DeathTpPlus

DeathTpPlus announces a death with a random message based on the death cause and allows you to teleport to the point of death It can also create a TombStone at the place you died to let you save your inventory (aka DeadMansChest).You can also create a tomb sign which can be used as respawn point and as a place of information of how often you died and what your last death cause was.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to some issues with yaml you can get the following error: unacceptable character '?' " in the log, The fix is to remove the ä atm from the default messages and if you have custom messages to remove any of them using special characters. Sorry about that!

How does it work?

Take a look at how it works.. Videos

Also take a look at this picture to know what I'm talking about in the config file and on these pages AllTheStuff

Based on the original plugin from lonelydime. Integrates a fork of furt from cenotaph and tomb from dark_balor.

PLEASE NOTE: Mung3r is taken over from here, he did already help me a lot and is willing to keep this plugin updated. THANKS a lot

Don't want one of the features? No worries! Just disable it in the config file and it'll be like that feature isn't in the plugin at all! The file IOs aren't called and neither are the methods used for those features. Worried about performance? Don't be!

FAQ

  • Q: Colors are not working correctly in messages, what is wrong?
    A: If you are using Essentials Chat turn that off, otherwise you need to live with it or ask Essentials Teams why that happens.
  • Q: What does "expected <block end>, but found Scalar" in my log messages mean?
    A: Probably you forgot to use \" or ' to get a "
  • Q: I see a killed by X message but I did use /suicide from essentials or similar.
    A: This is a bug of the other plugin not setting the death cause correctly. Nothing I can do. Sorry.
  • Q: If I die in a cave or in nether and use /deathtp I will teleport back to the place I died but on top of the world
    A: Change teleportToHighestBlock: true to false but read the comments first in the config.
  • Q: Could you support RegionPlugin XYZ?
    A: Not until a general API similar to Vault for economics comes out. I will support region plugins I use myself.
  • Q: Can I help you?
    A: Sure, you can try the most recent dev-build... should be in sync with the github issues!!!

    I use the [Tomb] sign but they seem to break from time to time is it possible for the plugin to scan for the sign when its clicked and reactivate them, havent figured out yet why it happens. I notice some other plugins have this behaviour ?

    I too am having the same problem as adoggy. Didn't start doing it until someone died on the server (myself).. At some point afterwards, it started churning out that error every so many seconds/minutes afterward, and is continuing to do so. I did make it back to my chest/rip sign and get my gear, if that matters.. Happened once before on someone else's death, and if memory serves me, I shut down the server, deleted that file, and restarted which solved the error being displayed, but something is not right.. I (like adoggy I'm guessing) am running CB1.4.7

    @kdthehun: Go

    Ive been using http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/deathchest/ for the chest part and deathtpplus for clickable sign to return to death location ( but this has always been buggy for me breaks at odd times not sure why ) just had a look at 1.5.1 and it seems to work, still waiting for some more non-bukkit mods to get updated im using mcpc-plus

    I too am waiting for DeathTPPlus to have a fully working update.
    Right now we're using DeadMan's Chest, though my donators are missing their /back to death/dynmap location features

    The latest Dev version still drops all items instead of placing them in the chest... Anyone know a good substitute?

    Well when Don left, he said:

    "PLEASE NOTE: Mung3r is taken over from here, he did already help me a lot and is willing to keep this plugin updated. THANKS a lot"

    But Mung3r hasn't spoken to us since that point (or maybe never) so maybe someone should PM him. It looks like he works on Vault and has been online just 2 days ago :)

    Need a 1.5.1 update! Would be a shame to see this awesome plugin to become inactive. The New API and whatnot in 1.5.1 have made it so the plugin can no longer grab the items and stuff them into chests. The chest is created, but items are dropped. If i knew coding i would offer to help, but alas coding is just not meant for me.

Limited DeathTp to use only once
