Bukkit

Works on 1.8 Recommended Build

Description:

LPMCNavigator is for servers which don't want a "server" map or don't want to use a server map as they feel it destroys the feeling of exploration that one can have in SMP. It also works well on bounty and PvP maps when "hunting" players.

This plugin adds functionality (more planned and suggestions welcome) to compasses so that you can navigate your way around large maps slightly more easily by poiting your compass at locations and players.

Features:

Right click with compass sets your compass pointing location and outputs your location in an easy to read format. Left clicking with compass sets your compass location back to spawn. You can point your compass at other players to navigate to them. (Please note it points to where a player is when you issue the command - do the command again to gut updated positions. I am looking into methods to allow auto updating without causing excessive cpu usage.) Supports autocomplete - so /nvto men would detect player Mentioum automatically. (Unique Identifyers)

Commands:

/navigate (/nv, /nav, /navi) - Displays a short blurb about the Help File

/navigate (/nv, /nav, /navi) toggle/power - Allows players to turn compass clicking functionality on and off.

/navigate (/nv, /nav, /navi) hide - Allows players to hide from compass pointing.

/navigate (/nv, /nav, /navi) unhide - Allows players to unhide from compass pointing.

/navigate (/nvto, /navto, /navito) player (p) <playername> - Point compass needle at the designated player. e.g: /nv p Mentioum or /navigate player Mentioum.

Installation:

Place the LPMCNavigator.jar into your bukkit server's plugin directory. The plugin will automatically create a subfolder and place its database in there on server start. Change setting you want to change in plugin/LPMCNavigator/config.yml Restart server or reaload plugins for config.yml changes to take effect.

Config Options:

Locate Players = true/false - can players point compasses at other players?

Compass in hand for commands = true/false - do you need a compass in your hand in order to use the /nvto commnds.

Future Plans

• Toggle your Compass between pointing at spawn and your last saved location.
• Allowing other players to send you their location.
• Storing multiple memory points with names.
• Cooldowns and Warmups
• Add permissions for each of the features added.
• Possibly allow Minimap mods to show markers of locations saved?
• Allowing players to go "off the radar" so people can't point to them. + Config enable.) (01/08/2011)
• Add config file for each of the features added. (26/07/2011)
• Toggle Navigation mode on and off - (active). (26/07/2011)
• Allowing you to point your compass at other players. (26/07/2011)
