SimplyConnect
Information
Doing A Complete Code Overhaul
What is the purpose?
The purpose of this plugin is to connect two or more servers together using sockets, mostly chat.
Why is this needed?
This plugin was made because there are not really any simple cross server chat plugins out there. This plugin is perfect for proxy servers!
What are the features?
Request Features Here
Features include:
- Cross server chat functionality
- Anti-Caps functionality
- Customizable chat format
- Permissions Supported!
- Color codes supported!
- More to come!
Usage?
First download Vault and a supported Chat Plugin To use the plugin just drag and drop into your plugins folder. After the first run a default config will be loaded. This contains customizable options such as chat format and servers to connect to! (Servers You Want To Connect To Must Have This Plugin Enabled!) To test if the setup works: OPTION ONE: Go on one server and say something then check the console of the other for your message same with the first console. OPTION TWO: Get plenty of people and go on different configured servers and start chatting...
Commands?
- /sc chat [on|off] (turns chat on or off)
Setup?
With the simplicity of the plugin setup can be a bit confusing though it is easier then I will make it sound. Refer to the following config for help or message me for help. Also config variables can be found here: Variables

But i can tell it's trying to...cuz it makes a tick set back by about 51...
No I didn't port forward
And there's no error...just...nothing...
@frozenfire43
Did you port forward the ports you chose?
If you get an error in console, send that.
help! i got the plugin and set up the IPs and no one can chat at all? not even op and even if they do /sc chat on it says its on..but its not working...please help
@yanniclord
No problem, I sent you a message, check your inbox. ;)
Sorry Colton, not your fault in this, it was AsieLib, the least i suspected to cause issues. Im sorry for all trouble.
I found out that in 1.7.10, EssentialsChat doesnt seem to be working, removing SimplyConnect showed me that the chat was plain white, however doing colored chat messages worked, so its the fact that prefixes dont work, also nicknames dont, so its in Essentials in general, thats my assumption atleast.
So any news yet Colton? Im just waiting for this plugin to be fixed basicly, then i can open the dual server for DNS again, i got everything already setup, but dont stress ;D
@ColtonGriswold
Oh of course, the latest SimplyConnect V_2.2.1
@yanniclord
Okay... I mean what plugin version? :P
@ColtonGriswold
Im using cauldron-1.7.10-1.1199.01.162-server.jar
@yanniclord
What version of it ya using?
@ColtonGriswold
Could you please fix this for 1.7.9-1.7.10? As of this is what happens when you connect servers with simply connect:
@yanniclord
Fix: You cant turn it off, but instead set limit from 50.0 to 10000000 for example wich would allow all the text to be in caps.
Cant turn off caps restriction :/
@yanniclord
Seems alright for now :)
@ColtonGriswold
Always a pleasure :) If you could give me some feedback if it was clear and understandable enough or not, i could remake it or fix it if so.
@yanniclord

Btw: Video is in 1080p, just takes some time for Youtube to render up incase you watch the video very soon after upload.
I should make a setup tutorial on this, so you can put it in your description so people have it a bit easier to configure it, i start working on it :)
