Plot flags

Introduction

The extensive flagging system allows you to do all sorts of things such as setting the plot weather.

Setting a flag is easy, just use /plot flag set <flag> <value>. For a boolean flag, the value would either be 'true' or 'false'.

Flag List

To bring up a list of flags use /plot flag list. These values are clickable, and clicking a flag name will show you information about that particular flag. You can also use /plot flag info <flag> directly, if you already know the flag name.

Flag system

Default Plot and Road Flags

You can set default flags per world in the plugins/PlotSquared/config/worlds.yml. Default flags will be present in each claimed plot unless a different value is manually set for that plot.

The following is an example of setting the use flag to allow interaction with doors, and trapdoors, levers, gates, pressure plates, buttons and trip wires:

worlds:
  <world>:
    [...]
    flags:
      use: "oak_door,iron_trapdoor,lever,acacia_fence_gate,light_weighted_pressure_plate,oak_button,tripwire"
      pvp: true

<world> indicates the name of that plotworld.

You can use Vanilla block tags too.

The same works for road flags.

Example:

worlds:
  <world>:
    [...]
    road:
      [...]
      flags:
        use: "oak_door,iron_trapdoor,lever,acacia_fence_gate,light_weighted_pressure_plate,oak_button,tripwire"
        pvp: true

<world> indicates the name of that plotworld.

Flag types

BlockTypeList

A list of blocks, supporting both legacy numerical IDs and new string IDs e.g.

• grass_block for grass blocks

• 7 for bedrock

• 7,3 for bedrock and dirt

• 35:14,35:15 for red and black wool

These flags also support vanilla-tags, like:

• #signs for all sign types

• #buttons for all button types

Boolean

Accepts true or false.

Double

Accepts any decimal number (all real numbers).

Enum

Accepts a predefined collection of values.

Integer

Accepts all integers.

Internal

Flags used internally.

Miscellaneous

Accept commands with multiple parameters, e.g /gamemode creative.

String

Accept flags with multiple string parameters, e.g. /plot f set greeting Welcome to my plot!

TeleportDeny

Accepts the follow plot membership trusted, members, nonmembers, nontrusted and nonowners.

Timed

A binary tuple of numbers e.g. 53 6 or 7 93.

Flag Permissions

Basic Permission Schema

To give a player access to a flag, you need to assign the following permissions, and exchange the value if wanted:

• plots.set.flag

• plots.flag

• plots.flag.add

• plots.flag.remove

Also, you can assign plots.permpack.basicflags to cover the following permissions and lots of the basic flags.

Flag specific permission

plots.set.flag.<name>.* (e.g. plots.set.flag.fly.*) The asterisk covers the values of the flag, if it's a boolean flag you cover true and false, if it's a Long flag you cover all positive numbers and so on. Make sure to decide whether you need it or not.

Terminology

The following tables contain phrases covering certain stances of plot member inheritance and flag states. We will explain the phrases used below.

• Player: The player, as in user of the server.

• Guest: Person who is not added to the plot tiers.

• False: The flag intended behavior is not enabled by default.

• True: The flag intended behavior is enabled by default.

• None: The flag intended behavior is not set by default.

• Infinity: The flag is not bound to an amount and allows infinite types of the flag.

• Null: The flag intended behavior cannot be set outside of the API.

• Empty: The flag variable is empty and won't appear to the user.

• Not Buyable: The flag variable is not set, therefore the plot is not buyable.

• Disabled: The flag variable is not set, therefore the intended behavior is not defined.

Entity Categories

Flags such as mob caps, interaction flags, etc, make use of entity categories. PlotSquared divides entities in the following categories:

• animal: cod donkey squid skeleton_horse mule trader_llama parrot zombie_horse cow horse bee polar_bear pufferfish cat bat salmon fox pig llama iron_golem turtle tropical_fish sheep snow_golem mooshroom ocelot dolphin chicken wolf panda rabbit

• hostile: blaze pillager skeleton giant elder_guardian zombie_pigman end_crystal ravager ghast guardian vindicator magma_cube spider creeper wither evoker slime illusioner phantom witch wither_skeleton husk ender_dragon cave_spider stray enderman silverfish endermite vex zombie drowned zombie_villager, shulker
