DataDisks

Always wanted to use a normal music disk as a data-holding disk?

Well, it looks like you've found the plugin to do that! DataDisks allows you to create renamed music disks and add data to them, that you can request when you right click it!

Features

With this plugin you can create renamed disks that can hold data (at the moment they only can hold text). When you create a new "datadisk", you'il have to have a black music disk in your hand. Than, you can set the name of it and the text you want it to hold! Black music disks are craftable with a configurable recipe. In the config.yml you can choose if you want a to use a "reader-block", a block (of a configurable type) that you need to click if you want to get the information on the disk, or not so you can read the disk by right-clicking it.

Download

At the moment, there is no download link available. When the first file is approved, it will be on this bukkitdev page.

Commands

To create a datadisk, simply hold a disk in your hand and use the command: /disk <name> <data> After you've created a disk, you can use: /disk name <name> and /disk <data> to change the name or data on the disk.

Crafting recipes

This plugin uses only one crafting recipe: the one for the black disk. This is fully configurable in the config.yml! The default crafting recipe for a black disk is:

Configuration

You can find the default config.yml here

Explanation: At the moment, there are three configurable things:

• the crafting recipe for a black music disk
• the usage of a "reader-block"
• (only if you use a reader-block) the data value of the reader block

Future

At the moment, this plugin is very simple. I'm working on permissions, ranks and a function to protect a disk and make it rewritable or only writable! Also, in the future disks will even be able to hold items!
