Bukkit

Some people who are unfamiliar with the way installing plugins and/or updating works always need help, so why not have a guide for installing and/or updating bSpace in the wiki? Remember that this guide is designed for the very beginners who do not know how to install plugins (that well).

Installing bSpace

Installing a CraftBukkit plugin is pretty easy. If the plugin has a lot of configuration settings to play with, it might be a little tricky to do what you want to do. There is a page on the wiki here that has all default configuration files with comments for almost every setting. That will help you configure bSpace to your liking. First, however, let's install the plugin!

1. Download the plugin from the link in the Bukkit forum thread (or here on GitHub, in the README.md-file)

2. Save the .jar file to a location you can find it in the next step.

3. Now go to the location you saved the .jar file and open up your server folder.

4. Inside your server folder, open the plugins-folder. Now drag the .jar file to the plugins-folder you opened.

5. That's it for the file moving part. If your server was running while you did this, do a restart or reload.

6. Now once the server is restarted or reloaded, you should see some bSpace-messages pop up in the server console.

7. Add IDs to your liking to the ids.yml. More info in Configuration.

Making a space world

8. By either using your world management plugin or by using the bukkit.yml, you can now add worlds by adding bSpace:<id> to the world generator
Sorry for those who have read the instructions prior to this. There was a remnant of BananaSpace. It has now been taken care of

9. For more help with usage of bSpace, use the /space help command.

10. If you want to know the permission nodes and commands of bSpace, please see page for them.

That's it, you've now installed bSpace and you're ready to have fun with the rather empty spaceworlds! Remember that you can use the steps 1-5 for other plugins you want to install. We suggest you install Pail (a Bukkit GUI) for easy server management and if you're a little advanced, Spout and Spoutcraft for some extra features to make space feel more realistic.

Remember, if you have any problems, ask here on BukkitDev or on our Bukkit forums thread. If you find a bug, please report it on GitHub or here!

Updating bSpace

Updating bSpace is as easy as 1-2-3, a-b-c or do-re-mi, you just need to pretty much repeat the steps you did to install bSpace, but if the update included configuration file changes, you will have to make a new configuration file if you want to change the new stuff included in the update. Only do this if you have backuped the old configuration files, so you can get your world settings back.
