PistonChest
You can now give pistons certain abilities which extend their basic boring nature.
Supports:
- LWC (command 'pcpassword <password>' allows the user to assign a password to a piston, to give to LWC password protected chests)
- Lockette
- Secure Chests
About:
Whenever you place a piston it will be registered in your name. This prevents players from destroying them or claiming them for themselves. PistonChest supports the above plugins which can prevent a piston from accessing a chest if they do not have permission. In this plugin there are certain abilities which modify how the piston behaves, and can be combined to create the ultimate machine. The basic ability is being able to push and retrieve blocks and items from a chest. In order to add an ability the player must use the specified tool (default: stick) then right click on their piston to bring up a GUI from where they can either add items to use abilities or simply turn them on and off. See below for a list of abilities...
To Install,
- Copy and paste the 'PistonChest.jar' file into the plugin folder...
No more need for Commands!
Use a stick by default to modify your piston functionality! (Version 1.8)

@WarmakerT
Hey I finished the next update and added it so it pushes drops too! :) However Im not too sure what you mean by monsters and animals config?
This is just like in Tekkit. Awesome.
You can make chest be full of cobblestone with generator :P
I really like this idea.
Nice :D Good job ;) Could you make it so it can push drops too? :) Edit.: And maybe with monsters and animals(config)?
@ger999
haha ok no problem, i can do that for you :) I have just done it for the chest, just have to do it for the dispensers and furnaces. Also with LWC, they seem to be having an error in their code atm, prevent the pistons from retracting from a protected chest. however. I have sent them a message, and hopefully they fix that soon. Otherwise i may have to remove the piston listener for their chests. which i dont want to do. hah.
Can you make your plugin like this:
