DeathTpPlus
DeathTpPlus
DeathTpPlus announces a death with a random message based on the death cause and allows you to teleport to the point of death It can also create a TombStone at the place you died to let you save your inventory (aka DeadMansChest).You can also create a tomb sign which can be used as respawn point and as a place of information of how often you died and what your last death cause was.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to some issues with yaml you can get the following error: unacceptable character '?' " in the log, The fix is to remove the รค atm from the default messages and if you have custom messages to remove any of them using special characters. Sorry about that!
How does it work?
Take a look at how it works.. Videos
Also take a look at this picture to know what I'm talking about in the config file and on these pages
Based on the original plugin from lonelydime. Integrates a fork of furt from cenotaph and tomb from dark_balor.
PLEASE NOTE: Mung3r is taken over from here, he did already help me a lot and is willing to keep this plugin updated. THANKS a lot

Don't want one of the features? No worries! Just disable it in the config file and it'll be like that feature isn't in the plugin at all! The file IOs aren't called and neither are the methods used for those features. Worried about performance? Don't be!

FAQ
- Q: Colors are not working correctly in messages, what is wrong?
A: If you are using Essentials Chat turn that off, otherwise you need to live with it or ask Essentials Teams why that happens. - Q: What does "expected <block end>, but found Scalar" in my log messages mean?
A: Probably you forgot to use \" or ' to get a " - Q: I see a killed by X message but I did use /suicide from essentials or similar.
A: This is a bug of the other plugin not setting the death cause correctly. Nothing I can do. Sorry. - Q: If I die in a cave or in nether and use /deathtp I will teleport back to the place I died but on top of the world
A: Change teleportToHighestBlock: true to false but read the comments first in the config. - Q: Could you support RegionPlugin XYZ?

Just started getting the follow error:
Can i use this plug-in only for death messages? I want to remove tombstons! How to do it?
Hey mung3r and DonRedhorse,
I just want to say great plugin! This has replaced two of our plugins. Thank you very much
I have a suggestion for this wonderful plugin: I think it would be less confusing if the word Tomb was changed to Tombstat.
My team and I were configuring the plugin for hours and came across some issues. It turns out that we wrongly assumed that Tomb and Tombstone were the same. I think everyone else would agree that instinctively when we see the word Tomb we think you are refering to Tombstone when infact its a stat function. So what do you think of renaming the Tomb to Tombstat or Tombinfo. You get a clear distinction from the word: Tombstone.
@einstein314
hmm looks like a bug to me, I guess the tomb gets overwritten with the new one instead of added.
But you should be able to destroy a sign with the {Tomb} on it with the deathtpplus.admin.tomb permission.
doesn't that work?
@ccman972
sounds like a nice feature, don't know though if that is possible.
First of Vault would need to support that, and than second we would need to figure out if it works for every chatplugin out there.
I guess you want the Tag in Front of the customized name or?
Nevermind.
Is there a way to make it just death notify?
Question about tombs (not tombstones): How does one go about removing a tomb? I placed a tomb sign and it worked properly - it told me it had created the tomb. Then I went and got myself killed (for testing purposes) and sure enough I spawned back at the tomb sign.
Then I placed a second tomb sign. This one also said it was created properly. When I get killed I now spawn at the new tomb sign. But if I try to remove the old tomb sign (by breaking the sign) it breaks but then immediately reappears (but without any text on it). If I logout and log in again the text comes back and it's a tomb sign again.
I can break my new tomb sign and it disappears but now when I die I still spawn at the new tomb sign location (which doesn't exist anymore) rather than the original sign (or no sign at all).
Has anybody seen this before? How can I remove the tomb sign I don't want to use anymore?
@DonRedhorse
it worked thx
@Shooty_
looks like issue with your network connection (or better with github)... you can disable automatic update checking if that problem is still there.
I have this error at the start of the server http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2012/38/1347892735-err.jpg :s
@erdrickk
just use "" for that, that should work
@Etsija
which version of deathtpplus and cb?
You let the tombstone be removed automatically and did configure RemoveTombStoneWhenEmpty?
@arriej
well in this case you need to negate permission for deathtpplus.tombstone.use
they will not be able to get a tombstone than... hope that this is what you are asking for.
otherwise please open a ticket and describe again what you want to do.
Getting this every time I restart a server: http://pastie.org/4735964
@DonRedhorse
But i want the diamond donators to use /deathtp to return to thier dead location, i just want no chests
Is it possible to turn off certain death messages? I want to remove the death messages when people fall to their death
@arriej
you need to negate the permission deathtpplus.deathtp iirc..
@arriej
oh.. that are the only permission you gave?
hmm wonder if bpermissions at the plugin permissions too.
will take a look
@DonRedhorse
No i don't use PEX I use Bpermissions But this are the perms i have set for users:
But its making a chest when they carry one
