Make glowstone lanterns, daytime glass & nighttime glowstone
Version: v0.6
With this plugin Glowstone Lanterns you can make lanterns, when it's going dark the glass of the lanterns will change in glowstone and when it's daytime it will change in glass again. The great thing is that you don't need to place a full lantern but only a glass/glowstone block, so you can use it for everyting. This plugin is very usefull for a large city to light it up, that looks really cool that the lanterns will change in glowstone! You can also place prebuilt lanterns, so that's really usefull if you want to plase a lot of lanterns in a little time. You can enable glowstone lanterns with /gl, when you place a glass or a glowstone block it is marked as a glowstone lanterns, this block will change to glowstone if it is night and to glass if it is daytime. If you use /gl l 1 you will enable prebuilt glowstone lanterns, if you place a glass or a glowstone block there will apear the prebuilt glowstone lantern you selected right there. There prebuilt lanterns are in external files, so you can make your own prebuilt lanterns and share them with other pelople.

Is there a way you could add how MANY to update per x time? I could probably get away with 25 lights going off every tick, my server is pretty fast.

Strange, I really need to figure out what the problem it, it might even be a function in bukkit wich is changed, I don't know. I can't help you for now, I'm sorry.

albertsboy Nov 07, 2012 at 12:40 UTC - 0 likesI was wondering if there is a issue with the plugin working with multiverse. I run a server with multiverse and my ticks in my config file, even after i change it to match sunrise and set in the main world were this plugin is mainly used, end up not matching after a few hours. And none of my admins or other owners have changed the time according to them. I didn't know if a time change in a seperate multiverse world would cause the config file ticks to be off with the main world.

Yes it works, BUT you've to change something!
I saw Glowstone Lanterns running on an 1.4.2 server. Now the only problem is that it looks like the day and time ticks are changed, I mean the time scale is different than before. This causes the problem that the glowstone will turn into g lass at night. You can easily fix it. With the in-game comamnd /time set <value> you could check when the sunset starts, remember that value, you can change the default sunset time in the config file of glowstone lanterns to the new value, you've to do the same thing with night->day, I hope you understand my message ;)

No this feature is not available yet. I'll add this probably in an upcomming version, since I like the idea ;)

Darunia18 Oct 28, 2012 at 03:17 UTC - 0 likesAre you able to place glowstone and type in a command of some sorts and then punch the glowstone to make it into a lantern instead of having to turn it on, place it, and turn it off? I got the impression that this isn't possible with the current version, but correct me if I'm wrong. If this is already available, then I will not hesitate to download the plugin.

Hey, I didn't saw your message, sorry. I wasn't able to add the code yet, I'm very busy because a lot of my other plugins need little updates too, similair to this. I'll try to make an update/patch as soon as possible.
