Telekinetic Reality
Brief description: Telekinetic Reality adds survival-based block levitation/physical abilities (telekinesis) to minecraft. TR also adds a unique graphical skill tree interface to aid in ability leveling/progression.
Lore: Behind the illusion that we perceive as reality, there is another fabric. This surface is more pliable, more easily manipulated. In fact, it is so flexible that beings which exist in the conscious dimension are capable of grasping control... ...that is, beings with adequate mental capacity...
Are you capable of controlling the illusion?
Welcome to Telekinetic Reality.
This is a project that has existed for well over a year. It has evolved into a plugin that melds neatly with ordinary survival. Players will, after discovering telekinesis, spend time honing their skills to suit their survival needs. This is not a plugin that is meant to extend the end-game of minecraft, nor is it a plugin to push rivals past the point of defeat. Telekinetic Reality (TR) aims to create a convenience for users, to fuel bonds among players whose skills compliment each other. As players progress through TR they will be presented with a number of choices they cannot revert. These choices are aimed to separate players from one another, to make their skill set unique in such a way that their presence benefits players with other skill sets.

This question has already been answered. As I said earlier; "You need to hold shift and hold right click while looking at a block. The 'Levitation' node itself actually decreases the time you have to hold right click and crouch."
Why is it when i try to use telekinesis its not working do i have to hold it for a while or something?
Add command nodes and maybe some extra features such as an admin tree :D
@impa789
What I am trying to say is that it is not my priority to optimize plugin to plugin interactions. You can run this plugin along with other plugins, however TR will not send or receive data from other plugins. E.g. Players could still levitate blocks in regions protected by World Guard. As for the levitation problem, you need to hold shift and hold right click while looking at a block. The "Levitation" node itself actually decreases the time you have to hold right click and crouch.
@osreboot
Alright, sounds good. Though if I did like it enough and my players are happy I'd be inclined to donate or "buy" it. ;)
You say it wont be compatible with any other plugins as of now, does that mean we cant have any other plugins running? and also i cant use telekinesis for some reason. or i dont understand how XD it tells me to shift and right blick on the block i wanna lift.
@taylormarek
No, the plugin will never be paid. I'm going to leave the plugin up on this page in it's demo version for a while, just to see how things work out. I'm thinking about trying to find a week to livestream the final stages of development, then I'll upload the full version to this page at the end of the week. :P Don't worry, I'm not trying to do any monetary stuff (not even sure that is allowed on Bukkit).
So if one were to get the full version, would this be paid or are you just going to throw out teasers here on BukkitDev? Just wondering ;)
@Creeperslig
Yes, you put the .jar inside the plugins folder. If the plugin is working correctly you should see a folder by the name of 'tr_playerdata' generate inside the main server directory, and the command '/syntax' will open a inventory GUI. Please PM me if that does not work or if you have any other problems.
@GTNoobasaurus
There are currently 5 individual skill nodes in the demo. They will appear as you level up existing nodes.
@osreboot
Okay thanks. Are there other skills implemented yet? Because when I bring up the menu for the plugin I only see levitation as an unlockable skill.
I cant get the plugin to work?? Am i missing something? What i did was download the .jar and put it in my Plugins folder? is that right??
@GTNoobasaurus
As I said earlier anything you do with telekinesis will have a chance of progressing towards skill points, you just need to keep trying to levitate blocks. As for the damage and negative potion effects, that is intentional. It balances the plugin, makes it more difficult to begin TR and gives the players something to spend skill points on. The skill node "Exemption" (unlocked after a few levels of "Levitation") will help counter these effects.
EDIT: To avoid death early-game you can hold shift and left click in the air to drop any blocks you are currently levitating.
After I stared at a block I unlocked levitation. I then stared at it again but when it levitates it hurts me and I die. I don't know how to get skill points after that.
Looks promising.
@osreboot
oh ok thanks
@18jester81
This means you need to buy the ability with skill points. If you do not have any skills yet you will have to hold shift and right click simultaneously while looking at a block. You will eventually gain a skill point, however it will take a very long time (5-10 minutes).
@oserboot so i was trying to practice levitation but when i opened the skill tree it says it wasn't activated
@kuja130
Anything you do with telekinesis will have a chance of progressing towards skill points (some things more than others, but I won't spoil anything).
