how do i access the config.yml?
In reply to bladedblanket:
In the plugin folder : plugins/deadchest/config.yml
what command changes the amount of time until the chest dissapears? i tried for a long time and could not figure it out
In reply to bladedblanket:
It's in config.yml, you need to edit the chestDuration option.
Hi, when I disable DeadChest (pretend I want to upgrade minecraft to a version deadchest doesn't support) - all chests are transformed into normal chests. This is good, because it means I don't have to worry about my world getting stuck with a bunch of unopenable chests.
However, the "hologram" text display that shows time limit and player name is permanently stuck in the world. My question is, how can I get rid of this, as a server owner? DeadChest is disabled so I assume minecraft isn't looking at the config file... It seems that it's just there forever?
Maybe, could you add an option to never show a hologram for the chests to begin with? I have the timer set to 0 (infinite) so I'm not worried about the chests disappearing without being found. Or instead of a hologram the option for a sign attached to the chest.
In reply to Haruka_Ikazan:
Hi,
I can't answer for DeadChest Hologram but in your screenshot, it's not a DeadChest hologram, it's a waypoint created by your mod "Xaeros WordMap" and "Xaeros Minimap". You an remove then by pressing "," or "m", place your cursor on the "D" marker and press "del" button on your keyboard.
In reply to ixeygrek:
You're right, thank you for pointing that out. I don't use it regularly I was just testing it for my brother.
I've updated my original post so the addon author can respond only to my issues about this addon.
In reply to Haruka_Ikazan:
Hi Haruka,
You can easily remove hologram from your old deadchests by typing /dc repair next to the hologram. There is no command to clean all at once. You need go next to each deadchest and then, do the command.
That should anwser your question !
In reply to Haruka_Ikazan:
Try this for hologram :
re-enable DeadChest
/dc repair
disable DeadChest
Hello,
Does this plugin work in version 1.16.1?
Is there any plan for ignoring certain items that have certain enchantments? With the "Bind" enchantment of the "zenchantments" plugin, the item is duplicated (one item in the player's inventory and the other item in the deadchest).
Thank you in advance for the answer
In reply to ixeygrek:
Yes it works and yes but I can't give you an ETA.
In reply to crylonz:
thank you for your answer. It doesn't matter that there is no ETA, the main thing for me is that you work on this option. Thanks again for the updates and the care you bring to your plugin ! It's great !
In reply to ixeygrek:
Thanks !
Does curse of vanishing take effect?
In reply to lord_of_stonks:
Yes ! :)
How does one make it so that deadchests are disabled in a world? (Using multiverse)
In reply to vesaucy:
You have an option in config.yml called ExcludedWorld. You just have to add your world(s) in and no deadchest will be created in this world.
Hello,
Do you have in plans to add integration with WorldGuard?
(To prevent creation chest in some regions)
In reply to recluse758:
Hello ! Yes but I can't give you a date at the moment
Can you add a way to see when has been a deadchest open, who has taken it or if it has disappeared?
