HomeBlock

HomeBlock is a plugin that supplies a different home system then the current command systems; it adds blocks to do this. Those blocks are used to let players mark their homes and to teleport to it. HomeBlock is a plugin using Spout, so Spout is required to use this plugin and Spoutcraft is required for your users to be able to see the blocks.

How does it work?

To use HomeBlock a player should place a HomeBlock and a HomeTeleporter. Now he can set his home by rightclicking the HomeBlock and can use the HomeTeleporter to be teleported back to his home; he will be teleported right atop of his HomeBlock.

Recipes

HomeBlock uses the following recipes for the HomeBlock and the HomeTeleporter:

HomeBlock:

HomeTeleporter:

Recipes may be different on a server, they can all be changed by an admin

Second home

HomeBlock also supports a second home for each player, to get a second home he has to build a HomeBlock+ and teleport to it with a HomeTeleporter+.

The recipes for those blocks are the following:

HomeBlock+:

HomeTeleporter+:

Same as HomeBlock+ but now with a HomeTeleporter instead of a HomeBlock in the middle.

Even more (or less) Homes

As a server owner/administrator you can use the config.yml file to add any number of HomeSystems to your server. You can also use the config file to remove HomeSystems or to completely change HomeSystems.

See the config explanation page to find out how the config file of this plugin works.

By default (or by example) there are three HomeSystems added to the default config file, including the two homes mentioned above and a third one which can be created the same way as the HomeBlock+ system, but now using the + blocks in the recipe instead of the normal ones.

RandomHome

As a less useful feature there is also a RandomHome block. This block will teleport you to a random HomeBlock on your server when rightclicking it. This block is not recommended for a more serious server, because it can teleport players to the home of any person and it is not really safe to use (you could end up on a platform above a lava lake if someone decided to build a HomeBlock there :P). The RandomHome block is available for every homesystem (if set in the config file) and only teleports you to homes that are of the HomeSystem the RandomHomeBlock is in.

The recipe for this block is the same as a HomeTeleporter, but with an enderman pearl instead of the diamond.

HomeScroll

Another optional feature is the HomeScroll. A HomeScroll will teleport you to your own home on consuming and can be created at a workbench by placing a HomeTeleporter in the middle surrounded by paper, this will result in 8 HomeScrolls.

Cooldown times

By default there is a cooldown time for the HomeScroll; after a HomeScroll has been activated a player must wait until the cooldown time has passed. Those cooldown times are optional and can also be used for the HomeTeleporter and the RandomHome blocks.
