GoldRush
GoldRush lets your users pan for gold in all watery areas that contain sand, clay, dirt, and gravel below-water! Using the custom item* you can make a gold pan, which has a pseudo-durability (default of 10 uses). Gold drop possibilities are configurable via the configuration file, the lower the number the lower the chance of it dropping, however "-1" will turn the block off.
Footnote: Crafting recipe is as follows:
The Crazy Lab
Defualt ranked blocks:
- Clay (The highest)
- Gravel
- Dirt
- Sand (The least)
Warning!
If gold will effect your server economy, be sure to BlackList the cauldron item and sell it in a shop. The bowl should not effect anything, due to the inefficiency of the method. I do not recommend this plugin for Tekkit if you use EquivalentExchange, as gold is worth a very high amount of EMC.
Requirements
- Permissions plugin (GroupManager, PEX, etc.)
- Permission Node - goldrush.pan
Future Improvements
- Option for pre-defined areas to pan
- Maximum amount of gold panned per block
- Timed spawning of items in cauldrons (similar to rain filling a cauldron)
Announcements
- Added pseudo-durability to the bowl item
How to pan for gold
- Build a gold pan
- Find a lake-bed/river-bed with: dirt, sand, gravel, or clay blocks
- Right click with a gold pan

In development is an official Gold Rush server for all of my plugins to be shown off in a (hopefully) interesting fashion.

@sehunpark
I already changed that value, as I agree that it was far too high. Just waiting to be re-approved. Also, the gold that is gained is only nuggets, so nine are needed to make a single ingot.
Thank you very much for the awesome feedback!
A 1 in 5 chance is a pretty lot.That's 20% chance that you would get gold and gold is normally extremely rare.Can you add a config file to set the percentage?
@ludo0777
Took your suggestion, though I'm using the bowl item instead. I also adjusted some of the yields, they're now based off of which block you make use of, clay yields the most, then gravel, then dirt, and finally sand.
Let me know if you have any other suggestions!
@Joe_Garret
I just submitted a new version with a bug fix as well as a permissions node! Should be accepted within a few hours. The node is goldpanning.pan
Glad ya' like it! Sounds like a very fun server.
Thank you!
Very good Plugin. Its perfect for my Server. 1866 Wild West Server. Is there a Permission note ? i want give this Permission only the Golddigger.
@YoshiGenius
Thank you very much! Feel free to test it out, and let me know what you think! I'm extremely eager for any feedback you may have!
Great idea!
@ludo0777
In theory, yes. However, with the cauldron item, the amount of durability that it requires to break is, from what I can tell, a fair bit less than dirt, sand, gravel, etc.
Let me know your thoughts, I'm very interested in any feedback you may have!
Thanks!
Wouldn't it be better if when you break a dirt, sand or gravel block which is under at least one block of water while holding a cauldron it may drop gold or something...
