Bukkit

Well, this is akward. In short, a lot unfortunately things has happened while I was inactive around here, including death of an family member and own health issues. However, I also started an company and have recently discussed bringing plugins back with help of company provided development server and support (dedicated websites and such). So something is happening and I will inform soon as I get more information and things are finalized.

Hi, I have tried playing around with tutorial video creation but I really suck at creating those. Best I can offer is skype support and possible jumping into server to show the basics including the setup.

Currently I am almost finished with first phase of my own game development, so I should have little bit more free time (due to waiting other stuff to be completed) with updating plugin and providing "live server" support if need.

So while checking on the update, I realized I had forgotten to write configure.yml or messages.yml documents for the updates, meh. So small delay on the update, I will do quick and dirty document draft and then update both files and pages at the same time (tho now it's time to sleep).

Small warning that I wont go into in-depth details with documents but hopefully provide enough information, if not, you can always contact me and ask help to figure out something.

Currently only

Message-Color-Error: RED 
Plugin error messages color. 

Message-Color-Normal: GOLD 
Plugin normal message colors.

affects message colors, this means I have not included color support for individual message strings, yet at least.

I wont be adding new features to already promised update which has been under testing with few servers, but I can look into expanding color support for individual message strings in upcoming updates.

Reminder, for better and faster support (and if you want to chat with me about something outside public comments), I have Skype and Steam for that. If you decide to add me, please inform me that you are from dev.bukkit.org, your username here and what plugin you are going use (FCP or blFriends), otherwise I will automatic reject invites (due to spam shit and random invites).

Skype: cafestol (current display name is CoffeeOD CaffeineOD).
Steam: CoffeeOD

Next update will be the same update that people have been testing (but failed to provide feedback or bug reports), hopefully as public alpha release we can get ball rolling with the bug reports and such. Update is planned this weekend, around saturday/sunday.

So what about the future? I'm willing to support other solution with FCP if Bukkit goes down for good, same goes with Factions, as long plugin has "team/clan" or some kind of group functions I'm more than happy to look into supporting different plugins.

@RaininSwords

Shame to hear that they are having problems. Microsoft is able to to go good things but I understand why people are worried, I assume only time will tell. For me this seems like Oculus Rift and Facebook situation, intresting times ahead I'm sure.

@Benno812

FCP already includes basic color support for normal and error messages including option to modify messages as you wish, look at messages.yml.
