Plugin category: Mech ? Suggested name: WorldGuardLabel A bit about me: 20, know year 1 C++, been running a server for about 10 months, primary technical user with files and plugin related business. What I want: I'm looking for a way to edit/append user's names/ranks by 'detecting' which worldguard region they own, or which region it has a parent to. Summary/tl;dr Plugin sees predefined WG region name's owner, adds a configurable tag onto owner name without overwriting nickname/PEX rank. For example, Jake owns MadCity, and John owns HappyHouse1 in HappyCity. (Gimme a break here, I'm original) Plugin config says: Code: HappyCity : &b[H] MadCity : &4[M] etc Worldguard config says: Code: HappyCity: type: cuboid min: {x: 157.0, y: 45.0, z: 879.0} max: {x: 236.0, y: 127.0, z: 991.0} priority: 0 flags: {pvp: deny, mob-spawning: deny} owners: {} members: {} MadCity: type: cuboid min: {x: 157.0, y: 45.0, z: 879.0} max: {x: 236.0, y: 127.0, z: 991.0} priority: 0 flags: {pvp: deny, mob-spawning: deny} owners: [Jake] members: {} HappyHouse1: type: cuboid min: {x: 204.0, y: 0.0, z: 964.0} max: {x: 216.0, y: 127.0, z: 979.0} priority: 3000 flags: {} owners: [John] members: {} parent: HappyCity So, the plugin Sees the city name in its config, looks for it in the world/plugins/worldguard/worlds/world/regions.yml file, checks for owner of the city, and would make Jake into &4[M]Jake. Then it would continue searching and check if {city_name} is part of the "parent: {city_name}" section. If it is, check the owner and make (in this case) John into &b[H]John. I run essentialsChat for the prefix compatibility, but also run PEX for pre-existing prefixes. The only trouble I'm having so far is connecting some way to sense worldguard owners. When the owner is added, we could /pex user (name) prefix "whateverTheyAlreadyAre&b[H]&f" but thats a lot of effort per house bought and sold, and also overwrites any rank they get from promotions within PEX. Another idea was factions, but thats a lot of plugin for a fairly simple edit to a name, not to mention no relation to worldguard at all. I hope someone feels willing to approach this, and I'll happily expand on how I'd see it working from a coder's point of view. I know year 1 C++ so the logic seems possible, I just can't code it into a Bukkit Plugin. Summary/tl;dr Plugin sees predefined WG region name's owner, adds a configurable tag onto owner name without overwriting nickname/PEX rank. Ideas for commands: None needed, auto senses the owners. Probably on startup is when it would do its assignments. EDIT: Unless a /wgl reload command could be used to change config options/force an update of the owner checking. Ideas for permissions: None needed When I'd like it by: Whenever possible, I've had bad experiences with lazy developers (his words not mine) so if you're working, please let me know I shouldn't keep looking and insult your time already spent. Similar plugin requests: None found? Devs who might be interested in this: I'm not familiar with any developers in this community yet, nor am I bold enough to enlist one or assume to know they'd be interested. Thank you for any consideration and time. Formatted, and a few minor details, like when it should run its update, added.
