DiscoverWarps
What it does
DiscoverWarps is a simple Skyrim/RPG style warp/teleportation plugin that lets you warp to locations that you have previously discovered.
Features
- Use stone or wood pressure plates to set discovery points
- Plates are protected from griefing and explosions
- Simple to use
- Set auto-discoverable locations
- Set a cost to buy locations
- Use signs to warp to locations
- Created in response to this request: http:forums.bukkit.org/threads/wip-mech-teleportation-skyrim-traveling.112579/
Installation
Add the DiscoverWarps.jar file to your server's plugins directory and start up the server. Config and database files will be created automatically with the default values.
If you want to use the buying feature you will need to install Vault and the economy plugin of your choice (check the Vault page for supported plugins)
How it works
- Place a stone or wood pressure plate where you want the discovery point to be
- Stand on the pressure plate
- Make the plate a DiscoverPlate by typing
/dw set [name]
- Add as many DiscoverPlates as you want
- Players can show a list of DiscoverPlates by typing
/dw list
- If they have discovered one of the plates (by walking on it) it will be marked as VISITED - Once a player has discovered a DiscoverPlate, they can teleport to it by typing
/dw tp [name]
- Warp to a DiscoverPlate via a GUI (version 1.5.x or higher), type
/dw tp
(without specifying a name) to open the GUI
DiscoverWarp Signs
You can place signs that will warp you to the specified DiscoverWarp plates
- Place a sign
- On the first line type: [DiscoverWarp] - the text to type is configurable
- On the second line type the name of the warp to go to
- Click Done to finish editing the sign - if there is a cost for buying the location, it will be placed on line 3
A player will be warped to the location if:
- they have already discovered the location
- there is a cost set and the player has sufficient balance
WorldGuard region discovery
To set them up:
- Add your WorldGuard region in the usual way
- Add a discoverplate inside the region where you want the warp point to be
- Run the
/dw set [name]
command as usual - The plugin should auto-detect the WorldGuard region and add it to the database along with the plate location
- Get another player to test it out...
- You're done!
Commands
/dw set [name]
- turns the stone or wood pressure plate you are standing on into a DiscoverPlate/dw delete [name]
- removes the specified DiscoverPlate/dw disable [name]
- disables the specified DiscoverPlate/dw enable [name]
- enables the specified DiscoverPlate/dw cost [name] [amount]
- set the cost for a DiscoverPlate/dw auto [name]
- toggle auto-discovery true|false for a DiscoverPlate/dw allow_buying
- toggles allow_buying true|false - requires Vault and a server restart to hook in your economy plugin/dw xp_on_discover
- toggles xp_on_discover true|false/dw sign [text]
- sets the text to type between the square brackets[ ]
on a DiscoverWarps sign/dw list
- lists enabled DiscoverPlates and shows if they are visited/not visited/dw tp [name]
- teleports you to the specified DiscoverPlate, can now be used from the console:- You need to supply a
[player]
argument - so the command becomes:dw tp [name] [player]
- The player must have discovered the plate first, to override discovery, supply a fourth argument -
true
- the command now becomes:dw tp [name] [player] true
- You need to supply a
/dw buy [name]
- Buy the specified DiscoverPlate location

Metrics
This plugin utilises Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:
- A unique identifier
- The server's version of Java
- Whether the server is in offline or online mode
- The plugin's version
- The server's version
- The OS version/name and architecture
- The core count for the CPU
- The number of players online
- The Metrics version
Opting out of this service can be done by editing plugins/Plugin Metrics/config.yml and changing opt-out
to true
UUID conversion
Versions 1.4 and higher of this plugin will connect to api.mojang.com to update player names in the database to UUIDs in order to support the upcoming name changes in Minecraft. It will do this one time only, when the server starts up after installing the new version of the plugin.
Oh thanks so much eccentricnz sorry for the late reply. Was so busy lately. Your plugin is amazing ! Its perfect for my server!

Thanks for the wonderful plugin.
However, in the GUI , the warps (pressure plates) do not work after the 2nd line.
I have 26 discovery warps (I have a huge dungeon world) and only the first 2 lines, (18) work.
Thank you for this great plugin!

Hello, I have make a video of the plugin in french :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEmUFE2la9Y
@Unknown452
Can you make new additions compatible with 1.7.10?
You should add titles that show up when you discovered a warp.

@BD35120
GUI added to version 1.5 :)
I just whitelisted my server and put it in online mode evilbanana to install, then changed it back.
@Evilbannana1
As far as I am aware, as long as it is a fresh install and not an upgrade of an existing one, it should work just fine.
This looks real neat, but doesn't seem to work on proxy based servers at the moment due to the fact that the servers themselves are in offline mode. I hope you will add support for this in the future!
I will use it for Assassins Creed sync points for fast travel
@eccentricnz
I have made a ticket :D
@DanSpedey
Can you make a ticket, and attach your database file so that I can try it myself (and hopefully find the problem)
1.4.2 from the dev build still doesn't work.
