floAuction
floAuction - In-game auction software
There are no supported versions of floAuction v3.0.x higher than 3.0.4.
floAuction provides a powerful chat based auction system with many options to help control "spam" and scams and many customizable features making it perfect for any server. Help support development of floAuction: Donate
Notable Features!
floAuction has too many customizable features to reasonably put on the main page here, but here's a list of notable ones.
- Full language customization, even (with the use of WhatIsIt) item names themselves.
- Auction house, silent auctions, sealed auctions, countdown suppression, individual opting-out of all auctioning, and many other "spam" limiting features!
- Reserves funds (i.e. removes them from the player account), ability to disable auctioning damaged and renamed items, full item details displayed, and other abuse and scam prevention features!
- Percent of winnings or price per auction taxes, limits on max's and min's of different auction aspects, banned items list and other economy protection features!
- And, finally ss of the release of floAuction version 3: Auction scopes. The ability to designate world grouping and create multiple auction houses, each with distinct language and config settings.
A list of main features, complete, in progress, planned and under consideration can be found here. Specific per-version history can be found here. And GitHub here.
Important Notes and Disclaimers
- Before commenting, read the FAQ!
- This plugin requires Vault and WhatIsIt, make sure they're installed if you want floAuction to work.
- floAuction uses PluginMetrics to create pretty graphs and charts on mcstats.org. All the data uploaded to their site is impersonal data, including version numbers of your server and floAuction, hardware capabilities, and ip info. If you are uncomfortable with this, go into your /plugins/PluginMetrics folder, change the "opt-out" value to "true" and restart your server.
- floAuction version 3 uses gravitylow's Updater functionality. You can disable it in floAuction's config.yml by setting "auto-update" to "false" or disable it for all plugins using that code in the /plugins/Updater/config.yml by setting "disabled" to "true". This Updater functionality contacts Bukkit's servers to determine if an update is available and installs it so.
- The GitHub for version 2 has moved to 2.x.x-archive as it is no longer under active development. The 2.x.x branch on GitHub is temporarily being used to develop version 3.
- A number of technical difficulties have corrupted floAuction versions 2.10.0 through 2.10.2, do not use these versions!

Commands
- /auction - Main auction interface, use "/auction ?" in-game for more information, permissions vary per functionality. Requires permission "auction.bid":
- /auc - Shortcut for "/auction" (v2.6.0+)
- /sealedauction same syntax as "/auction" but forces sealed auction. (v2.6.0+)
- /sauc - Shortcut for "/sealedauction" (v2.6.0+)
- /bid [bid amount] [max bid] - Bidding, all parameters optional. If [bid amount] is omitted, bid automatically becomes the current bid + minimum bid increment. In sealed auctions, [bid amount] is required and [max bid] is ignored.
Permissions
- auction.start - Allows creation of auctions.
- auction.bid - Allows bidding on auctions.
- auction.admin - Allows administrative functions including cancelling current auctions, suspending player's auction capability, pausing and restarting auctions. (default: op)
Setup and Configuration
This plugin requires Vault and WhatIsIt.
Click here to view a detailed list of all config options for floAuction version 2 and how to use them. As of the release of floAuction 3, floAuction 2 will no longer be supported. floAuction 3 has all the features that version 2 has, plus more!
Click here to see detailed configuration and setup details for floAuction 3. It is multiple pages, but if you take the time to go through it, you will discover that floAuction is by far the most powerful auction plugin available for Minecraft.
Development Participation
I sometimes upload development or "alpha" versions of my plugin to a folder on my own website. If you would like to participate in helping me make sure these major changes have been well tested before I make an official release here on Bukkit, feel free to visit http://www.flobi.com/projects/floAuction/files/ and download the most recent version available on that site. Read the readme file there before participating. I recommend against using any of these files for any server where you need to guarantee up-time or functionality, but only on development or test servers. If you choose to use these against this recommendation, do so at your own risk (though technically it's your own risk in any case, lol, I'm not guaranteeing anything).

@Author:
Sorry to post again but do you know of any fix to the issue I posted previously?
floauction works fine but regardless of the config file, users can only set increments of 10 and a start bid of 10. Bids and increments can also only be 10 for some reason.
@Author:
Is there an easy way in the API to get open auctions from a specific player?
There is a problem with this plugin:
increments are locked to 10 for some reason. I set the config file to default at 1, yet it defaults to 0 and can only bit in 10's
if i manually in game set increment to any number it sets it to 0 unless its a multiple of 10, then its ok. So i assume some error with it having to be a multiple of 10**
@marine_mca
Depends on the version. With 2, you need to use permissions, but it will only prevent ability. It won't stop the auction announcements. With 3, you can set up different auction scopes. Check page 3 of the config for version 3: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/floauction/pages/configuring-flo-auction-version-3/scopes-section-of/
@marine_mca
Anyone?
Hey, a quick suggestion.
-Disallow canceling an auction when an item has been bid on, no matter how much time is left. Often people auction random things like god picks for cheap, and then cancel. This just creates random spam and if they can't cancel it they won't spam.
@incredinex
Seemed to have fixed with the new Vault update.. I reverted and it worked.. I'll try to get some more testing in
@incredinex, How do i stop players from using floauction in my uskyblock & plotme worlds? i still want to let them use it on regular faction/survival worlds.
Thanks in advance
@MasterGabeMOD
Good. I'll be glad after I get out of my House mindset. That show really screws with the brain. Kinda like Braid. Another good show...though technically a video game.
@incredinex
Worked, thanks for the quick response!
@MasterGabeMOD
Set it to an empty string, i.e. "''". Or, without the quotes, ''
How do I disable the message "Entering auction area: Default Auction Scope" ?
Can you edit the prefix?
@xxtreepuncherxx
Please do. Let me know what you find out. I'll try testing with a currency that's got decimals, it might be a conversion issue.
@josh7554
I haven't been able to find anything wrong with the bid increment. Maybe the "bid-fail-under-starting-bid" issue I posted about a few minutes ago is your issue? Otherwise, directions to replicate the issue would be helpful.
@Analskav
You can accomplish what you requested by changing the auction-info in language.yml to this:
@EatingEmoKids
Please avoid the phrase "latest version" and state the actual version numbers. Thank you.
It appears that there is a language file issue on this line:
It should be %A4, not %A8.
@ExpoPs3
I've tested the default starting bid and it seems to work fine in 3.0.0. I will note that if a person uses "/auc prep" it locks in their personal default, and it's possible that's what you're experiencing.
@Fireblast709
Poppycock!
@dannob123
The server was already out of memory when it loaded NoLagg, you can't expect it to suddenly have memory when you load floAuction. This is not an issue with floAuction from the looks of that log. Besides, floAuction doesn't do anything that would eat up the memory when it loads...or reloads.
@dannob123 don't use /reload, it is known to cause these kind of issues
