BetterAlias

Table of Contents

Tired of entering tedious and repetitive commands? Wish you could group commands into one short and easy to use command?

With BetterAlias you can specify any number of aliases for your commands!

Features

Create aliases for long repetitive commands:

/permissions player setgroup <playerName> VIP

becomes

/vip <playerName>

Combine multiple commands into one simple command
Compatible with your existing permissions/plugin commands!
Supports partial player name lookups (ie "e0n" to find "Ne0nx3r0")

Installation

Add BetterAlias.jar to your plugins directory
Once loaded an aliases.yml file will be created
Customize the file and use /bareload to enable the changes.
Use the examples inside aliases.yml to setup aliases for everyone to use! (or add a custom permission node for the command)

Usage

See the examples page.

Spanish video tutorial

Multiple Commands

Separate multiple commands with dashes (-):

tpthenkick: 
    1: 
      - /tp !1p !name
      - /kick !1p

The examples file that comes with the plugin includes examples of every type

Keselo i had the same problem with those 2 plugins

Alias wont 100% fix this problem but you can use "/herostronghold" in place of "/hs

So you could make a "/build <region>" for your "/herostronghold create <region>"

I can help you set this up if you PM some more details about your HeroStronghold setup (eg are you using the default regions? or your own custom ones?"

Hey, I have a conflict between two mods. Hyperconomy and HeroStrongholds share the same command of /hs . Would this help? I don't quite understand how to set aliases. Any where I can get a more detailed explanation?

Here's an example from the config file:

tpthenkick: 1: - /tp !1p !name - /kick !1p

Or 0, if you have no parameters

It's replaced with everything the person said, so:

/s fish sticks

becomes

/say I want to say "fish sticks", there I said it!

Well, as I said it still works fine, and since I use it on my server when it breaks I'll provide an update.

If it makes you feel better I'll leave it as active :).

I agree, this plugin looks a lot nicer and easier to use. Without all of the useless added stuff.

I decided to use this instead of CommandHelper because it is far more simple to use.

So I disagree with that because this plugin works in a different way, in a simpler way, and in a way that allows me to not have a gigantic plugin such as CommandHelper with all its extra features I don't need which often caused me problems and took my time up.

I will just keep using this and hopefully will be able to keep it working if anything changes. Thanks for the hard work =)

It still works fine; the author of CommandHelper felt that it duplicated his efforts so I agreed not to develop it's features further.

Typically you would just route 0 to the plugin, like:

mymoney: 0: /money 1: /money !1

@Ne0nx3r0 Sorry it took so long to post this (hard drive death).

I'm using MagicSpells to make a 'spell' that lets a race in my server 'eat' metal items. Normally they would have to type '/cast 257' (to eat a pickaxe), but with your plugin they can type 'eat 257', but if there was the !item# veritable then they would have it in there and and type '/eat' and that would be that.

Looks like it was an issue with case sensitivity, fixed in 0.2.1: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/betteralias/files/4-v0-2-1/
