    I run a small server and hate to set up those annoying signs that advertise what ranks there are. I hope to change that with the new Rank Info plugin. Basically what it does is you type a command called /Rank that displays all the different ranks. Each rank has an id (1-10) So lets just say that Steve wanted to see what rank was above him. He would type /Rank to see the ranks and ids, then he would type /Rank 2 which would display the text in the config file.
    I don't think this plugin should be that hard to make and surely an experienced developer could develop this in probably under an hour. I am not much of a developer at all, in fact I just now started. Please make this for me! :) Oh, and if you do publish this please give me credit.
    ~~~RANK INFO~~~
    Commands:
    • /Rank (rankinfo.rank)
    • /Rank 1 (rankinfo.rank.1)
    • /Rank 2 (rankinfo.rank.2)
    • ..../Rank 10 (rankinfo.rank.10)
    Permissions:
    • rankinfo.rank (Displays all Ranks)
    • rankinfo.rank.1 (Displays info for rank 1)
    • rankinfo.rank.2 (Displays info for rank 2)
    • ...rankinfo.rank.10 (Displays info for rank 10
    Config:

    Do you want it so each /rank is a different rank? And /ranks is all of the ranks?

    Example:
    A user types /ranks, it displays every rank defined in the config file,
    and when they type /rank 1, it displays the first rank defined in the config?

    /ranks displays all the ranks.
    /rank [id] displays the info about the selected rank

    ... You can use any custom chat output plugin (/help, MCDocs, etc.) and make an alias to the command with CommandHelper. That's what I've done, and it works perfectly.

    Ok, I was just saying that this can be accomplished with an existing solution.

    Personally, I wouldn't want to waste my time working on something that already has a decent solution... But I guess some do. /me shrugs

    One moment, I am currently finishing your plugin.

    I have completed your plugin, BbyRanks.

    Commands:
    /ranks - Displays all of the ranks
    /rank <1-10> - Gives more detail of the rank. The id for a rank is found in /ranks

    How to set up the config:
    Code:
    # BbyRanks
    # Add your own Rank_X's up to 10
    Rank_1: Guest
    Rank_1_Desc: This rank cannot build or break anything.
    Rank_2: Owner
    Rank_2_Desc: This is the supreme ruler of the server!
    Just keep on adding "Rank_3: Moderator" and below it "Rank_3_Desc: This rank moderates the server." You can add up to 10.

    Download:
    - <Edit by Moderator: Redacted mediafire url>

    Source Code:
    - Pastebin

    I deserve cookies, for making this plugin that could easily of been done with another plugin.

    THANKS!

    We have a problem, The ranks in the config will not update on the server after reloading. It will still display the default text.

    This is a great idea! I had to do the same dumb thing of putting up signs of each rank. This idea is good because it gives server owners a easier way to tell the newbies about ranks instead of the newbies asking "what rank am I?" and "what ranks are there?" If some one makes this I will totally download and use it on my server.

    He probably didn't upload it to BukkitDev. As I said above:
    Most people have already found the solution to this.


    Or, maybe he plans to, just hasn't had time.

    Is there a Plugin that's just like it? If he did make a plugin what's the name of it?

    Regarding 'Is there a Plugin that's just like this', yes, there certainly are. Any custom output plugin (MCDocs, any help plugin) combined with a command alias plugin will give you an elegant solution. Apparently not good enough for the OP...

    I won't be uploading it to BukkitDev. Reason being, as you said, there are so many other ways of doing this. And, maybe even better. I could make the config much better than it is, but I don't want to spend a terrible amount of time on this.
