LightningRod
LightningRods
New Version Here!
Ever wanted to have a Harry Potter styled duel in minecraft? Or maybe just wanted call down lightning on your foe? How about a special wand/rod that lets you do all those big jumps you could only dream of?
Well, now you can! Grab a Blaze rod, grab some ingredients, and craft yourself one of the many Rods. Then go use it however you feel like using it!
Basically, LightningRod adds magical wands/staffs to minecraft, in the simplest form possible!
How It Works
I've added a few new recipes to the game for all the Rods, all you need to do is craft a rod, and then right click to use its power (It will use up 1+ rod), not too hard, eh?
Rods
These are the Rods that this plugin currently has, I will be adding more, my goal is 50 Rods!
Lightning Rod
What else would the first one be?!?! This Rod, when right clicked, will call to the gods for help and they will send down a bolt of lightning, with a max range of 30 blocks (configurable). ID: lightning
Health Rod
This is a pretty simple Rod, all it does when you right click is ask the gods for a bit more time and they send down 5 extra hearts for your survival (configurable). ID: health
Companion Rod
This one is my favorite Rod so far, what you do is right click with it and...BAM, you get 1 tamed dog (configurable) to help you fight and/or protect you! ID: companion
Hunger Rod
Have you ever been in the middle of a duel and your hunger drops below 9 porkchops? You know you should eat so you can get your health regen back, but it takes FOREVER to eat when your in the middle of a battle! What this Rod does when you right click is instantly fill up 7.5 porkchops (configurable)! ID: hunger
Creeper Rod
This nifty little Rod lets you do something you've always wanted to do; Spawn a creeper on top of your enemy! All you do is aim and click, and POOF, 1 (configurable) creeper just spawns where you clicked, but be careful, these creepers will still attack you, so you better make sure they blow up your enemy before you!!! ID: creeper
Explosion Rod
I'm pretty sure you can guess what this Rod does! Your right, just aim 'n' click, and BOOM an explosion just a little bit smaller then TNT happens where ever you aimed, with a max range of 30 blocks (configurable). ID: explosion
Ender Rod
This one isn't too complicated, just right click and you throw an ender pearl! ID: ender
Parkour Rod
This one is really useful, after you click you get 15 seconds (configurable) of Speed III and Jump Boost II!!! ID: parkour
Fire Rod
This one was suggested by bobhull517, it is basically a fire charge, on a stick, that you can shoot! ID: fire
Arrow Rod
Ever wanted a rapid-fire bow? Well, this will kinda work :P just right click with it and it shoots 3 (configurable) arrows in rapid succession! ID: arrow
Weather Rod
Now I know you'll love this one! Just click with it and it will toggle the state of the weather, no more rainy days! Thanks for the idea Robbekes_ ID: weather
Recipes:
Basically, every rod needs 1 Blaze Rod (configurable, you could try a stick, or a golden pickaxe, anything you want :) ) and some ingredients that match its effect, whenever you put this together and in the right pattern you get 4 (configurable) of the rod you were crafting!
Hunger Rod
Companion Rod
Lightning Rod
Hunger Rod
Creeper Rod
Explosion Rod
Ender Rod
Parkour Rod
At first glance this recipe might seem a bit strange, its just some of the ingredients needed to make a speed potion.
Fire Rod
Arrow Rod
Weather Rod
Installation...
Download the latest LightningRod.jar and place it in your "plugins" folder, run the server once to generate the config file and your set!
Config.yml
The config.yml file has options for so that you can change the names you want for the rods, the item ID for the rod, the cost for each use, and customize the power/amount of each effect. If you wanna see the sample config its here.
Please note: this config is not going to be THE newest, but it should have all the major options :)
Commands:
- /lr, is used to access all of the commends.
- /lr reload, reloads the config.yml file.
- /lr help, redirects the user to this page for help
- /lr spawnrod [rod ID], call this commend with any rod ID (Get those from above) and it will give you 64 (configurable) of those rods.

These are for any permissions plugin for bukkit (I recommend PermissionsBukkit or PermissionsEx)
All the permissions for this plugin start with "lr" (LightningRod)
- lr.*: Gives all permissions for the plugin.
- lr.reload: Allows use of the /lr reload command.

- lr.use.weatherrod: Allows use of the Weather Rod.

Planed Rods
This is where I'm going to be putting all the rods I plan on making and ones that other people suggest!
- Posion Rod: Shot posion potions out of this Rod!
- Jail Rod: Encases/Entombs target in a certain block! Thanks 007godofwar!
- Ghast Rod: Shoots ghast sized fireballs! Thanks tatulda!
- Glow Rod: Places down a block of glowstone at whatever you were point at!
- Cake Rod: Spawns a cake right before your eyes (Not a lie, really!)
TO DO
- Add more rods.
- Could someone make a client mod that will look at the lore of a blaze rod and based off that change the texture?? Please? :)
- I need some more ideas! Leave a comment!

PS: the creator will never update this, it was created in 2013 and he never has updated it.
how about the companion rod has one that spawns cats and you craft it the same way, but using fish instead of bones!
( can be fun and call it cat rod or kitty rod, or just call it companion_rod_2 )
why not an invisibility rod? turns you invisible permanently until right-clicked again
the recipes images didnt show up
if you still need ideas, you should make a disguise rod, where you disguise as a selected player or mob.
Command=/powertool disguiserod <mob/player>
@AlfonzoMC
You can configure all that using the new plugin. This one is not going to be receiving any more updates.
I think being able to configure the actual power of the parkour rod would be nice, not how long but the power, like speed _ and jump boost _. That'd be awesome
Hi can you make it so you can give theses rods out in kits. Also give perms to who can make the rods?
@RoonsterMan02
That's one of the many new features in the second edition.
yeah me 2
gonna download now!
but... how do u craft them?
Can you make it so in creative you have unlimited? Thankyou if you will!
I would like to see permissions for crafting each rod (i.e. lr.craft.lightningrod). That way Ops can choose what can be crafted on their servers and give permissions to specific ranks or groups or disallow rods they feel are too powerful for players.
Also, would it be possible to have /lr recipe [id]?
Then show the workbench gui with the recipe showing.
Suggestions:
Freeze rod - Target is immobilised for a short while.
Teleport rod - Target is teleported to a location (Shift + right-click to set destination).
Change the creeper rod to a spawn rod configurable to spawn any mob.
Change ender rod, arrow rod to an item rod configurable to fire any item.
Hat rod? Getting a bit thin on ideas now! Target has hat put upon them
Just sayin' :D
I was meant to say you. PLZ cn you add what I said, PLZ!!!
Can we make a configurable time amout that the glowstone will stay when using in the future updates the glow rod? Also a new rod idea: Vampire rod -When used gives the mob/player the effect wither 1 for 5 seconds -You get (the spell caster) gets the regen 1 effect for 5 seconds It acts like draining life, cuz the wither and regen do the same amout of hearts. How many the target losses that many hearts you get. This is how wither and regen work.
Can you make it that ops can have infinite usage on a rod?
Your plugin has been featured in USM's Bukkit Reviews. Feel free to post it on your page or share it with others if you like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-qlQrTLye4
@helloimepic123456
This isn't really a mod, its a plugin for the CraftBukkit server, but if you want it, just get a Bukkit server running and you can download it here, then put it into the "plugins" folder on your server!
