ExploreMode
ExploreMode
Description
Allows users to enter Explore Mode, which lets them fly around to get the lay of the land without having the ability to do anything while flying. Also returns them to their original location when they exit Explore Mode, stopping them from getting lost or getting places they shouldn't while having the ability to modify the world.
Commands
All commands are prefixed with /exploremode or /explore
explore - enters the user into Explore Mode, which allows them to fly around, but they cannot interact with the world at all. They also cannot give/receive damage from entities in the world.
explore time - same as explore, but with a time limit in seconds
explore player - enters the specified player into Explore Mode
explore player time - same as above, but with a time limit in seconds
return - returns the user to the place they entered Explore Mode and disables flight and re-enables world interaction.
return player - returns the specified player from Explore Mode.
timeleft - shows the player their remaining explore time
timeLeft player - shows the player’s remaining explore time
Permissions
exploremode.*: Gives access to all ExploreMode commands.
exploremode.explore: Allows user to utilize the explore command. default: true
exploremode.return: Allows user to utilize the return command. default: true
exploremode.modothers: Allows user to change Explore Mode state of others. default: op

Posted Mar 15, 2013I just found this and it is just what I was looking for!
But unfortunately I can trigger creepers in exploremode (when I start exploring from survival). And I would like to set it so that players can only use it if they are on the surface (y>64), for building. To prevent them from locating resources in caves without walking through them. Also the timer thing that Wolf mentioned.
The plugin is such a great idea though.

Posted Dec 22, 2012Great mod wrist, love it. Thanks for making it :)
EDIT: Hmm, the timer should be a permission IMO instead of a command. Say you want someone to be able to explore, but only for limited time

You could always get a command alias plugin like CommandHelper

Posted Nov 2, 2012You can still kill mobs like Sheep and Pigs when in /explore. I have not tested this but you can probably still kill players. Please update this so you can not interact with any entitles. Thanks!

Posted Oct 25, 2012Sorry I've been AWOL guys >< I've gotten caught up in a huge plugin I took over, so I've neglected this, despite it being a cool idea (given, Turrets is a really really cool idea, so ya :P). The good news is I've learned lots of cleaner ways to do stuff while figuring out Turrets things, so, if I can ever find a spare minute, I'll update this plugin with some cleaner, neater features.
And to the three posts before this one, I can and will do all those :)

Posted Oct 24, 2012Can you make a permission that the player automatically starts in the mode?

Posted Oct 21, 2012Just for giggles, you should make the command (or add an additional alias) just be: /explore, it's a bit simpler and nicer :)

Posted Oct 21, 2012this seems like a useful concept, but for me to use it, i have one suggestion...
in the config, have a world and coordinate for the player to be teleported to when the user uses /exploremode explore

Posted Oct 20, 2012Okee dokee, so I finished some of that stuff. I don't have the option not to teleport back yet, but I did add a timer to it, which was actually more work than I thought it would be. The restructuring of the code made it possible though :) Also added a little extra functionality in random ways.
Here's the link to the new version, which is still being approved (I just uploaded it). I also have a pretty ChangeLog to go with it so you can see what I changed.

I'll work on both of these :)
Also while doing this I'm going back and cleaning up some of the code I already wrote. It all works okay, but isn't technically the most correct way to do things. Just a heads up on if it seems like it's taking a little bit of time (not to mention I have to do the same thing for the other plugins I recently made :) )
Also, I may redo the commands so they all fall under /exploremode ("/exploremode explore" and "/exploremode return" for example)

If you have essentials installed on to your server, then give the donator rank, or person, the permission essentials.fly then that allows the user to do /fly, so they can fly around. If you do not have essentials installed on your server, then i suggest you get it, as it is a very useful plugin, and contains lots of cool and useful commands. Link: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/essentials/ And i think this plugin is pretty cool, but if you just want the user to be able to fly around then getting essentials is the way to go.

Posted Oct 18, 2012I was looking for a plugin similar to this, except I really want it so that you don't teleport back to the original location.
I wanted to use flying as a donator benefit, but I think it would kinda screw up pvp for the non-donators. So being able to fly without causing dmg is perfect :)
So I would love it, if you could make a new version, or just make it configurable so that you can turn off the teleport back. Thanks!

Posted Oct 16, 2012Oh, I should mention that the idea wasn't mine. It was requested by Wolf3141 (in this thread: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/spectate.105730/ )
It looked like a really cool idea though, so I just had to try making it.

Posted Oct 16, 2012Very nice plugin. very original in idea as well.
It would come in handy. sadly though I can't rly use it because any member on my server can fly. :/
It wouldn't be as useful. but for the typical survival server...this would be amazing.
