    PlotMe - Plot Generation and Protection
    Version: v0.6b

    Greetings dear server admin! I present you PlotMe, a multi-world plot plugin. Each plot world has it's own configurations. Each plot is protected and only the owner can build on it. The paths surrounding the plots are protected against grief. Example world dynmap

    Download

    Requirements

    The only requirement is CraftBukkit and a SuperPermissions plugin. If you will host multiple worlds or if you are adding a new world, it is suggested to install a world management plugin like MultiVerse.

    Optional Dynmap addon

    You can find DynmapPlotMe here. It will show on your dynmap who owns which plots and the helpers.

    Installation
    Video tutorial by Samkio and Torrent from WoopaGaming :


    Once you have place the PlotMe.jar in your plugins directory, Start your server with any map. This will create the configuration file located in your plugins/PlotMe folder.
    Open the file config.yml with a text editor and change the default settings (see configuration section below).

    Only map
    If this is the only map you will be using, go in your bukkit.yml and look for a section called "worlds:", if it is not present at it at the end of the file.
    In this section, add the name of your world and set the generator to PlotMe like this :
    Code:
    worlds:
      plotworld:
        generator: PlotMe
    
    Multiple maps
    If you are using MultiVerse, create the world like so :
    /mv create {NAME} normal -g PlotMe
    Metrics

    Since v0.3, PlotMe is now using Metrics by Hidendra. This sends unanonymous data to mcstats.org every half hour regarding the plugin version and number of plots. This is harmless but if you ever feel the need, it can be disabled in folder plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml Just change the opt-out to true.

    Configuration
    PlotMe comes with following default configurations :
    Code:
    worlds:
      plotworld:
        PlotAutoLimit: 100
        PathWidth: 7
        PlotSize: 32
        BottomBlockId: 7
        WallBlockId: 44
        PlotFloorBlockId: 2
        PlotFillingBlockId: 3
        RoadHeight: 64
        DaysToExpiration: 7
    usemySQL: false
    mySQLconn: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/minecraft
    mySQLuname: root
    mySQLpass: password
    
    • PlotAutoLimit - This is the max plot X that the command /plot auto will loop. 100 means 100x100 plots will be scanned. Increase when the command returns an error. "No plot found within 10000 plots. Contact an admin."
    • PathWidth - This is the width of the paths INCLUDING the plot walls
    • PlotSize - This is the size of one side of each plots and excludes the wall. The walls cannot be modified by plot owners
    • BottomBlockId - The is the block at the bottom of the world. By default bedrock
    • WallBlockId - This is the block around each plots. By default half-step. Other values could be 0 (air).
    • PlotFloorBlockId - This is the top layer of each plot
    • PlotFillingBlockId - This is the content between the top layer and the bottom layer in each plot.
    • RoadHeight - This is the height at which the road is.
    • DaysToExpiration - This is the number of days at which plots expire. Setting this to 0 makes the plots never expire. Expired plots are not deleted or cleared, they are simply added to the list of expired plots at "/plotme expired".
    • usemySQL - If this is false, PlotMe will use a SQLLite file located in the plugin subfolder next to this configuration file. If set to true, the plugin will use MySQL
    • mySQLconn - Connection string with MySQL
    • mySQLuname - Username for MySQL
    • mySQLpass - Password for MySQL
    Example with 3 maps :
    Show Spoiler

    Code:
    worlds:
      starterland:
        PlotAutoLimit: 100
        PathWidth: 7

        WallBlockId: 44
        PlotFloorBlockId: 2
        PlotFillingBlockId: 3
        RoadHeight: 64
        DaysToExpiration: 7
      advancedworld:
        PlotAutoLimit: 100
        PathWidth: 9
        PlotSize: 50
        BottomBlockId: 7
        WallBlockId: 44
        PlotFloorBlockId: 2
        PlotFillingBlockId: 3
        RoadHeight: 30

        PlotSize: 200
        BottomBlockId: 7
        WallBlockId: 44
        PlotFloorBlockId: 2
        PlotFillingBlockId: 3
        RoadHeight: 10
        DaysToExpiration: 0
    usemySQL: false
    mySQLconn: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/minecraft
    mySQLuname: root
    mySQLpass: password
     
    


    Usage

    Once your server is configure and everything is ready and after you've setup the permissions using the section below, the rest is very easy.
    All that needs to be done is for a user to come up to a plot and type /plotme claim or from anywhere inside the plot world use /plotme auto and a plot will be automatically assigned to the person. A claimed plot gets a sign in the corner that displays the plot id along with the owner. This sign will disappear if the plot is reset.

    The owner of the plot can now build whatever he wants.

