CobraKits
CobraKits
Version 1.1 Released!
CobraKits is a comprehensive kit plugin for Bukkit that allows admins and players alike to create kits in-game without editing any configuration files and is managable entirely by in-game commands. All you need to do is set the kit up in your own inventory and CobraKits will take care of the rest! CobraKits supports enchants, written books, named items, potion effects, and per-kit cooldowns. It also has SuperPerms support to control who can use and manage kits and change plugin settings.
Installation
- Drop the CobraKits.jar into your plugins folder and restart your server.

Kit Types
CobraKits has 3 kit types
- Server Kits - Meant to be used on signs or for any of the login/spawn kit settings.
- Cannot be used directly without cobrakits.* permission.
- Doesn't require "Server." in name when used for signs or login/spawn kit settings.
- Global Kits - Meant to be used for kits that most players can access.
- Requires cobrakits.use/useall to see and use them.
- Cannot be seen if the player only has cobrakits.[kitname] permissions.
- Does not require "Global." in name when used.
- Personal Kits - Kits owned/created by the players.
Potion Effects
- Specifying the -p/-potions flag while running the /ckit or /ukit commands will capture the active potion effects of the player to the kit.
- The potion effect duration is calculated on the back end, so they will be granted at full duration when using the kit later.
- If a custom potion effect length is over 8 minutes it will be preserved.
- Effects over 1638 seconds at time of kit creation/update will register as "infinite" to the game.
- There is no way to individually specify potion effects, the potions must be active on the player when captured.
- Custom effects can be added using the server's builtin /effect command.
- To clear potion effects, apply the kit, clear all potion effects (/effect [username] clear), and then update it and specify -p/-potion
- Potion effects are also affect by the -c/concat flag for /kit.
Kit Costs
- CobraKits supports a basic item trade system for kit costs that can be set with /ckit or /ukit.
- -kc/-cost [Material:amount] is the current syntax. Item durability is set to max, so players cannot trade in damaged items for a kit.
- A link to the list of Material names is included in the help section for /ckit and /ukit.
- To clear a kit cost, update the kit, after applying it to yourself, and specify -kc/-cost clear
Kit Cooldowns
- Each kit in CobraKits can have it's own individual cooldown duration.
- The global cooldown setting will override individual kit cooldowns.
- Cooldowns persist through server restart and login/logout.
- The current syntax is -cd/-cooldown [seconds]
- To clear a cooldown, update the kit, after applying it to yourself, and specify -cd/-cooldown 0
Spawn Kits
CobraKits can give Player's a kit upon login or respawn. Here's how!
- First Time Login Kits - applied to a player when they first join the server.
- Login Kits - applied to a player any time they rejoin the server. (requires permissions)
- Respawn Kits - applied to a player when they respawn on death. (requires permissions)
The directions are as follows:
- Make sure you have the correct permissions: OP or cobrakits.*
- Fill your inventory with the items/blocks you want to give to new players.
- Run /ckit -server [kitname]
- For First Time kits, run /ckits startkit +[kitname] Note: Specifying the full kit name is good practice, though Server/Global kits don't require it.
- For Login kits, run /ckits loginkit +[kitname]
- For Respawn kits, run /ckits respawnkit +[kitname]
Now that kit you created will be granted, silently, to players joining/respawning on the server. To disable the feature, run /ckits (startkit/loginkit/respawn) clear which will clear the list.
To remove a specific kit from the list, run /ckits (startkit/loginkit/respawn) -[kitname]
Kit Signs
Creating a kit sign is a simple process and has only a few rules that you need to follow! You will need:
- The correct permissions: OP, cobrakits.*, or cobrakits.sign.create
- Any kit where the full name fits on one sign line, or either a Server or Global kit.
- WorldGuard or similar plugin to protect the sign after creation.
The format for creating the signs is very simple and supports most of the /kit command functions. Place a sign and type the following on the corresponding lines:
- [COBRAKIT] or [KIT] - Capitalization not needed, but brackets are required.
- Leave this line blank, it will be replaced with the kit's cost, if any.
- kitname - Must be a full kit name that fits this line. Server or Global kits work best. No brackets or any other formatting.
- "c" and/or "s" - Here you can specify the optional concat or silent flags. As long as a "c" and/or "s" is on this line the plugin will find it.
After that is typed, create the sign. If you have everything correct the first line will turn Red, the kitname Blue, and the flags will be displayed in the format of c|s, where active options will be Gold, and inactive options will be strikeout. Any user with the cobrakits.sign.use permission will be able to use the kit sign, and it also works with the kit cooldown set in the config file, so you can prevent user's from getting kits too often.
Source Code
The source code is included in the .jar file, just open it up in a compatible archive application like 7-Zip! It is also now available on GitHub.

please update
I try to update my kits but it says the kit doesn't exist even though it does...
hmmm...
Is there a way an Admin could bypass the cooldown?
@Academician
Cool, thank you for your response.
@harlequin135
This is default behavior for ckits, so that multiple players can have kits with the same name. To make a kit a generic kit, run /ckit update [kitname] [newname] and when specifying the newname do not provide a username prefix. You will need to give player's permission to use this kit with the cobrakits.[kitname] permission, if you havent already given them the useall permission.
At the moment there is no way to set a maximum length a kit can be used, only a cooldown between using the command to use a kit.
Beta for 1.4.7 works well, Thank you. One thing, players need to type my username in when getting the kit. Is there a way to stop this so they can just type: /ckits [kitname] rather than /ckits [myname] [kitname]? And is there a way to set how long players can have the kit?
For those wishing to run this on the latest 1.4.7 server, I have placed a beta version in the Development folder for CobraKits on ftp.drome.us that should be compatible. I will not be uploading this version to dev.bukkit at this time due to some changes I want to make to the plugin before I put up a new version here, but the dev build should get you up and running and is only modified for some slight API changes.
Why Does This Plugin not work for 1.4.6 :( I really wanted to use it
@Academician
okay, Thanks for the help
@KingAmles
It attempts to add the contents of the kit to the existing inventory, as long as the player has enough open item slots. The default for ckits is to completely wipe the current inventory and replace it with the kit.
what does concat do?
Just an FYI to everyone that a 1.4.6 compatible version, Beta .75, is in the approval queue. However, since it's the holiday and they may not get to it for a bit, you can pick it up on my ftp server in the Release folder!
Love it!
@mig4ng
At the moment the inventory is replaced because the process saves all null slots as well as filled. This allows me to easily put items back in the same slots they were saved in, without additional overhead coding. I'll do so testing to see how I have to handle it, but I may be able to add either a -concat flag or even just a /ckit concat [kitname] function. It will require a bit more codework, but it's doable :]
@NINJA_SQUIRR3Lx
I'll take a look at a possible cooldown setting, I can see how that'd be helpful for some :] The permissions part is on my list of to-do things for sure now that I added the ability to rename kits so they aren't username specific. Expect something like cobrakits.[kitname], and you'd have to remove the .use or .useall permission from players for it to be effective.
I love the plugin but can u make it so in promosions a player can only use a certian kit? and also a cooldown on the kits?
Suggestion: New Command: /ckit give [kitname] - Instead replacing the whole inventory, only gives you the kit without removing anything.
