[mod] Jail [0.0.1] [jail]

[RAPHAEL]

EDIT: Decided to experiment with github. This mod is now on github.

The idea hit me earlier tonight when building a small town on the DTAmedia server.. why isn't there a jail mod? With the help of kaeza (thank you again) this mod was born.

What does it do? It allows anyone with the "jail" priv to send players to jail and release them from jail. Every 30 seconds it sends prisoners back to jail (in case they escape). You can edit the init.lua file to change how often it sends the prisoners to jail and also the jail coordinates. This mod also adds unbreakable jail wall, jail glass, jail bars and a warden pick (for breaking said unbreakable blocks).

To send someone to jail, do:
/jail playername

To release someone from jail do:
/release playername

To grant someone the priv to send someone to jail and release them do:
/grant playername jail

To get jail wall, glass, bars or pick:
/giveme wardenpick
/giveme jail:jailwall
/giveme jail:glass
/giveme jail:ironbars

You MUST build a jail before you can send someone to jail! (this shouldn't have to be mentioned but mentioning it anyway).

No screenshots are offered since theres nothing really to screenshot.

Feel free to offer better textures and any ideas. Also report any issues.

yay this could be implemented on hungergame servers

Are you using set_attach to keep the person attached to the jail?

[kaeza]

Seems like you have added more features.
+1 My friend.

No for the time being it just re-teleports listed prisoners back to jail every 30 seconds.

Decided to experiment with github hosting. Mod now hosted on github. See first post for details.

I made a texture pack for this mod:
i build a jail just for fun, only to see how its look:

"im innocent!!!"

[rubenwardy]

This looks fun...

[shaunbrown1995]

Testing on my server now.

I'll let you know if i find bugs.

[ETC]

Do you mind if I incorporate the code into another mod? I'll link back to this mod.

[Luke123]

This is a good mod for severs +1

[rarkenin]

Yeah. A noclip client can get out easily. Maybe poll for the jailed user's position then reset as needed?

Or perhaps use the entity attach feature.

[Calinou]

+1, attach the jailed guy to an invisible entity.

[markveidemanis]

What about the /spawn command in some servers?

[Calinou]

What about the /spawn command in some servers?

Tell the "spawn" mod devs to check for a "no_spawn" privilege which prevents the use of /spawn and grant it to the jailed players. Same for /home.

[Traxie21]

Why not just save all privs to a file when someone is sent to jail, then revoke all privs, and restore them from that file when unjailed.

[Cooper97]

Please make a version of the Jail Mod which use set_attach instead of a teleport.
Please make it also so that it revokes the privileges interact, fly, teleport and noclip of a jailed player.

If someone could do that, then jails will actually be useful in minetest.

[Shire]

Maybe someone could make a Bubba/Bertha NPC, either for the fun of it, or make them hostile toward whoever's in the jail. That'd be hilarious.

[webdesigner97]

I was thinking of such a mod too I started it, but you were faster

But the idea is really great!

[BadWolf]

I installed it, and built a jail. But if I /jail someone they don't transer into the jail

[Cooper97]

You can edit the init.lua file to change how often it sends the prisoners to jail and also the jail coordinates.

You must change the jail coordinates in the init.lua file. Then it should work.

[Junkman]

It would be cool if a player who kills an other would become "pvp mod". It's name would become red, and when someone kills him in return the killer will go jailed for one hour or something like that.

[Element]

how do i change the jail coords.

[PenguinDad]

how do i change the jail coords.

You have to change in init.lua:

Code: Select all

local jailpos = { x = -517, y = 36, z = 169 }

to the coordinates where you built the jail.
