MagicArrows
Note: All of my projects have been converted to public domain. See http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/moarrows/ for more information.
Intro: You grasp the arrow in your hands, speak the ancient language, and the arrow takes on a fierce blue glow. A moment later, a creeper is frozen solid after being pierced through the skull with a new kind of weapon. You, the users, have spoken. You want magic arrows? You got 'em! As if you didn't have enough to choose from, now use even MORE arrow types with this brand new "add-in" for MoArrows. This plugin uses the MoArrows API to add 10 new projectiles to your arsenal. Please note, this is NOT a standalone plugin. It -requires- MoArrows version 2.2.0 or later to run. .
Features:
- - Add magic arrow types to MoArrows!
- - health, harm, ice, sap, capture, volley, push, pull, water, wall
- - Perfect for an arcane archer class!
- - see -this page- for detailed descriptions of all arrow types.
- - Use the magic arrows separately, or combine effects with MoArrows types to create amazing combos! (i.e. poison ice arrow anyone?)
- - Control who can use what arrows with the MoArrows permissions support!
- - Add item costs for arrow types! Want the player to have 2 ice blocks for an ice arrow? No problem!
- - Add up to 10 item type requirements (64 items per requirement max) per arrow!
- - (You will never need more than this.)
- - New cooldown support in addition to the item requirement system!
- - Use each system independantly, or in combination.
- - (Cooldowns only apply to MagicArrows arrow types.)
- - All of the same region protection support you get from MoArrows!
Installation:
- Install MoArrows v2.2.0 (or later) first! -see this page-.
- Delete or remove previous version's MagicArrows files from the server's plugin directory (if applicable)
- Run the server with the MagicArrows jar in the plugins folder to generate the default config
- Edit config to your desire (see the default config -on this page-)
- Install a permissions plugin, preferably PermissionsBukkit 1.6 or PermissionsEX 1.19.1
- (optional) Install WorldGuard and WorldEdit
- Add or remove permissions to your liking (see sample permissions -on this page-)
- Restart your server for all changes to take effect
- TEST YOUR SETUP before going live with your users!
- Submit questions or bug reports if necessary
Usage:
- left click WITH ARROW to cycle through arrow types
- Shift+left click to cycle backwards
- /magicarrows help - shows a quick command reference
- /magicarrows help [arrowtype] - displays arrow summary and required materials
- /magicarrows reload - reloads all config.yml values
- /magicarrows version - displays the server's version of MagicArrows
Permissions:
magicarrows.use.all (enabled for OPs by default)
magicarrows.bypassmaterials (enabled for OPs by default)
magicarrows.bypasscooldowns (enabled for OPs by default)
magicarrows.dualeffect (allows combined arrow effects, i.e., poison + ice)
magicarrows.use.[arrow type goes here]
magicarrows.help
magicarrows.reload (enabled for OPs by default)
Arrow types are currently health, harm, ice, sap, capture, volley, push, pull, water, and wall.

Donations:
This software is, and always will be, free for anyone to use at any time. If you own a server that receives donations based partially on the use of this (or any other) plugin, please remember the hours of work it takes to develop, test, update, and repair the plugins that you use. Support your hard working developers with a donation of your own! =)
Special thanks: A big shout out goes to Shanko (pvpzone.nx.tc:25600) for being the first server owner to beta test for me. I couldn't have completed the Towny support without the testing from Zombiemold (realmsofminecraft.dyndns.org). Factions support wouldn't have happened without Imkingoflive and spacecakexD. Also, I am incredibly grateful for those of you who've donated to this project so far, as well as those of you who are considering doing so in the future. Last, but not least, thanks to all of you, MoArrows is currently #43 on the Curse.com Top 100 Server Mods and climbing. I never imagined this plugin would get that popular. Thank you!

And here is a perfect example of ignorant people. He CLEARLY states in the "Special Thanks" section of the MoArrows page, that it's based on MultiArrow's source code. He simply improved it, and added new arrows.
MagicArrows was written by him, based on what he learned when working on MoArrows. If you don't like that he used another's source code, get off of Bukkit Dev, and go back to closed-source gaming.

Posted Oct 13, 2013Nice plugin bro. Nice job giving zero fucks about the people who you took ideas from. Before you respond, I know what the response is.. "Oh, well I wrote this whole plugin myself without any outside influence or code from other developers." Don't even pretend like you made this whole idea up yourself. Maybe you should at least give credit where credit is due.
People like you made me quit Minecraft. Keep devving for a while, and you'll quit too because people will take your ideas and pretend it was their idea too.

Posted Sep 5, 2012Just a heads up - The Ice Arrow, Wall Arrow and Capture Arrow remove any blocks that occupy the same space as the arrows effect. This was used to gain access to locked chests and destroy protected land on my server.

Posted Aug 24, 2012I know that you're not updating this plugin anymore, but is there any reason why you don't plan on absorbing/have not absorbed most of these features? I just found out about MoArrows (and MagicArrows) and some of these abilities are REALLY neat. I run a PvP Factions server, so I thought having MoArrows by itself would increase the archer's potential by a lot, and having the ability to do things like heal would also make it possible to act as a "healer" of sorts. (I myself LOVE the bow and arrow. I just think the vanilla bow is extremely under appreciated)

I'm really sorry, I'm asking tons of things and most of 'em very stupid :( sorry. I have moarrows last version, magicarrows last version, permissionbukkits last version and craft bukkit 1.2.5 r1

Posted May 2, 2012Is there a way to do that if you don't have materials for one magic arrow you skip it, like in the moarrow plugin?

Posted Apr 26, 2012As you said on you're other mod, would be great to see an option to disable the "Default OP" options so they have to follow the usage and cooldown rules :)

Posted Apr 16, 2012Please understand guys that this is kind of the red-headed stepchild of MoArrows. I threw this together to satisfy a relatively small user base. When it comes to updates and improvements, MoArrows will always come first.
@kcorb90
Also a possibility. Aside from using the bow (which I don't for a reason), this is the most intuitive option. I'll mull it over.
@danielboyz
It's a possibility. I'll keep in mind when I need to update the version. And also I will not add these arrows to MoArrows. I separated them for a reason.

Posted Apr 14, 2012Can you add it so we can change what changes the arrow type? Right now I use voxel sniper which also uses arrows to left click and edit.

Posted Apr 14, 2012Awesome, I like the water, heal and sap arrows a lot!
But can you add a -1 (infinite) duration to water arrows and the others with duration. (Could you also add this to MoArrows?)

Nope. This plugin is separated from MoArrows for a reason.. actually, a few reasons.
