Hey I was wondering if it was posable to have a plug in that stops a player from being able to swim/go in water? I have a New RPG Server coming out witch players start out on a island and take bridges to go to other lands to learn about the world. What I don't want to happen is player just swim to the main town. So i'm asking if there is some way to make player not be able to swim. Either by giving water damage or making it so you can not float (and eventually drown). So let me know if this is possible! or if you can make this for me. Thanks!!
I think there's plug-ins that do damage in water. Edit: Found this: Click me. It actually heals a person in water, but a negative value could probably do damage. I haven't actually used it though, so you'll have to try for yourself.
Go see this plugin: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/fun-mech-ironboots-v0-11-swim-and-sink-zelda-style-860.22228/ He makes it so you can't swim while wearing iron boots. You should ask him for an option, so that it's always on, instead of only when wearing iron boots. That way people would sink to the bottom of the ocean if they tried to swim across the ocean, and would drown before they could get anywhere
