I am wanting to install citizens and want to use the economy and permissions, it says I have to install Vault, I have PermissionsBukkit and still want these features, so do I Have to install Vault or is there another alternative, if not I need the basic rundown of how to use Vault as I can't find anything very useful on their page. Thank you everyone!
Vault, is a permissions/chat/economy hook. So if it find an economy plugin, then it chooses it. Same thing with perms and chat plugins. There is basically no config for vault, all you have to do is put the jar in your plugins folder and that's it. More info there.... But this is its basic use. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/vault/
So, Citizens isn't on the list of plugins compatible with vault, will it still recognize it? So if I am understanding correctly Vault would see I have PermissionsBukkit and Citizens and somehow tell citizens that people have the permissions?
Citizens, is supported, if i am correct. since it works with my server normally. The only weird things would happen is that your perms plugin would think the npc's are real players and assign them perms. But that is as weird as it would get. Plugins will only check for their dependencies. But yeah.
