DragonTravel

Table of Contents

DragonTravel gives players the opportunity to ride dragons in Minecraft.
It offers server-admins the possibility to add a new outstanding way of travel to their servers.

More videos on DragonTravel (including tutorials)

Features:

Allows admins to set destinations for the dragons.
Allows players with the specific permission to summon and mount a dragon and...
...fly flights which consists out of waypoints(as many as you like)
...fly to destinations which have been set by an admin before.
...fly to coordinates chosen via command.
...fly to players choosen via command(different permission-nodes for other types of travel).
...fly to your faction's home-position (Factions required)
...fly to your town's spawn (Towny required)
...fly to a home-position which has been set by this player earlier.
Allows admins to set stations and limit the mounting of dragons to these locations (or a specified radius around it).
Possibility to require a special item for players to use the plugin (e.g. a dragon-egg)
Making signs which automatically mount a player and bring them to the written destination on the sign.
Permissions-Support
Support of all Economy-Plugins supported by Vault (Vault is required for that)!
Admins can set different prices for all ways of travel!
Admins can choose in the config whether dragons of this plugin should destroy blocks or if any dragons should break blocks when touching.
All messages are fully customizable! Default messages.yml is English, but we provide German and French language files as well.

Due to the fact that things can change rapidly in this project, I stopped maintaining instructions on the plugin and other information like a list of commands/permissions in the forums, on this page etc. and decided to create a central location where you can always find all information up-to-date: The DragonTravel-Wiki.

Please use this wiki and report all mistakes you find in there and avoid posting questions on topics like commands/permissions/sign-creation etc., which are answered in the wiki, in the comments.

Contribute on GitHub

The questions and requests posted in the comments are repeating and there are some questions we answer at least once per week, so we decided to write down some of those Frequently Asked Questions.
Please read the questions below and see if you can find your question there, this really saves us time we can then spend on the development of DragonTravel.

Is it possible to change the speed the dragon's wings are flapping?
Is it possible to remove the dragon's health-bar?
Is it possible to control the dragon manually?
Is it possible to move the rider closer to the dragon to avoid him flying above it?
DragonTravel does not start, what can be the problem?

You can find the answers to those questions in the FAQ!

Please read the paragraph above before posting any questions!

I spent several hours on it and I just cannot get it to work with my new development environment. Seems like there have been some bigger changes to the dragons in Craftbukkit which make it hard to get it to work with the new version....

A year ago, I started a huge refactoring of the plugin to make things easier and nearly finished it, but I haven't been able to test them properly yet (spent about 40 hours on testing so far), but I simply do not have the time for it... -.-

I'll give it another try tomorrow, but currently I'm afraid, there might not be a DragonTravel version for CB 1.13 very soon... :(

If there is anyone willing to support me as a maintainer, feel free to contact me via PM or mail.

I have a 1.7.10 Thermos Server. Any chance of some support for this version servers?

Im getting an error in console:

INFO Version 'v1_7_R4' is currently not supported.

ERROR [DragonTravel] Could not find RyeDragon entity.

INFO RawrMaoster issued server command: /dt addstatdragon SpawnStation Spawn-Station

This is the version of bukkit/cauldron/thermos im using:

Thermos-1.7.10-1614-57

or will i have to use an outdated one or can you recommend one that works for me?

Hey,

you could give version 01.006.03 a try, but normally, all version from that version on should support your version (which is equal to Bukkit 1.7.-R0.2).

In reply to RawrMaoster:

I'd need to check again manually, but I thought, I already implemented support for that version a long time ago...

I definitely support for v1_7_R3 anf v1_8_R1, so it might be the case that you got the version "in beteen" even though I thought that DT supported all versions from 1.7.9-R0.1 on...

What exactly do you mean by that? Waypoints and Stations are world-specific, so you can travel from one world to another. There might still be some small bugs, but it works. :)

i remmber using this in bukkit 1.11... is the weird glitch where the dragon's wouldn't land on flat ground fixed? they kinda just would fly in place trying to land.. and its not like anyone knew about the dismount command unless an admin was there.. so we had to scrap it.

In reply to Nekrose483:

It is improved and should barely happen, but I guess, I could just add an option for the dismount radius, so everyone can increase it, so you dismount when the dragon is "around" the target (e.g. 5 blocks close to it).

I improved a bunch of things and rewrote a big part, but I'm already working on some last things for months now and do not find the time to finish and publish the new version... -.-

Thanks for the continuous updates! This is one of the most popular plugins on our server. The dragon adjusting to flying curves works better now than in any previous version. Cheers!

Is it possible to fly the dragon yourself? Such as mount it and then control it during flight? Fight with it etc. Could make for incredible end-game experience for players to become Dragon riders and fly and fight along side their tamed beast.

Sorry for the late response everyone. I had some private stuff and in addition to that somehow killed my workspace and DT did not build anymore, so I had to set up everything from scratch.

In reply to sebicraft_:

If you still need help, please paste your server log at pastebin.com and send me the link.

In reply to Punish:

Yes, I will try to release an version for 1.12 as soon as possible.

For whatever reason, this happens with DragonTravel a lot for me in my Eclipse Workspace. Sometimes I have to mess around to get it to cleanly import into Eclipse when I work on it. Sometimes that can take me up to an hour and by the time I get it set up, I lose my drive to work on the project xD So I definitely completely understand what happened there lol
