understand that's not the way it functions in actual classic/creative, but only one of the people on my server ever was on classic (that I'm aware of) so it's more a matter of there not really being a reason to make people adjust to a new circumstance if I don't need to.

 

Can you post the config?

 

Code:

worlds: world, world_nether, flatlands
instaMine: false
noDrops: true
godMode: true
infiniteBlocks: true
instaBreakBlacklist:

or simply omitting the last line causes it, too.

 

Ok I know what the problem is when omitting the blacklist. Until I fix it, put some random numbers in the blacklist like..
instaBreakBlacklist: 123,456

 

I just used 0, actually.

 

That'll also work, since you can't break air anyway.

 

Flint and steel is also not replaced properly; when lighting a portal using flint and steel, it gets replaced with a portal block.

 

A lot of this type of plugins have said problems. Redstone wire usually is replaced with the ugly, ID 55 version, repeaters have the same for their counter parts, and the data value for wool is usually set back to 0 no matter what.
That being said, Idk if your plugin is like that.

 

I'm not sure about wool, but this plugin certainly acts like that for repeaters, wires, and doors.

 

No, it shouldn't do that for wool or wood, but rather items that have 2 or more IDs. I'll see if there is a pattern, and fix it.
Sorry I've been lacking updates, I'm working on a huge plugin.

 

The pattern seems to be that it replenishes your inventory with the item placed, rather than the item taken from the inventory.

 

Bug request:

If I go with my tools to the Creativeworld an hit any block with the tool, it's completely repaired.
Possible to fix this?

 

I don't understand.

 

Normal World: Some Mining.... the pickaxe has 30% durability.
I go through my portal in the creative-world and I hit a block, the pickaxe is repaired = 100% durability.

Edit:
Big sorry, my fault. It was WorldGuard..... *grml*

Question:
Is the AutoHeal from your plugin? If yes: request to disable it.

@DrAgonmoray

 

All features are disable-able via config, so probably not.

 

Signs also give the other id when dropped.

Also is is deliberate that is someone gives them self an item and I have no drops the item is not given to them?

 

Hey @DrAgonmoray
I cant seem to /give or /i on my "Creative" worlds. I have permissions and Essentials installed. Are they affecting?
Then, what commands are in uCreate?

Thanks

 

@capeguy

Have you got drops enabled?

 

Nope

 

@capeguy
It works like this then (i think)
If drops are not enabled, how can the item spawn on the ground if it counts as a drop entity thing and that's been disabled?

EDIT: What I mean is spawning items counts as a spawning a drop. How can this appear then if drops are disabled

 

I meant giving myself items. (When I'm not an op and I'm a normal builder)

 

@capeguy

do you have essentials?

 

Yes

 

From what you have said I think it must be permissions.
Make sure you triple check your permissions