    What if the owner wants to get rid of his plot? An admin or someone with the right permissions can use /plot clear and the plot will be recreated just like it was previously.

    Plots and paths will be protected, as long as the world name is in the configuration file, no need to create a worldguard region.

    Minor changes
    • Fixed powering rails and redstone above and under roads. The physic event is no longer being listened. If this causes any issues please report this in a ticket with the process to reproduce the problem.
    • Fixed errors thrown when you didn't properly set your configurations and you tried to generate a world with Multiverse. The world will now properly generate with default values and throw a warning.
    • Removed debugging message when plots expiration is updated


    Older versions
    Show Spoiler

    Version 0.6c
    • Fixed Lag (hopefully for good this time!) by removing unnecessary Expiration date updates.
    • Enabled "Interactions" in other people plots like Levers, pressure plates, doors. Bonemeal is the only disabled interaction. This fix is temporary and in the future, flags will be added per plots and/or per world.
    • Fixed plotme.limit.X permission for PEX users. Apparently the way it was handled isn't supported by PEX, so a loop has been added and will support a limit up to 255.
    • Fix to entity explosions, hopefully no more errors thrown now.
    • Renamed the config "WorldHeight" to "RoadHeight". Existing "WorldHeight" will automatically be renamed "RoadHeight". "WorldHeight" is now deprecated. (Deprecated means it will still work for the next few updates when people migrate, but we will remove it someday and if people have never used v0.6c+ they will have the "RoadHeight" property reset to default)
    • Fixes for Null errors
    • RoadHeight (WorldHeight) is now limited to 250. Anything above that will raise an error and set itself to 250.
    Version 0.6b
    • Fixed the /plotme remove command
    • Disabled TNT in all plotme worlds. This is to fix TNT exploit when triggering tons of TNT near claimed plots. There's nothing I can do to prevent it at the moment because when a TNT entity moves it does not throw an event so I cannot tell if it moved from one claimed plot to another.
    • Fix to expiration update, instead of saving to database each time a block is broken or placed, it will only save to database if the new expiration date is different than the previous one. This should improve performance.
    • Fixed help doing an error outside plot worlds.
    • Added lots of error handlings to various commands. This should remove the errors in logs.
    Version 0.6
    • Fixed the help to only show commands you are allowed to use
    • Added command "/plotme list" which displays plots that you are allowed to build on along with the expiration date and helpers. (plotme.user.list)
    • Added command "/plotme list [player]" which displays plots that you are allowed to build on along with the expiration date and helpers. (plotme.admin.list)
    • Added command "/plotme expired [page]" which displays expired plots (plotme.admin.expired)
    • Added command "/plotme addtime" which resets the expiration date depending on the DaysToExpiration configuration. (plotme.admin.addtime)
    • Plots which get modified by the plot owner or by one of the helpers get it's expiration date reset. (Listening to block place, break and interact)
    • Added new parameter in the config.yml for the DaysToExpiration. Default is 7. Set to 0 for never expire.
    • Fixed config.yml to input default values for new parameters when they were previously not present (Example: WorldHeight)
    • Changed the date format for Expiration date in the command "/plotme info" to YYYY-MM-DD
    Version 0.5
    • Added permission "plotme.limit.X". It determines the number of plots that can be claimed. Replace X with a number or with * for unlimited.
    • Added new parameter in the config.yml for the WorldHeight. Default is 64
    Version 0.4b
    • Enabled ~//up for plots allowed
    • Disabled SuperPickaxe single outside plots allowed
    • Disabled TNT and setting Fire in roads and plots in which you are not allowed. TNT cannons should only break blocks in the plot they originated from.
    • Fixed sign placement when road was set on different width than 7. Existing plots can be fixed by applying /plotme setowner with the current owner. You'll have to manually break the leftover sign.
    • Fixed /plot clear and /plot reset not correctly aligning when path width different than 7.
    • Fixed Helpers being unable to use WorldEdit.
    • Fixed Helpers added with different capitalization not being able to build.
    • Fixed using worldedit while standing outside the plot. Previously you had to walk into the plot. Now it will detect on click and set your worldedit zone there if you are allowed.
    Version 0.4
    • Added WorldEdit support. Even if the user has WorldEdit permission, he can only modify a plot he owns. Commands ~//gmask and ~//up are disabled in a plot world. People with permission "plotme.admin.weanywhere" can use command "/plotme weanywhere" to use WorldEdit anywhere.
    • The command /plotme clear and /plotme reset now also restore the wall surrounding the plot.
    Version 0.3b
    • Fixed command setowner and biome to correctly save them in the database. Prior to this fix, they would revert upon server restart.
    • Fixed WorldGenerator error when world was not contained in configuration file (does not contain any generators that may be used in the default world). When this is the case, Default configurations will be used to generate the world and a warning will be shown in server log.
    Version 0.3
    • Built help pages, usable with /plotme, /plotme 2, /plotme 3, etc. Thanks to t3hcontroller
    • Made worlds case-insensitive. Existing worlds shouldn't be affected, if they are please notice me.
    • Added clear, add and remove for owned plots. Permissions : plotme.use.clear, plotme.use.add and plotme.use.remove
    • Fix allowing plot owners to use buckets on the sides of the plots
    • Signs telling the plot owner no longer turn the corner block into double half-steps. Removing owner no longer turns corner into half-step.
    Version 0.2c
    • Fix permissions issues
    • Fix configuration overwritting itself with previous configuration when using the plotme reload command.
    Version 0.2b
    • Removed some forgotten debugging code throwing an error when no world is named "plotworld
    Version 0.2
    • First public release

