Magic Chest

Table of Contents

Nobody enjoys rummaging through inventories to organize the contents. Why not hand that job down to the gremlins? Magic Chest auto-sorts your inventories while you have them closed, so that when you open them they are completely sorted and it's easy to find your stuff.

How It Works

1. Stacks of the same material are combined.

2. Stacks are sorted by item name.

3. Stacks of the same item name are sorted by Data (i.e. Wool Color)

4. Stacks with the same name and Data are sorted by Quantity (So the incomplete stack will be last)

Note: Chests that are renamed in an anvil or that do not have the default Minecraft inventory title are excluded from sorting.

Okay, I have a few plugins that aren't blocked by this, specifically TARDIS, all the control panels in the console room auto-sort. After turning mgcs off it fixed it. Could you perhaps put that in on a next release? Also, EasyTrading isn't blocked either.
http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/tardis/
http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/easytrading/
Also, how do I make it where regular players can toggle it on and off? My OP can toggle it, but even though my player account has perms (default players have the perms) it says I don't have permission to perform the command. Okay, read about the "magicchest.sort" option for turning on and off, but I have an issue: It says "your permissions do not allow you to sort chests". I have it set to ignore everything BUT chests...so what's the issue?

When I run this in the config:

# force sorting on override all (force sorting and turn off all commands) override: true default_sorting: true

No players are getting there inventories auto sorted except for OPs and they can do /magicchest. :(

Thanks for showing me the thread. I've been keeping up with Spigot but I didn't see that yet. I will be updating MagicChest to 1.8 soon. Not sure how long it will be released here though. I will keep everyone up to date though.

Thanks for taking care of that for me. I guess I didn't catch that is was a Java problem.

Nope, I took care of that as soon as I heard that the IDs wouldn't be around for long. It has sorted by item name since v1.2.0 :)

This will probably be incompatible with 1.8 since it will not have item IDs, huh?

You don't have Java 7. Install the JRE java and JDK and that error should not come up.

version 51.0 is a Java version (although version 55 came out recently)

I have a feeling that this is a server or plugin conflict problem. Try setting up magicchest on a test server and running it by itself and rule out other issues that may be a plugin or a bad bukkit build.

Hi,

I have a problem with Bukkit-1.7.2-R0. Same for brand new 1.7.8, but Bukkit-1.7.2-R0 is sufficient.

When I start up the server it tells me:

I'm sorry, but did you download v1.2.4? I tested the compat personally and everything seemed fine. Did I miss something? Possibly link me to some screenshots? Can you tell me how to reproduce the problem?

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to add compatibility with SkillAPI! However, it seems we're not at 100% compatibility as the Skills menu is still being sorted by MGCS, making it impossible to add skill points.

Yes, I will consider a toggle command such as /sort in the upcoming builds.

Can you make the command '/sort'? It will help a lot of players getting confused.
