Bukkit

How would one go about using an event such as PlayerChangedWorldEvent? I've tried just about every way I can think of to bind it, add it, etc, but nothing works. I'm trying to have the event cancel if a player would be sent to a specific world, or at least send them back out of it.

@UnwrittenFun

Understandable. However my next question becomes is it possible to write an LUA Plugin that uses Lukkit that will hook into those APIs? As opposed to adding generic support for it like the original question.

Is there anyway to hook this into the cauldron/forge API as well? So that you can get program full plugins that work with mods? Or mater of fact hook it into any other pugin/mod API like GriefPrevention or Botania

Okay, let's get started.

Read the wiki and make sure that syntax function is available for your version of Lukkit.

Getting the latest version of Lukkit is the best way.

Don't use a variable if your assigning the function to a table. Tables are only used for more then one function or item for a module script.

To fix your module script problem:

Inside of your module script

local function test()
     print("meow")
end

return test()

Main.lua

-- Require via variable if wanted if you want to execute with the variable.
-- Require without variable for pure function calling.

local module = require("script")

module.test() -- Should print "meow"

Hello. I tried to use your example:

events.add("blockBreak", function(event)
  if not event:getPlayer():isOp() then
    broadcast(stringOf(format.RED) .. "You are not allowed to break blocks")
    event:setCancelled(true)
  end
end)

But I got error: [21:18:25 WARN]: [Lukkit] @D:\DATA\Servers\MS17-18W\plugins\Lukkit\1.lua:1 attem pt to index ? (a nil value)

@GlassOrganization
Thanks for the reply.
I'm new to the Lua file including, since the other game that uses Lua doesn't require me to include files. :c

Using:

• Lukkit v1.0-alpha5b
• craftbukkit-1.7.9

Heres what I tried:

-- main.lua
local testLoad = require( "test" )
testLoad.testFunc()

-- test.lua
function testFunc()
    print( "test.lua works!" )
end

and

-- main.lua
local testLoad = require( "scripts.test" )
testLoad.testFunc()

-- scripts/test.lua
local T = {}

local function T.testFunc()
    print( "test.lua works!" )
end

return T

and other similar trys, but none of them work, always got "module XXX not found"

@greenteaf

Tell me your version of Lukkit. Can you also show me what you did for the require function? Like for example:

• require(syntax)
• hi = require(syntax)
• local hi = require(syntax)

Does it support 'require' or something else that can import other .lua files?

I'v tried many ways, but it always returns this:

Caused by: org.luaj.vm2.LuaError: @D:/Server/Minecraft/plugins/Lukkit/MobLoot/main.lua:4 module 'scripts.test' not found: scripts.test
05:56:18 	no field package.preload['scripts.test']
05:56:18 	scripts/test.lua
05:56:18 	no class 'scripts.test'

I'd like to know if we can use others library like the effectLib or the barApi and if we can, how is it possible.

Thanks.

This plugin has been giving me a lot of trouble. I don't know what's wrong. Not a single API function is working, except for broadcast(), but it only works when I change it to server.broadcast(). Otherwise, and for all other API functions I get an "Error: Attempt to call nil". And I just tried storing the .lua file in a subdirectory, and now the plugin won't see it at all. I'm sure I'm not doing anything wrong because I copied the examples directly from this page, and they didn't work. Please help! I want to be able to use this plugin!

Hello everyone, I was wandering thrugh plugins and this one makes me feel... let's say feel satisfied.

I haven't read whole wiki yet, but I wanna post some ideas: 1. Access to create some little HUD from effect list, with ablity to loop messages. Example: When player is going to check his vault.money, he is going thrugh command to know his balance, I wanna write script that creates emty, infinte effect with name "Money" and duration with string equal to players balance. Loop useless here but maybe in future I wanna do some pvp server and looped effect will be good for ranking, that's I wanna write script that makes effect with player name that have most kills and: effect name: <playername_with_most_kills> duration: <no_of_kills> after 1s: effect name: <playername_with_2nd_most_kills> duration: =||= and... this loop will be till the last player on the server.

2. I wanna see some fancy stuff like integer with idle time, string of weapon with most kills, "punch" log like I punching someone, and I takes his playername => this can be used to create some stick thats teleorting someone to the spawn...

Have nice time, Daniel

How can I get a player's inventory?

If possible, could you create a backport to 1.6.4? I'm running Bukkit 1.6.4 and unable to upgrade for various reasons. The plugin looks amazing and I'd really like to use it. Writing a plugin in Lua is a lot less work than writing it in Java. Hopefully you can create a backport, thanks in advance.

EDIT: Nevermind. I ended up just coding the plugin in Java.

@UnwrittenFun

oops!

player = server.getPlayer("Lord_Cuddles") returns the error:

bad argument: userdata expected, got string

is it possible to write Minigames with this?!
