NoSpawnEggs
News 1.27.2013
Hello,
Unfortunately, I've lost interest in plugin development, and am no longer able to reliably keep plugins up to date with the most recent versions of Bukkit.
However, not all plugin developers are the same. I'm aware of one plugin that is very similar to mine, is updated to 1.4.7, and has even more features. I haven't tried it out, but looking at its description, it looks like exactly what you're looking for as a replacement to NoSpawnEggs:
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/creativecontrol/
I'm glad you found my plugin to be useful in previous times, however, as I can no longer be reliable in updating it, using this plugin would most likely be the best choice.
Happy server-ing!

Prevent players on a server from using spawner eggs, chicken eggs, Snow and Iron Golems, dispenser spawns, XP bottles, fire charges, boats, minecarts, Ender Pearls and Eyes, and more!
Do you want to run a Creative server, but hate the idea of any user being able to cause what could become infinite lag with Spawn Eggs, Chicken Eggs and Snow Golems? This plugin fixes this problem. You can choose to only allow people with a certain permission to perform certain actions, and it is fully configurable.

Bugs
If you find a bug, create a ticket. If your ticket isn't responded to within a reasonable amount of time, post it in the comments. Always include the Stacktrace (if there is one) and tell me how I can reproduce it!
@GooseMonkey97
My mistake, then, I need an additional plugin to block non-dispenser versions of those things as well. I have the full version though. *salute*
Great plugin anyway!
@Original_bluegoblin
First... which version of the plugin are you using? Fire charge and XP bottle blocking is only in the Full version.
Next... this plugin only blocks fire charges coming out of dispensers, not right-clicking to create fire like a flint and steel. Does the dispense blocking seem broken?
People are using Fire Charges to make fire all over my creative world... doesn't this protect against that? Also it seems XP bottles are spammable by just about anyone as well. I'm not sure what to do as this seems to be designed to address those problems, but isn't. Worldguard doesn't do squat either.
@Aangiix3
If I can somehow figure out how to hook into WorldGuard or Residence, then possibly. It'd be a lot easier for both me and the users of this plugin to just have a flag to set on regions for Spawn Eggs, Golems, etc.
This is the most useful thing ever!! Thank you!!
Can you make it that it only doesnt work in a specific area?
@HeavenlyMC
Did you download the full version? I tested and these both seem to work just fine.
XP orb blocking and eye of ender blocking doesn't work for 1.2.5R0.1
@GooseMonkey97
Thanks for adding light and moderate. Im guessing they dont lag as much.
I wish people would look before they click 'Download'... it seems that since I uploaded the Light version last, most people are choosing that one as the latest version, and I'm afraid that they might end up wondering why 80% of the features are disabled...
...either that, or a lot of people prefer the lightweight version to the heavier ones.
I'm not sure how it happened but all of a sudden it seems to work! :0
Perhaps some other plugin took priority (if that's even possible), i'm not sure.
Oh well... if i know the precise cause i'll let you know (helpful for others facing the same problems).
Thanks for the kick-ass plugin dude! ;-)

@GooseMonkey97
Will do! I'll also try some other plugins to see how they respond.
Thank you for creating/updating and sharing your plugin with the bukkit-family! :-)
Best regards,

I couldn't reproduce this problem. Most likely, there is a Bukkit bug, because with such an unstable build (there are literally 6 builds right now with the current version) these small problems tend to happen. Try again after some problems get worked out with Bukkit; if the problem persists, create a ticket.
Hi,
I'm running the latest CB dev build + latest vault / bPermissions and NoSpawnEggs 1.6.
When throwing (spawn)eggs i see those warnings but the mobs still spawn :S
(this is while being in creative / gamemode 1)
This also counts for all other disabled/blocked entities :-/
(the config was not touched since the default settings are correct)

@TheSandwichMakr
Well, blocking an entity ID only prevents using Spawn Eggs to spawn that item. Dropping items is a feature I could add, but there are other plugins like this and this that block item drops.
@GooseMonkey97
well I meant item drops but I stopped using the plugin since it caused quite a bit of lag. great plugin though. Ill add it to my server again after a hardware upgrade. could I just block enitiy id 1 in the entity blocking list and also entity id 2 for xp?
Sorry for the recent lack of updates/communication.. I've been away from my computer for some time. I'll update to the recommended build soon, along with some other things.
@NikoKun
Thanks for the feedback! I have an idea on how to make this less bloat-y in the future...
@TheSandwichMakr
Do you mean all items? If so, try out WorldGuard... I don't plan on adding blocking for all items when this plugin already does it so well.
@chaseoes
Possibly.
Could you add the option to log to the console when a player spawns a mob?
Could you add an option to disable items in specified worlds?
Well, love the new features, although it could be considered bloat.. Since the plugin is becoming a general entity-spawn manager, rather than just an egg manager. heh
Not to say it shouldn't.. This plugin has some very useful methods to block/limit various things. So maybe renaming and making it a more general plugin is a good idea. Might also think about added count-limits on spawns, or even natural spawn rate limits. I dono.
Either way, great plugin. I love being able to limit direct spawning from eggs, while still leaving some conditions enabled, like dispensers. =D
EDIT: Slight bug, it seems that even with full * permissions, and even Op rank, I can't spawn Golems in the creative maps. Even with the settings configured so that it SHOULD work, at least for me, it's not. Survival maps seem to work fine tho.. My "onlyCreative:" are false, and regardless, shouldn't OP/* be allowed to anywhere?
