ComPassionate

ComPassionate v2.7.1 (Updated for 1.5)

Description

ComPassionate is a plugin that is designed to overhaul compasses and their features. It gives players the ability to create waypoints which can be named, given descriptions, and stored into a database for later use. In addition to this, it offers the ability to track players/mobs through an intuitive interface. Hate commands? This plugin comes with an (almost) command-less alternative. But it goes without saying that it also comes with a very thorough command interface for users/administrators to use alike.

Compass Modes

Important: To cycle through compass modes, hold a compass in your hand and right-click

Waypoint Tracker

The Waypoint Tracker is what I consider the premier feature of ComPassionate 2.0. It allows players to create lists of waypoints that can be seamlessly targetted by their compass, in addition to allowing descriptions of each waypoint to be made (so they aren't confused by similar entries)

Command-less Usage:

  • Left-Click: Cycles through the player's current list of waypoints
  • Crouch-Left-Click: Sets a waypoint to the player's current location, and prompts them for a name and description
  • Crouch-Right-Click: Tells you which waypoint you're tracking

Mob Tracker

The Mob Tracker mode will essentially scan an area around you (configurable) for mobs, select a mob at random, tell you what type of mob it is, and set your compass to follow that mob. Every 5 seconds, the compass will update to the mob's new location. If the mob dies, or you go too far away, it will drop the target. Players have the option to remove certain mobs from the cycle.

Command-less Usage:

  • Left-Click: Tracks a random mob in a configurable vicinity
  • Crouch-Left-Click: Will 'ignore' the mob for future trackings. This is useful for only searching for a specific type of mob in an area.
  • Crouch-Right-Click: Tells you which mob you're tracking

Player Tracker

The Player Tracker mode is extremly similar to the Mob Tracker mode, except it will scan players instead of mobs. For this reason, I'm not really going to give much use info for it. All the steps for the mob scanner, are the same for this. (Just pretend each 'mob' is replaced with 'player')

(NEW) Grave Tracker

The Grave Tracker mode allows players to keep track of the last place they died. This can be useful for going to retrieve items after a nasty fall, creeper encounter, or dance with cave spiders. It also persists through reloads, so if the server shuts off unexpectedly, you can find your items when it's back up.

Command-less Usage:

  • Left-Click: Locate your last known death location
  • Shift-Left-Click: (none)
  • Shift-Right-Click: (none)

Commands

There are 3 'base' aliases for the ComPassionate commands: /compassionate, /compass, and /cp

  • /cp help - Tells you everything you need to know.
  • /cp locate <waypointName> - Targets the named waypoint
  • /cp waypoint list - Lists all of your waypoints
  • /cp newwaypoint <name> - Creates a new waypoint with <name> at current location
  • /cp info <waypointName> - Tells you the info AND coordinates of a certain waypoint
  • /cp setinfo <waypointName> <info...> - Allows you to set a generic description for a waypoint
  • /cp remove <waypointName> - Removes a waypoint from your current list
  • /cp mode help - lists a separate help section for compass modes
  • /cp locateplayer <playerName> - Locates the selected player
  • /cp share <waypointName> <playerName> - Shares the selected waypoint with the given player
  • /cp toggle - Toggles the entire set of ComPassionate features to be on/off

3Enable-Permissionsset this to false if you want it to run off an OP-based system, leave it true for permissions supprort
4Spawn-With-Compass-On-DeathIf this is set to true, players who have a compass in their inventory upon dying will respawn with it, and it will not be dropped. This is for the 'Grave-Tracker' mode
