    SupplySign is now on dev.bukkit.org! Go there for the latest versions, a dedicated support forum, and ticket tracking system: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/supplysign/

    SupplySign - Infinite Items Distribution via Signs (now with dispenser support!)

    Use this plugin to distribute items and blocks to your players by creating [Supply] signs that load a chest interface when right-clicked. These signs can also be placed on chests.

    Download: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/supplysign/

    The Basics:
    • Place a sign
    • Set the first line to [Supply]
    • On each of the remaining lines, put the name(or item id) of the contents of the supply sign
    • Right-click the sign to open the chest.
    Chest Sign: To place a sign on a chest, make sure it is not within one block of another chest. Place your supply sign on the ground next to the chest and it will attach itself to the chest after you are done editing the sign. Right-clicking the sign or the chest will display the contents of the sign. If you want, you can put two signs on a large chest.

    Dispensers: Attach a sign to a dispenser in the same way you would attach one to a sign. The inventory of the dispenser will always be full of whatever is on the sign. If you use a kit, or if you put multiple items on the sign, only the first will be used. Remember that dispensers require redstone to activate, so it might be a good idea to wire up the dispenser and test it before attaching the sign. If the dispenser doesn't work without a SupplySign on it, then I can't help you (I'm no redstone expert).

    Using Kits: To use a kit, set the first line to [Supply] as usual, then put "kit:" followed by the kit name on the second line, ie. "kit:wool".
    Default Kits: wool, dye, woodtools, woodplus, irontools, ironplus, diamondtool, diamondplus, goldtools, goldplus, desert, makecake, chainmail

    Permissions:
    • Ops and players with the "supplysign.create" permission will be able to place supply signs.
    • Ops and players with the "supplysign.access" permission will be able to access them.
    • Ops and players with the "supplysign.destroy" permission can destroy existing supply signs.
    • Ops and players with the "supplysign.reload" permission can trigger a reload of items/kits data.
    • Players with "supplysign.access.kitname" can access the kit called "kitname".
    If you don't use permissions: Only Ops will be able to place SupplySigns. There is a config file option that will allow non-op players to access signs, but not place them.

    Data Files: After the plugin has been loaded for the first time, a "supplysign" data folder will be created in the bukkit plugins folder with two files in it: items.csv and kits.yml. You can customize these files to add new kits or modify item names. Use "/supplysign reload" to load your changes without restarting the server. NOTE: When editing these files, make sure the format doesn't change. On Windows, use something like Wordpad. There has been a report that OpenOffice can change the files in a way that breaks the plugin.

    Config File: Used to configure the ShowErrorsInClient, FixSignOnSignGlitch, and AllowNonOpAccess options. Check out the (automatically created) config.yml file for more info.

    Screenshots:

    Thanks:
    This plugin was originally based on the [Free] sign code from Essentials by Zenexer. Without his hard work there would be no SupplySign plugin. Thanks!
    Also thanks to vitaminmoo for testing this plugin and developing the kits.yml format.

    Version 0.7
    • Initial release to the world.



    If you have problems: Check the diagnostic messages from SupplySign on the server console. You should see something like this when the plugin starts up, or when you use /supplysign reload :

    08:01:07 [INFO] SupplySign loaded 1092 items from items.csv.​
    08:01:07 [INFO] SupplySign loaded 16 kits from kits.yml.​

    If you see something like this:

    07:55:53 [INFO] SupplySign error: while parsing a flow sequence; expected ',' or ']', but got StreamEnd​
    07:55:53 [INFO] SupplySign loaded 1092 items from items.csv.​
    07:55:53 [INFO] SupplySign loaded 0 kits from kits.yml.​

    Then there is a typo in your kits.yml file and zero kits were loaded because of it. Unfortunately Yaml is a bit touchy about typos.

    If you can't figure out what's happening, post a capture of the SupplySign console output and attach your items.csv and kits.yml files to a your post so I can try and reproduce the problem. A screenshot of your sign could be useful as well.

    ZachBora: Spoken like a true coder :)

    However, it does need to be updated to support the latest development Bukkit builds. I'm working on it..

    It's what I do for a living.
    I've updated some of my plugins for 1.1R5 and one of them ceased to work :(. I'll need to figure out what I broke converting to the new listeners.

    I just uploaded SupplySign version 1.9.2 with updated event hooks for latest Bukkit builds (should work with 1.1-R5 when released). It is awaiting administrator approval but should be available soon. Go to http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/supplysign/ to get it.

    No ma'am, and also the permissions won't work according to all the users in my server that aren't OP.

    I made all the signs, but you have to be OP to use them. I added supplysign.access to the specific group (groupmanager) but says "Err: You dont have access to this supplysign". I tried the to turn the accessifnotop in the config, but still no go.

    Thanks,

    V1.9.3
    I tried this on our live server, and on a second test server, and I have the same 2 problems every time.

    1. The sign attaches to a dispenser, but the sign is blank...
    2. Instead of an infinite supply of (anything, tested mostly with logs (17)) a stack of the item appears in the dispenser (not infinite, when it runs out it's all gone).
