    Plugin category: Fun

    Suggested name: Earthquake Creator

    What I want:
    The earthquake plugin should create a ravine.
    The size of ravine is configured by the magnitude, but the rate of blocks being destroyed is configured by the time (minutes)
    The earthquake should happen beneath the player or could be configured to set off at specific coordinates.
    The damage should correspond to the magnitude (see below) and will damage anyone within 30 block radius of the ravine.
    Ravine is not allowed to break bedrock but it will breaks any other blocks.
    The damage corresponds to if they are near it and it could also print
    a message in chat saying "[Warning] Earthquake has started at x,y,z"
    Config:
    Magnitude scale from 1-10 (richter scale)
    The rate should be minimum 0.10(configurable)
    Damage:
    Magnitude 1 will do 0.5 of a heart worth of damage per 4 seconds.
    The damage increases by 0.5 per magnitude.
    Scaling:
    The starting length of ravine at magnitude of 1 is 40 blocks in length.
    The length increases by 40 per magnitude of 1.
    Visuals:
    The ravine should be created from inside out, so the middle blocks first get's destroyed and it continues to open at the rate.
    The creation of ravine should go in layers, first the top layer and it should finish
    The rate (mins) should configure how fast the ravine is created.
    Suggested effect of it could be that players get slowness and nausia

    Ideas for commands: /earthquake "magnitude" "time" "x" "y"

    Ideas for permissions: player.earthquake

    When I'd like it by: Next week

    Version of the plugin: 1.2.5
    Tekkit compatible? Yes

    Thanks for reading, hope you like it. :)
    PS - If anyone want to have a go at coding, you are welcome.

    That's not a problem.
    The rate of blocks being destroyed could be configured.
    Fast formation to slow formation:)

    EDIT: Someone else can do this.

    giving players a potion effect of slowness and nausia would be interesting too (within a distance of course) this would also feel more realistic - however nausia/dizyness is the best i can think of to be realistic
     
  6. i agree with penguiben...

    This might be what you want. Just revert to the last version that was stated to have 1.2.5 compatibility in the description if you want a Tekkit-compatible build.

    I believe Icyene told me he was working on something like this :)

    Earthquakes are already in Storm with very similar implementation, unless you meant adding more features. Magnitude is implemented, but completely random (you can't select a magnitude if you spawn it with /earthquake).

    Oh, I missed that when reading the features list. He showed it to me one time and I was pretty impressed.

    It's not that easy.
    The plugin owner refused to revert it to 1.2.5 because there was a problem with him and bukkit crew.
    Also, i'm not sure how to revert, because the earthquake one was features in the latest update.
    Quote from Icynene
    Q: Will you add Tekkit/1.2.5 support?

    A: No. Storm had it 'till 0.1.0: I had to rip it out because of Bukkit's controversial "Refactor all NMS/OBC libs" commit.

    What about the incompatiblity with 1.2.5?

    ...Which is why I said to use the last version with 1.2.5 support?
