Quote:Spigot 1.8
All updates for Spigot 1.8 won't be posted here, but on the Spigot forums instead: http://www.spigotmc.org/resources/betterenderchest.2073/
See you there!
This plugin makes Ender Chests secure and configurable. Disable the Ender Chest for certain players, while giving others more rows. Let your players protect their Ender Chest with Lockette and LWC, and let them share their chest to their friends in the same way they are already doing that with normal chests. Give some players access to the /enderchest
command to open their chest from anywhere. Give your mods the ability ot open anyone's Ender Chest. Ender Chests can be separated between world groups, so that the plugin is also usable on servers with separated inventories.
Some features required saving the Ender Chests in a separate file. The plugin automatically imports from vanilla, MultiInv, Multiverse-Inventories and WorldInventories, and there is a converter to convert back to vanilla.
Mojang.com UUID conversion
BetterEnderChest 2.2.* automatically converts names to UUIDs. To achieve this, BetterEnderChest uses evilmidget38's UUIDFetcher, which was modified a little bit. This requires access to https://api.mojang.com
. In BetterEnderChest 2.2.1, it is possible to continue using names instead of UUIDs, so that no access to mojang.com is needed. Set useUUIDs
to false
in the config.yml. However, you need to enable this option before any chests are converted, otherwise items will be lost.
For more information, see this wiki page.

Features
Lockette and LWC integration
Uses Lockette signs or LWC protection so that you can allow other people/groups in your chest. When a chest is protected by you, and if someone else is allowed in your chest, he/she will see your items instead of his/her own items. This is completely optional. To enable this, simply add the Ender Chest to your LWC/Lockette custom block list. (See the installation instructions.)
whitespace hack
Public Ender Chest
Optional: unprotected (by Lockette and LWC) chests are public chests. If you don't add the Ender Chest to the custom block list of those plugins, or if you haven't installed them, there will be no way of making private chests.
whitespace hack
MySQL support
Running multiple servers in one network? BetterEnderChest supports MySQL as of version 2.1. If you use the same database and world group, chests will be shared. Flatfile is also supported, so don't worry if you don't have a database.

Commands
Adds /enderchest
to open your Ender Chest from anywhere. Only for ops by default. It also adds a few useful administrative commands to open and manage the Ender Chest inventories. Commands work even when the owner of the inventory is offline.
whitespace hack
Chest customization
You can set the number of slots in the chest to make the Ender Chest not too overpowered. Players can have different chest sizes based on permissions. No client mods needed. You can also set the drops of the chest (nothing, itself, 8 obsidian, an Eye of Ender (with or without 8 obsidian), or with an Ender Pearl (with or without 8 obsidian) ).
whitespace hack
Multiworld support
Inventories can be separated between worlds, so that for example you creative worlds can have different Ender Chest inventories than your survival worlds, or your Nether world can have other Ender Chest inventories than the surface world. On installation, BetterEnderChest will automatically copy the group structure from your current inventory seperation plugin, if you have one. It is possible to setup another structure in BetterEnderChest than in the inventory seperation plugin. This can be used to create very interesting ways of transporting items between worlds and even servers.
whitespace hack
Default Ender Chest
You can have a default chest that all new players get when opening their Ender Chest for the first time. Edit it with /bec openinv --
defaultchest or a NBT editor. Changes will be applied after the next (auto)save. Each worldgroup has a different default chest.
whitespace hack
Save file format
The plugin has it's own saving/loading mechanics, either using NBT files or MySQL. This is necessary to make some of the features possible. The plugin automatically imports an Ender Chest when it is opened for the first time. The owner of the Ender Chest doesn't need to be online for this. The importer supports vanilla as well as some other plugins (MultiInv, Multiverse-Inventories and WorldInventories).
It doesn't save too often: every five minutes all changed chests are added to a save queue. You can set how fast chest in the save queue get saved.
whitespace hack
Installation and configuration
Just drop the plugin in the plugins folder. Most features will be disabled by default. Read the guide for starters here or read here about every configuration option.
whitespace hack
Permissions
You can view a complete list of the permissions here. The basic permissions are:
betterenderchest.user
- build, craft, open and destroy Ender Chest. Given to everyone by default.betterenderchest.command
- use all commands. Operators automatically get this permission.betterenderchest.command.openinv.self
- just the permission to open your own Ender Chest (or the public one, as defined in the config.yml) from anywhere using/enderchest
or/betterenderchest openinv
.betterenderchest.slots.upgrade1
- get the number of slots in the Ender Chest as defined in the config.yml.betterenderchest.slots.upgrade2
- get the number of slots in the Ender Chest as defined in the config.yml.

