[REQ]Game economy permissions purchases[FORMATTED]

Plugin category: Economy/Permissions​

​

Suggested name: PermissionsShop​

​

A bit about me: I'm a server owner that is looking for exciting plugins.​

​

What I want: I would like to have gifts for donations to my server be in the servers currency only(iConomy), but let players purchase specified permission groups that will give them features they currently receive with our donations system. Ideally you can set how long these permission are available after purchase(30 days, 365 days, 7 days)​

For example: If someone wants FireLord plugin features, they will donate $5 to the site. They will receive 100,000 in game cash. From there, in-game, they can pull up a permissions list where they can buy FireLord with their in-game cash.​

​

Ideas for commands: ​

/PermissionsShopList <page> - a list of permissions for sale with their price, and description(pulled from a config file which include what permission groups are for sale)​

/PermissionsShopBuy <id>- Purchase a permission with am ID​

/PermissionsShopAddGroup <groupname> <time it lasts> <Price> <"Description"> - Ability to add permissions groups in-game​

/PermissionsShopRemove <groupname> - The group will no longer be for sale in the Permissions Shop​

​

Ideas for permissions: PermissionsShop.Buy, PermissionsShop.List, PermissionsShop.AddGroup(admin), PermissionsShop.RemoveGroup(admin)​

​

Willing to pay up to: $10 - I would be happy to be the first to donate to this.​

​

When I'd like it by: Soon, we could really use this before we roll out our changes to our server.​

​

Similar plugin requests: PayToBuild, PermissionsShop, ExpSkills(cumbersome), PermissionIconomy​

Edit: I think I did the tags wrong.

 

I'm on it.

Just to summarize:
You want a sort of 'credit system' by which people can buy permissions.

 

Not exactly. I want a shop that people can use their in-game currency (iConomy) to purchase permission groups.

The ultimate goal is to simplify our donation system and give people that earn the money the hardway(killing mobs or selling gold) a method to eventually be able to buy a permission group with out needing to donate.

 

@Machete.Panda
If you have some problems with ExpSkills, you should tell me what I need to improve.^^

 

I don't work well with the iConomy API - find someone else.

 

This plugin is still up for grabs to a talented developer. The previous interested party dropped.

Just too cumbersome. Im looking for something simple. All the bells and whistles look kewl if I needed them. But I really dont want to figure it all out and do all this setup for something so simple. Thanks though.

lol, you and everyone else. Poor iConomy. Thanks

 

Hmmm I was thinking... is this something you could do with gold ingots?

 

the iConomy API is easy.

If you're wanting something to just add a group when someone pays cash that's pretty simple for me to do XD

 

If your interested in doing it, just PM me the project page and I'll help test and donate.

 

I would definitely something as cool as this on my server and I would donate for this too. Let me know if its picked up!

 

It's now on my to-do list.
Would it be ok if I put it into my bPermissionsSigns plugin? (so they click a sign and optionally pay cash to rank up)

 

For me its going to be a pivotal part of allowing the players to manage their own permissions groups while also reducing permissions management by allowing me to set the amount of time they have it and it expiring. Ideally they can also access the "permissions buy menu" with a command anywhere on the server.

I would like a command but I also see the benefit of them seeing a sign for it and being able to 'get it' right away. Can there be both a command and sign?

EDIT: oh... and I just realized bpermissions is not short for the official bukkit permissions, right? I have the offical Bukkit Permissions. Will Permissions Shop work with official bukkit permissions? I would need that.

 

That'd be a no, since the official bukkit permissions is pretty much dead

 

really? Every plugin on my server is using it.

 

Really?
Fair enough.

They might just be using Superperms? (which most managers use these days)

 

Is there a bridge to bPermissions for bukkit permissions?

 

To the api? For getting/setting groups?
No.
For checking permissions, no need for a bridge, it's superperms.

 

hmm... So what if it worked with Superperms seeing as there is a bridge to bukkit permissions for that?

 

bPermissions is a superperms manager.

 

So I guess it would work correct?

 

if all you're doing is permissions yes

 

Kewl! Are you still up for this?

 

It's on my todo list

 

if @codename_B gives up the project or becomes busy I will make this. But it would need Vault.

 

@Machete.Panda
I still don't know what your exact problem with ExpSkills is.

If you tell me I could improve my plugin.
Actually it sounds like "your plugin has to may features"...

 

me is busy

 

BTW when I was talking about that officail bukkit permissions, I meant this one http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/ad...fficial-default-groups-plugin-1-0-1-r1.26785/

Someone informed me that you may have thought I was speaking of another.

Anyway, let me know if you need any testing help. Im excited about this. Finally a simple to use permissions shop system.

 

No, I know you mean that one.

And I will let you know when I need testing help trust me on this

 

I dont know if your both working on this together, but I was speaking with Syd and worked out an idea on the config file. I dont know if it would help with your ideas, but here it is:

Code:

general:
    use_economy: true
    time_values_in: days #you can pick seconds, minutes, hours, days
PermissionShop: #Below are the permission groups for sale in the shop
    VIP1: #This name must match the group name in your permissions file
        cost: 200000
        description: Fire Lord capabilities.
        time: 30
        nodes:
            - 'foo.bar'
    VIP2:
        cost: 100000
        description: Teleporter capabilities.
        time: 30
        nodes:
            - 'foo.bar'

Just an idea of a lay out for a lay-man like me. Included is an hi-jacked idea for adding specific permissions nodes.

 

I'll take that into account when I design mine
