BetterCombat
Combat in minecraft has always been little more then -who can click the fastest- so I'm bringing an end to click spamming with BetterCombat. With this plugin your sword or fists have to "recharge" after every hit. Also hits that aren't fully charged will not damage a player that is blocking at all. These tweaks to combat seem very simple but they have a huge effect to the gameplay. Click spamming is no longer the best way to win a fight and blocking finally has a use.
Features
- Configurable time for weapons to charge
- When not fully charged the amount of damage is equal to the percentage charged
- When not fully charged attacks can be blocked
- Works for all non-ranged weapons (including fists)
- More powerful attacks to compensate slower hitting
Config
Charge time: 20 # time it takes for your weapon to fully charge, 1 = 1/10th of a second so default is 2 seconds Damage modifier: 1.8 # 1.0 = default damage Recharge effect: STEP_SOUND.8 # Plays effect STEP_SOUND with data value 8. Full list of effects on http://jd.bukkit.org/apidocs/org/bukkit/Effect.html Play effect for everyone: false Only affect players: false Healthbar display: false # Healthbar display is best used with a plugin like http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/classichunger/

Ok, I'll try to add support for heroes.
Feature request: Heroes Support Adding this would be great because it does not support custom damages on items from Heroes. The particle effect works but blocking or damage boost does not, please read the heroes api and see what you can do :)
@Armarr
Aaaaaaaaand I totally forgot to fix the Casting error in 0.3 ...
well just make sure to write the numbers with a .0 after them :S
@joehot200
Here's the part I needed
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to java.lang.Double at me.armar.plugins.bettercombat.DamageListener.OnEntityDamageByEntity(DamageList ener.java:27)
I'm guessing you changed your Damage modifier: 1.8 to something like 2 or 1 or 3. Just change that to 2.0 or 1.0 or 3.0.
I'll see if I can fix that in the next version.
please tell me u read the comment, then ill delete it, sorry for spam, but i dont know how to use pastebin :(
@joehot200
I'm really going to need the full error, could you please post it on http://pastebin.com/
That guns plugin is exactly what I had in mind, looks cool :)
@Armarr
its called pvpgun, and its only on bukkit, not bukkitdev, if you use it, do less fire rate and less damage, or its very RAM hungry.
@joehot200
There is a non-spout guns plugin? I was thinking of making that myself because I couldn't find one.
brilliant plugin that totally revolutionanises pvp on my server, i have now made bows, and guns (non-spout ones) do less damage, and its wonderful. lots less damage and lots more strategy to get game!!
@Armarr
Actually, I was thinking an indicator of when others are recharged, even if I wouldn't be using it, would be great :D
@UltrafaceGuy
Ok, in the next version I'll actually put in the option to put in whatever vanilla effect (inclusing sound effects) you want to play, or just leave that empty for no effects. Maybe even put in the option to show that effect for every player so they know when you are recharged.
@Armarr
Crazy! Everyone needs it! Its clearly a great idea!
Oh and on a sidenote, could you add a config option for weather or not to show the mobspawner effect? As I have a fairly low recharge time, it isn't needed quite as much.
Good plugin I just installed it on FataLPVP And Its epic. Everyone on my server loves it.
@Shvesley
I might do a video but so far the plugin doesn't have that many downloads so I don't know if it's worth the effort. I'm guessing people aren't looking for this kind of plugin because they don't know how much they need it :3
@DerpingManiac
A video would actually be helpful. I know me and my admins had to test it and figure out how it works before we decided to use it.
Awesome plugin. Every realistic server should use it :)
@gabriel11798
I don't think it will interfere although I'm not sure how McMMO does damage handling.
@DerpingManiac
Hmm I guess I could make a video showing off the mechanics, a picture wouldn't show anything really :P
Will this interfere with mcMMO?
Videos? Or Pictures?
