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.
whitespace hack
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.
whitespace hack
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

I have something else in mind.
Make a chest completely private to the user, the chest would be inaccessible, unbreakable by other users. I know you could set LWC to auto register EnderChest's as private but users could easily remove or modify this protection. Unless you know something I don't?
Thanks again.
@3ptO
Ender Chests are already private in the default settings - even chests that are not protected by Lockette or LWC, even when one of those plugins is installed. Only ops and the ones who you have granted permission can look in someone else's Ender Chest. Or do you mean something else?
Hello, Would it be at all possible to make Ender Chests completely, individually private?
At all times.
Thanks

There are only two upgrades at the moment, the next version will feature as many upgrades as you want.
defaultSlots: 9 slotsUpgrade1: 18 slotsUpgrade2: 27 slotsUpgrade3: 36 slotsUpgrade4: 54
These are my slot settings, however permissions for upgrade3 and upgrade4 only show 9 slots even though upgrade1 and upgrade2 show the correct amount of slots for the player.
any ideas?
@Maddis1337
At the moment, BetterEnderChest should throw all items on the ground if they don't fit in the chest anymore. I wouldn't really like it if some items are locked away just because the player hasn't donated this month.
I think it would be great if users who lose the permission for extra space do not loose the items in the new spots but can get them back if they get the permission back. Did that make sense?
Ah yes, didn't see that lol

Try 1.1.4.

The number of rows only updates when the owner opens his/her chest with a right-click. Next release will also change it when the owner opens his chest using the command.
Cool mod, but I am having issues. I made the default slots 27, and the first upgrade 54. Now, when I assign the betterenderchest.rows.upgrade1 permission to those who deserve it, they still only have 3 rows.
I have tried reloading BEC via the "/bec reload" command, and reloaded GroupManager's permissions. Still showing 3 rows. What's up?
@3ptO
No, but you can set the default slots to 27 and the first upgrade to 54 and deny the permission betterenderchest.user.open to the users which shouldn't access the Ender Chest.
Possible to set defaultSlots to 0 so that they're not allowed to access the Ender Chest without the "betterenderchest.rows.upgrade1" granting 27 slots and "betterenderchest.rows.upgrade2" granting 54 slots.
@rutgerkok
Thank you for the response.
@3ptO
Not really. Which inventory would need to drop? Placed Ender Chests don't have an owner, unless they are protected by Lockette or LWC (but that would destroy the purpose of protecting it). If you want to drop the inventory of the last one who opened the Ender Chest, you would need to track which player opens which chest.
.
Possible to set a player's Ender Chest as destroyable by explosion for raiding.
@Skyfalin
Sorry for the late reply. Didn't receive the notification.
Anyway, it's now done in the source code: there can now be as many upgrades as you wish. I'll try to fix the shift-click bug soon, and then it's time for another release.
@rutgerkok
Hey can you add another upgrade for slots please?
Is it possible to add another upgrade for slots?
