Working on the latest builds, no issues found as of yet, but if you find any, don't be afraid to shout!
If you have any requests, post them here and I'll be sure to let you know.

Review by the user jamescosten on the 1.1 release (Highlighted issues contained have now been fixed as of 1.3)

Example Usage of Fence:
A current can be acquired up to two blocks below, or one block on any side and then running a current through.
Then, just wait for someone to try and get through your fence!

Code:

CHANGELOG:

Yeah, I'm going to PM the author. Hopefully they forward to his email. Until then I'll just be posting my forks in this thread.

 

This plugin hasn't been updated in a long time and the author @darksoft has not been active since last month. As such, I am setting this as inactive and allowing @PatrickFreed to fork it and continue supporting it in the author's absence.

Please note: this is pending author approval and/or license requirements, meaning that the author can return at any time and request that we get involved to resolve a dispute provided the license of the project has been violated.

 

@EvilSeph @Ahagen550 @Xertez @AudieMurphy @cvxx7q

Just received a pm back from darksoft

 

wahoo !

congrats @PatrickFreed

now add exploding fence posts XD only kidding dont do that, yet...

still, congratulations and i see this plugin has a good future ahead

long live ElectricFences (and @PatrickFreed)

 

I think I'll be making the new 'thread' in the bukkitdev area. I have school so have been a bit busy. Hopefully I can push out an update tonight because I'm going to be losing power with that hurricane moving in.

 

erm Australia = no hurricane here

ofc you didnt know that but still you make it sound so localized

 

@darksoft thanks for letting PatrickFreed take over the plug-in, and i hope you are able to solve you real life issues

 

Please will you put a new download link. That link does not work.

 

It's in "Inactive" for a reason

Search in the Bukkitdev area and you will find the updated fork PatrickFreed has been working on.

 

@PatrickFreed hey, mind posting a link to your "updated fork?" you have been working on, so those of us who are less internet worthy can find it ?

 

http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/electricfence/#c3

It's the same version we have though, It's just "Updated" as it's not the one darksoft posted.

 

Long weekend = code! Hopefully I can remember what was on the to-do so I can push out an update, lol.

 

What even needs to be done?

Don't try and improve on perfection It won't turn out well
