Are you editing the right zones.txt file? What is the path to the file?

 

it is serverroot/plugins/EpicZones/zones.txt

I could zip up my server setup if you want to take a look at it.. I reaaaally want this to work

 

That's fine. Submit an issue to the tracker with everything attached.

 

This plugin doesn't seem to work with b493. When I first installed it, the test zones were working properly. After adding my own zones, the entire plugin stopped working. Even if I reinstall it the test zones no longer work.

The first few lines of my zones.txt are

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

test1|world|Test Zone 1|pvp:false regen:false nomobs:false|Entering Test Zone 1...|Leaving Test Zone 1...|0|128|test2 |-20:20 20:20 20:-20 -20:-20
test2|world|Test Zone 2|pvp:false regen:false nomobs:false|Entering Test Zone 2...|Leaving Test Zone 2...|0|128||-10:10 10:10 10:-10 -10:-10

I don't see anything wrong with my own, and considering the default test zones don't work either I'm fairly confident saying it's not an issue with zones.txt, but with the plugin itself somewhere.

The only thing I see changed other than updating my my map from 1.1 to 1.3 is the addition of permissionSystem: GroupManager in config. I changed it to Permissions, and even deleted it outright. Neither seem to fix the plugin.

 

Somehow I got it working.. started over again on my linux box with no hitches. Only one more question:
I would like it so all permissions are denied by default (i assume that is done on first 3 lines of config file set to false.)
I then give the default user 'epiczones.world.entry' so they can move. However, any zones I create from then on everybody automatically has access to. Is this because any zone inside the world inherits the worlds permissions, like a child zone or something?

 

This is an incredibly niche need, but is it possible to set up a zone so that it runs a command when entered?

I need the ability to set a player's group when they step through/into a specific area.

 

Too many comments to read XD. Sorry if it was asked before. But can you make a zone with more than one flag?

 

Yes

 

By the way, thank you for adding the specific error printing functionality. I just updated my server to 1.3 (I was waiting for all the tools I was using to update and for notch to fix a terrible freezing bug on my mac...which hasn't happened yet but I found a workaround) anyway!

The latest version told me what was wrong with my zones file (the one I posted several pages ago now), so thank you thank you thank you!

 

Whenever I try to use /zone create name it acts like I just type /zone and shows me help instead of telling me to click points with the stick.

I have CB 440

 

Fix your permissions.

 

My permissions are set to '*' for all commands, and everything works except this.

 

This plugin is awesome.

One little nitpick: Am I right in concluding that there is no way to have a parent zone with an enter and exit text, and child zones within that parent zone with their own enter and exit texts as well?

For example, I set up a small zone, and give it an enter and exit text, and it works fine, and denies entry, and does what it's supposed to.

Then, when I make a bigger zone around it and set the first small zone as a child of this bigger zone, the smaller zone stops functioning entirely - no more enter or exit text, and it no longer denies entry.

Am I missing something obvious, here?

If you wouldn't mind submitting this as an issue ticket with your epic zones config and zones.txt as well, that would be great.

Hey could i give my users a "Permissions" command to allow them to create there own zones? and what is that command?

 

So I have a no PvP area A. Within area A I want to make area B with PvP on. I created area B, set A as parent of B, and edited area's B flag for pvp true.

Did I do this right? Its still not working for me. I do have WorldGuard in the same area, and I was wondering if thats the problem. Although, I did the samething with world guard.

 

So far this looks like the best spawn-protect plugin I've found.

One thing, is it possible to turn monsters on in a zone when the world is generally set to no mobs? Is it possible to make this possible? Because that would be FANTASTIC.

 

No, you can't do that with this plugin. But you can use it to simulate the regen of no mob mode.

Just add a zone that coveres your whole map and give it a regen that is similar to that of peaceful mode.

Did you enable PVP in your server.properties

 

Yes I did, I found out what the problem was. It was because of Towny. Residents of the same town could not have PvP. Thank you

 

Is there anyway to know, in--game, what zone you're in and what are its permissions/properties?
Something like hitting a block with a stick?

Also, How it works for creating regions from sky to bedrock? What if I place my points at different height level?

Is it normal that WG to EpicZone converter doesnt transfer pvp flags?

I want to transfer from WG to epic zone, but my world really depend on area protection, and I want to make sure transfer goes smoothly.

 

1. no there isnt any why i think, only with /who u get the player standing in your zone.
2. it automatic creates it like that, when u want not so deep/high zones u could change it in the zones file (ceiling,floor)

 

As @Jandalf has already covered, the zones are by default from 0 to 128, you can change that when editing a zone with the floor and ceiling commands.

As for finding out the zone you are in and info on that zone, you can /who to see what zone you are in. and then /zone info <tag> to see all the info on that zone.

/zone list will also list out all the zones you have, to see at a glance.

The WG to EZ converter is more to get your file ready at a basic state, you will need to review it and make additional changes as you see fit after the conversion process.

 

Hey could i give my users a "Permissions" command to allow them to create there own zones? and what is that command?

 

No, EpicZones does not currenly support zone ownership delegation.

if you want users to be able to create zones, then you must give them full access to the admin controls of EpicZones.

 

Hi Dev!

I like a lot your plugin, it's totally amazing!
But I've 2 requests about your plug-in. Can you implement a flag that delete a mobs when it enters in a zone? Like the plugin "Towny" do.
Moreover, Towny have a very cool feature, the map that shows zone. (http://towny.xshade.ca/tutorial). Do you think that you can add it to EpicZone?

Kindest regards, Scopit

 

Really appreciate the quick support i had on the last matter, which will be fixed in next update

however i got another question related to permissions, as of now i put epiczones.world.build.deny in my default group(which shouldn't be able to do anything), so they cant destroy anything in the world, and i add epiczones.world.build to my build group which should be able to destroy anything outside my spawn area, but this do not happen, its as if it denies all group up to admins completely.

any help is greatly appreciated

 

Does your build group inherit from default? If so, they have both allow and deny permissions, which means they get denied.

 

yep, any solution around this?