    Awesome plugin! I have a idea I hope you like it (And implent it): When a new player joins and gets promoted he can use a command like "/plot start" to get a plot (of course it should be close to the others) and can immediatly build there, maybe it's also automatically set as his /home.

    There's already a "/plotme auto" command to automatically get an empty plot. And there's /plotme home. I will not replace /home

    You should really learn english.

    LOL

    Suggestion:

    Have some permission node on how many plots someone can have.
    Maybe so the different ranks on my server get a different amount of plots.

    whenever i or anybody else places a block it lags the server. any reason?
     
  12. Well, what plugins do you run? Plugins for statistics and for gtiefprotection (those that let you restore the world) records every placement of blocks which uses some of the servers resources. The same goes for dynmap.

    Here is a picture of my plugins, SWatchdog is a grief protection that keeps records.

    The lag only happens in the world where PlotMe in enabled. and its not the world itself, i have had more worlds on the server before, but deleted a few.

    no errors, but it does get overloaded every time:
    WARNING Can't keep up! Did the system time change, or is the server overloaded?

    ZachBora

    you mentionned placing blocks, what about breaking and interracting?
    Also how many players do you have?

    Edit: I did recently add plot expiration reset when people break or place blocks. I'll see if I can tweak it. If your database connection is slow this could create lag. I'll make it update database only if the value changed.

    Edit2: Also, if you aren't using MySQL I highly suggest you use that instead of base file.

    i dont exactly get Mysql, any place i can get a tutorial?

    breaking doesnt effect as much,

    never tried inteacting, i dont this its should lag, its just placing, in that specific world, no other world has the same problem.

    EDIT: i ave my server hosted, i can only access files via FTP, so i cant make it a mysql server

    Usually your server host provides a MySQL database. You should ask him about it.

    I've got a problem.
    Everything seems to be alright, except for one thing.
    There is one chunk who unloads every time in a matter of time and the breaking and placing blocks have a some kind of delay.
    This only appears in the "PlotMe" world.
    I use my own MySQL database.

    I am aware of the breaking and place delay. I should have a bug fix update out tomorrow or very late tonight that will hopefully make it faster.

    + A little suprise.

    Ce n'est pas une excuse. Ton texte aurait moins de fautes si tu utilisais simplement google translate pour changer de français à anglais. J'ai une très basse tolérence aux fautes d'orthographe.


    This is not an excuse. Your text would have fewer mistakes if you used google translate simply to change French to English. I have a very low tolerence for spelling errors.

    That's what I meant when I said "hopefully make it faster".

    senne97 Please provide more information about your configurations.
    - PlotMe/config.yml content
    - Name of your world
    - Are you using multiverse
    - Did you modify the bukkit.yml
    My first guess would be that you are using a different world generator, like CleanRoomGenerator.

    You shouldn't put a space in a world name. I hope you didn't. Please provide the information above.

    i did, they will probably set it up. thank you.
    also, can u notify me when the next update for this plugin is? With the tweaking :p

    i figured out it does happen when interacting and breaking blocks also. You probably already know this though.

    Yes, try v0.6b it's on the dev page


    v0.6b
    • Fixed the /plotme remove command
    • Disabled TNT in all plotme worlds. This is to fix TNT exploit when triggering tons of TNT near claimed plots. There's nothing I can do to prevent it at the moment because when a TNT entity moves it does not throw an event so I cannot tell if it moved from one claimed plot to another.
    • Fix to expiration update, instead of saving to database each time a block is broken or placed, it will only save to database if the new expiration date is different than the previous one. This should improve performance.
    • Fixed help doing an error outside plot worlds.
    • Added lots of error handlings to various commands. This should remove the errors in logs.
