LaserPointer
LaserPointer - Point to where you are looking
Version: v0.3
LaserPointer creates a red wool "dot" where you are looking while you look around for you to show others where you are looking. Also functions as an impromptu stool, if you want.
LaserPointer supports language translation: Simply edit the "lang" file to change anything LaserPointer says.

Im just being curious, not critical, but why not make it place a redstone torch on walls, and a redstone dust on the floor. other than the problem with it lighting up the area, it would work well. maybe it could be used to activate redstone at a distance.
update please

You sir, just made my day and i am going to be making a version of this plugin, and you just gave me an idea to include in it! Heres a link to the thread, the download link will soon be up: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/wip-minepointer-a-laser-pointer-for-minecraft.119847/
Dear my fine friend, Nuclear Watermelon.
I would like to file an official complaint against the blatant and terrible lack of two features I feel would be necessary to provide the best and most fulfilling experience for the plugin user.
When using your plugin, I was shocked and appalled to discover that cats did not chase the points cast by your laser-simulating plugins.
Please could you rectify this terrible lack of functionality to provide a most fulfilling and wondrous experience for my server users.
Yours Sincerly,
Mr Bluebear the Third
Would be great if :
a) It returned the status of a LMB / RMB press
b) returned it's current position wirelessly (maybe using the RedstoneChips wireless plugin ?)

Is it possible to make the wool block a non solid block? It looks like it can be used to suffocate mobs and players from a distance. Other than that this mod is a great idea.
