uSkyBlock
What is uSkyblock
uSkyblock is a surviving game that transport you to a small island in mid-air. You need to try and survive with the minimum resources.
You can with the few given items create a cobblestone generator which you can then use to expand your island.
By doing the challenges (command /challenges or /c) you can earn Items, Money, XP and Special permissions. Some of these items you earn are needed to complete the next challenges.
You can play alone or you can invite your friends (/is invite [playername])to build together on your island.
You can set a warp (/is warp [playername] to show off what you have done on your island. This can be turned on or off at the GUI.
You can set your own biome (/is biome [biomename]).
In Talabrek's version there were a lot of questions about the Chest and Ender_Chest in the GUI. This feature is now made optional and can be removed if needed. However I have made an example set (See below the Third Party Plugins) to use to the full extent.

Donations
As there were many questions asked how to donate for our work and time we always said that we are doing this for the community. We, R4zorax and myself (dutchy1001) do this as a hobby and enjoy the time spent on it. R4zorax as the main developer likes coding and solving of the issues you guys and gals find, my contribution is to answer most of you and troubleshoot through your config's, permissions and sometimes joining your servers to see at first hand what goes wrong and help you fix them. I also maintain the uSkyblock server were the latest version is tested.
Since the plugin is free, and the source-code is open-source, we see no need to further our own cause. But! We'd like to use this opportunity to raise money for charities.
So here we go, we have setup a page were you guys and gals can donate on our behalf.
This website will do all the work for us to donate to a good cause.
We've set the bar to £500 and when this is accomplished we will put up a POLL for the next £500 that way you all can have a say too.
To donate visit JustGiving
We also would like to thank you all for the many positive reactions we have received since we took over from Talabrek. Without you all we wouldn't be were we are now, so thank you too.
Last note:
We can not support Minecraft v1.7.xx anymore as there are to many differences between those versions. Cauldron is not supported, for help ask on their forums.
@MacMasterMac
So when you change the icon with CCG and the text in the translation file they wont work together?
The warp icons in the gui are 2 different sets, 1 for enable and 1 for disable (unlike the "lock"which has only 1 icon). Due to the fact it has 2 different icons this might be the issue that it's not working.
@dutchy1001
That doesn't seem to work... It works when I try to change the icon from Island home (the wooden door to a jungle door) but it needs a lure, when I put nothing in it I don't see any text. When I change the icon it doesn't support i18n anymore I think
EDIT: I know you can change the messages with i18n but it doesn't change the icon, and whenever I change the icon, I can't change the text lol
@cj89898
When submitting a bug always add the output of the command /usb version so we can see what your working with. In your second pastebin I can see your using "v2.5.3-bukkit-1.7.9" which we don't support anymore.
Users can't create islands: http://pastebin.com/YZQ6VE77 Used to be able to create them fine... Also, keeps spamming console with this: http://pastebin.com/DafT6Bcb
EDIT: Deleted some worldguard files and it works.
@MacMasterMac
those messages can be changed with the translation file which you then put in your i18n folder.
I am adding the extra-menu's in v2.7.2. I can change the icons which is good, but something I can't change are the lures... I can make a lure with words but not the same lure as Warp Status: Inactive/active or Island Members 4/6. Any idea how to do that?
@H2oDragon83
your correct there, I dont know why this is and our main coder has said this before to me that it's for some reason not possible to get back to the first time value's.
Maybe soon, as we're gone overhaul the challenges, this issue can be fixed.
challenges are set to the default reset in hours but they never reset the amount required say first time compilation takes two apples 2nd takes 3 but after 48 hours it still asks for 3 and not 2
@dutchy1001
ok thank you :)
@H2oDragon83
Add this bit of code just above the challenges if it's not there already (you might need to uncomment it)
This will stop the updating from the challenges to the defaults after a restart.
im useing Name: uSkyBlock Version: 2.6.8 Description: Ultimate SkyBlock v2.6.8-8cdd5b-408 Language: en (en) and every time i edit the challenges file and reboot it wont load uskyblock plugin after but if i reset the challenge file it will then load Seems to be only when i try and add the give command - op:minecraft:give {player} spawn_egg 1 0 {EntityTag:{id:"Villager"}}
@dutchy1001
worlds are linked, i used your steps to link skyworld and nether using multiverse portals before you implemented the nether islands, the only thing i didnt do is set the distance and protection chunk aligned so yeah thats my issue xD, i will keep this in mind for my next skyblock reset, thanks for clearing it up!
@delsolsi213
First of, Multiverse is 1 of the depended plugins that is needed to use uSkyblock, so support is already there.
The reason your nether isn't working is probably caused that the Distance and protectionRange are not chunk aligned, meaning the value's cant be divided by 32.
The other reason can be (and this will only be for a "normal" nether, not the nether with uSkyblock islands) that the worlds are not properly "linked".
Search the multiverse wiki how to link the worlds.
Last reason I can think of is thet the world name is wrong, it has to be skyworld_nether.
If distance and protectionRange are set for chunk aligned (E.G. 64, 128, 196, 256 etc etc) it will create automatic a skyworld_nether and portals from the skyworld will link automatic.
If you already have an existing skyworld you cant adjust the Distance or protectionRange or it will mess up your world and might even corrupt it, you need a server reset to make these value's work. These settings have to be done when there are no islands present (at the very first start).
@dutchy1001
hey its been a long time since i posted that island nethers didn't work for me, well i found the issue, the issue is im using multiverse to keep my spawn world seperate from the skyblock world and when creating a nether portal and trying to access it it does nothing, it doesnt create a nether island <and i have it enabled in the uskyblock config>
Can you add multiverse support?
Change Log v2.7.2 The plugin.yml update
When updating to the v2.7.X, the conversion is MANDATORY and cant be reversed.
MAKE SURE TO BACK UP BEFORE USING THIS BUILD.
if you have any suggestions let us know
We have changed the page that listed all the commands and permissions. The new page is now called Permissions & Commands and list all the available permissions and commands.
@dutchy1001
I'll will try the register thing, thanks!
@dahbawz
and just only register the new name doesnt want to work either? You could have a look at the island.yml and player.yml (post them on pastebin so I can see) if the /usb island register [nae] isnt working
@dutchy1001
Then it says the player has no island.. Because he did a name change.
His old and his new name both has no island since they do a name change.
@dahbawz
There are 2 commands that will allow you to change the owner of an island, this is the same as when they rename there account.
Commands go as follow:
With the new update v2.7.2 (released soon after this post) it will avoid the "loosing island" issue as we implemented a new UUID system.
Hi,
When A player changes his name, he loses the ownership of his island. His new name also doesn't have a island. I cant make the player owner of his old island. It say both the old name and the new name have no island?
Version 2.6.14
