EmergencyDowntime
EmergencyDowntime
This plugin has been updated for full release.
Features
Features:
What this plugin basically does is puts the server on "emergency mode" It kicks all non-op players out of the server and stops non-op players from joining. The only players that can remain in the server during emergency mode are OPs and the players with permission to be exempt from emergency mode. It allows server admins to do what they have to do without having to take care or worry about the players. It prevents further damage and frustration to be done. Instead of just stopping you're server for awhile to prevent players from entering, you can use this plugin. Please visit our other pages for more details.
Usage
Basic usage: Usage subject to change, we'll do our best to update this page
Commands:
/ed build - Disables building (use /ed off to disable)
/ed full - Put the server on Emergency mode or (if the server was already in emergency mode) put it on normal mode for everybody to join.
/ed help - List commands
/ed off - Turns off both full downtime and partial downtime!
/ed partial - Put the server on partial emergency mode. It stops non-op players from joining the server BUT does not kick the players that are non-op in the server currently.
/ed check -Check if server is in downtime!
/ed ver - Find what version you are running!
/ed kickall Kicks everybody out of the server (including OPs and possibly you too) and stops them from entering. .
/ed reload Allow for persistant downtime during reloading. Can only be used when /ed full is on. (use /ed off to make this false)
HOW TO USE TIMED COMMANDS
Timed commands can only be used for the following commands
- /ed kickall
- /ed partial
- /ed full
- /ed build
How to actually use timed commands: When you wish to use any of the commands above, first type them out and then add how many seconds the task should be delayed.
Example use: /ed full 30 Full downtime will be enabled in 30 seconds.

@ImTotallyTechy
Odd, I cannot recreate the bug on my side. I'll be uploading a new version soon, (nothing has changed with the code that affects you) but I can't seem to find the bug.
To your second suggestion, that's already been implemented. It's /ed reload which only works with /ed full
To your third suggestion, I'll work on it for the upcoming version :)
And I would also like to see a broadcasted message when it is timed to close, so when I do /ed full 60, it says
[EmergencyDowntime] Server activating Emergency Downtime in 60 seconds!
and countdown by 10's or somthing. That would be really cool. Thanks!
@dakoslug
Sorry, I didnt see that you replied. One of the bugs I've been getting is when I do /ed full or /ed kick, it will kick the players, but from my console it still says they are online. It doesnt do much, but takes a bit of ram and the only way to get it to stop regestering is to restart the server.
Also, I would like to see if you can implement that if I restart the server in Downtime, it will stay that way when it comes back online until I do /ed off.
Thanks!
@Chard07
Haha! Yeah that's actually why I created it.
thank you so much for this plugin the nagging users were bugging me when i was setting perms
@Lord_Cuddles
Nice suggestion! Will be implemented in the next version
Just a suggestion, is it possible for the plugin to modify the server's MOTD whilst in downtime?
This would mean people wouldn't try to connect as much when it's under downtime, as they'd know it from looking at the motd.
@ImTotallyTechy
I was confused, because there is already a "language file". Bugs?? What bugs! Please tell me!
@dakoslug
A language file basically allows a user to change messages that the plugin says. So if the default message is "Server closed for Emergency Downtime", the user can open the file in a text editor and change it to "Sorry, our server is down for emergency purposes". They can also change font and color via this file.
Anyways, there are a number of bugs this plugin contains, but I really like it! Thanks
@iTzTito
A language file? What do you mean? PM'd for more details.
Thanks for taking an interest!
Please, for the next version added a language file. To edit all messages and their colors. Suggestion .. Regards
@Zocolo
I'm looking into it, thanks!
I submitted a ticked. I hope to get my problem fixed. Thanks. My config get reset whenever i edit the Messages(And i leave the quotation marks there) and reload the plugin.
EmergencyDowntime is now out of beta!
Check the new version! Full of improvements.
Hey, love the plugin. Can you possibly make a permission that let's staff on my server join while the server is still in downtime (downtime.join)? If I give them the downtime.exempt permission they can still remain on the server after I turn on full downtime, however, if they leave, they cannot join back on. Thanks.
@HPoltergeist
It's quite safe to use.
Uh there's no bugs currently, just maybe some cosmetic issues like spelling errors in help and wrong version number.
Hi!
Looks nice! =D
I see this plugin is in Beta stage, and for general inquiry: Is it safe to use? I hope it does not cause any serious errors on a basic server. =)
(Multiverse, Stargate, Dynmap, xAuth, WorldGuard)
I'm planning to use this for maintenances and other stuff, so it would be good to know. =)
Please share a brief review of bugs and things to pay attention to.
Thanks in advance,
HP
@dakoslug Awesome :)
@epicbastion
That has been fixed, in the latest version.
Expect a small update. I've been busy ^^
@raoulster
Sorry, was on vacation :P
I'll get to it :)
