RankSigns
Description:
RankSigns is a rank up plugin in which you can rank up or buy permission nodes via signs. It also uses economy to rank up or buy permissions. All you have to do is set up a simple RankSigns sign. This plugin requires Vault and a permissions and economy plugin that supports Vault. This plugin has many more features to add. If you have a suggestion, let me know. Thank you for downloading and enjoy the plugin.
New Version Released! (February 6, 2014)
- Just an update to 1.7.2
Setting up a RankSigns sign:
Making the signs can be confusing. Please take a look at the image at the top right corner of the page if you are having problems.
- Line 1: [RankSign] OR [PermSign] OR whatever you have specified in the config
- Line 2: The Rank or Permission node that is being sold
- Line 3: Price (This can also be set to free, or left blank if you set the currency to none)
- Line 4: Unused, but maybe time?
Config:
- currency: Can be set to none (allowing line 3 to be blank) or money
- Shorter Permissions: With this feature in the config, you can have a permission node that doesn't fit on a sign renamed to something that will fit on the sign. An example is already available in the config. You can do as many as you want and even rename permissions that already do fit on the sign. With this feature, the permission in permsign.buyperm.[permission] will not be the shorter version, it will be the actual permission node. This new feature can be confusing, so if you need help I will be glad to help!
- Sign Headers: Edit the first line which indicates a rank/perm sign
Permissions:
- ranksign.buyrank: Gives permission to buy all permissions
- ranksign.buyrank.[rank]: Gives permission to buy a rank from a RankSign
- permsign.buyperm: Gives permission to buy all permissions
- permsign.buyperm.[permission]: Gives permission to buy a perm from a PermSign
- ranksign.create: Gives permission to create RankSigns
- permsign.create: Gives permission to create PermSigns
Commands:
- /ranksigns: Shows version of plugin and what you can do based on your permissions.
Tutorial:
JamsyBoy14 was able to make a tutorial video for this plugin. Be sure to thank him and subscribe! I hope this video can help you guys.
When ever anyone of my staff uses the sign it changed their permissions to that instead of retaining their current group. Is there a way to exclude groups or players of a group from being changed from their primary group to the sign group and yet obtain the updated permissions without changing the sign?
Today I'm gonna add a small feature, then work on item economies, and then there's not much more to add other than trying to add time to the forth line.
@soysuva
Can you message me a picture of your sign and tell me what version you are using?
@Bballheat
Doesn't work with group-manager too. Tried it and no one my server was able to click the sign to rank up.
@Solstice85
That's weird. I use group manager so I can't really help. If anyone with PermissionsBukkit is having this problem please comment. Also, note that it only adds the rank to the world you are currently in.
This plugin doesn't seem to work with PermissionsBukkit. It will take your money and show the message of the rank you bought but doesn't implement the rank change.
@Chimunkyman
Sadly, I've never done anything with time and I still need to learn that, but it is planned, I just don't know when.
Having an ability to "cheapen" the price of the previous rank would be nice.
Example:
Elite rank: 20,000 Lord Rank: 60,000
However, if you have or bought Elite rank, Lord rank is only 40,000
@Bballheat
You should make it so that you can buy if for a certain amount of time in use of the 4th line
@NicodeHero
I tried a long time ago, but since then I have done lots of experiments with items and inventorys so this could be coming soon.
Hey this is a really cool plugin and I understand that you might not have time to add new things because of school or something but could you add a way so that you can buy permissions using items? Like: [PermSign] your.permission.here DIAMOND 16 Since the Line 4 is unused? Thanks and I would appreciate it if you took the time to read this but otherwise I LOVE this plugin keep it up!
@BOBBOBL
I'm adding it at this very moment. EDIT: Done, tested, and ready for upload!
@BOBBOBL
And BTW, you should think about adding a permission node that makes it so when you have the perm, you can buy any perm :)
@Bballheat
Oh, ok thank you. XD Its just that the * worked for me in the last version o.0 ty
@BOBBOBL
It's really confusing to think about. I'm trying to think, but with the permission permsign.buyperm.*, that would just allow you to buy the * permission node.
@Bballheat
HI I totally love this plugin, and the contents. I used a previous version of this and I gave permsign.buyperm.* to everyone and that worked. However, when I updated and reinstalled everything, everyone got a "You do not have permission to buy this permission" Help? xD
@Squawkers13
I never though of adding a * permission node. Good idea. Also it only works in the current world just because that it how it is added. Most permissions system have a "mirror" feature. Research that and it should help you.
@Squawkers13
The perms bought only work in the world the player buys it in- why is that??
permsign.buyperm.* dosen't work. How do I make it so someone can buy all perms?
@Bballheat
It was an example, it just is now allowing users with the correct perm to use the signs, the idea is you can upgrade your kit using money which you get from pvp and then you can buy the new class (I have a gui that lists the kits) and it will take the money