Commands
<required argument> [optional argument]
- /betterenderchest deleteinv <player> - delete all items in someone's Ender Chest.
- /betterenderchest give <player> <item> [amount] [damage-value] - give an item to an Ender Chest inventory.
- /betterenderchest list - list all cached Ender Chest inventories. Useful for debugging.
- /betterenderchest openinv [player] - open an Ender Chest remotely.
- /betterenderchest viewinv <player> - view anyone's Ender Chest from anywhere. Editing is disabled.
- /betterenderchest reload - reload the configuration.
- /betterenderchest swapinv <player1> <player2> - swap two Ender Chests.
- /enderchest [player] - alias for /betterenderchest openinv [player]
Tips:
- Instead of typing /betterenderchest you could also type /bec.
- As seen in the permissions section above, it is possible to allow /enderchest but disallow /enderchest [player].
- /enderchest and /betterenderchest openinv (without the playername) normally open your own Ender Chest, but there is a setting in the config.yml to open the public Ender Chest instead.
- Use
--
publicchest as a player name to refer to the public Ender Chest, and use--
defaultchest for the default chest. - Use the syntax groupname/playername to open chests from another group. Example: /bec openinv cavegroup/Notch

The latest file *is* for 1.7.10, I just can't label it as such. For 1.8: well, we need a 1.8 Bukkit implementation first... For 1.7.10-protocol-hack-for-1.8: just use the file for 1.7.10.
When is the 1.7.10/1.8 update being released?
Thanks!
@mod_masta
I just tested the following scenarios with your config file, both work fine.
/enderchest (name)
command. BetterEnderChest imports the chest from vanilla and opens it.plugins/BetterEnderChest/chestData
. Player A opens B's Ender Chest using the/enderchest (name)
command. BetterEnderChest shows the chest.In other words, I don't know what might be causing it to fail on your server.
Do you have an inventory management plugin like MultiInv? If yes, which version?
Yes it's an online server, sorry
@mod_masta
You forgot to answer one question. :)
This is important. UUIDs won't work with BetterEnderChest when using offline UUIDs. In my testing (tried again a few minutes ago), they work fine in online mode. In offline mode, it will fetch the wrong UUID, and the chest won't be found.
@rutgerkok
Spigot 1.7.9
betterenderchest v2.2.5
config: http://hastebin.com/okolayaziw.sm Database isn't used but i just removed it anyway.
@mod_masta
Do you have an online mode server? I have only come across this on offline mode servers (Spigot servers behind Bungeecord count as online mode, they work fine if
bungeecord
is set to true in the spigot.yml).If you have an offline mode servers, UUIDs won't work correctly with this plugin, you must use names instead (set
useUUIDs
to false inplugins/BetterEnderChest/config.yml
). If you have an online mode server, please send the following information (may be in a PM, if you prefer that).CraftBukkit 1.7.10
).I am not able to look into enderchests when players are offline. Any idea what could be causing this?
@wantkiwi
You can do this yourself using the commands.yml file.
Example:
Maybe add an alias? /enderchest - /echest
@Neophytex1988
I'm afraid that command won't work with BetterEnderChest, LWC probably interfaces with the vanilla Ender Chest...
@Neophytex1988
I think that /cdonation is an lwc command, hence why it wouldn't work with betterenderchests, you can use /enderchest or /bec openinv for this plugin as a donation feauture
@rutgerkok
hey - so sorry I must have not been running the latest version of Betterenderchests, im sure I was!
but yeah works fine.
Sorry again
hey the lwc /cdonation works not with my enderchests :( is that my fail or bug? can you help /fix ? :(
@jet315
I'm using that build myself on my server - it works fine for me.
What's not working exactly? Does it fail silently, or is there something in the console (at startup and at chest interation time)? If there is something in the console, could you post it? (pastebin.com, http://dev.bukkit.org/paste or similar please!)
@jet315
Which version of betterenderchest do you use? The spigot 1.8 is a protocol hack, so it should still work for the 1.7.10 version
This isnt working on the spigot 1.8 protocol patches of 1.7.10 build #1649 to support 1.8.
Any idea if this will be sorted - love this plugin and dont want to change :/
Nvm, it works, the problem was that the machine couldn't connect to the mysql database
Minecraft just updated to 1.8 and spigot released a build that makes it possible for 1.8 clients to connect to their 1.7.10 server that is modified: http://ci.md-5.net/job/Spigot/
Enderchests don't work on this build though, is there a quick fix for this?
@rutgerkok
Sorry, didn't see that. Thanks for the clarification!
