SpigotVIP ▶ PlayerSkills2 ◀ | Give players a way to upgrade their character 1.6

This plugin was built and programmed against the 1.8 API. This plugin was tested on a Spigot server running 1.14.4.

If this plugin is native to a version pre-1.13, it will not natively support 1.13+ blocks and items.
Code (Text):
VERSION COMPATIBLE
1.14.x Yes (T)
1.13.x Yes (*)
1.12.x Yes (*)
1.11.x Yes (*)
1.10.x Yes (*)
1.9.x Yes (*)
1.8.x Yes (A)
1.7.x No

KEY:
* = the plugin is VERY LIKELY to work, but not confirmed
# = the plugin has reduced features
A = native version
T = tested
Please note: if your version is not listed and the latest version listed is compatible, the plugin is likely to work, but not confirmed.

Why premium? PlayerSkills2 is premium to help motivate myself with maintaining the plugin, during a time where I am very busy (exams). While I love my original plugin, PlayerSkills, it has fallen far beyond repair and upon relfection the coding practices I used back then was awful. PlayerSkills2 is a fresh new start for PlayerSkills and I will provide a lot support and future updates for this plugin.

Right off the bat, there are several performance improvements to PlayerSkills and three new skills. I expect to add more skills in the future. The redesign of the code allows me to be flexible with the amount of skills I can add to the plugin and if you can code, you could even add your own custom skills.

If you do not wish to pay for this premium version of the plugin, you are more then welcome to download the old PlayerSkills. However, please be noted that I no longer offer support for that plugin.


PlayerSkills2 will allow players to purchase skill points using XP to invest in skills. The skills are presented in a simple intuitive menu.

PlayerSkills2 has eight skills your players can choose from:

• Strength
• Resistance
• Dodging
• Criticals
• Archery
• Gluttony
• Health
• Laceration

(image up-to-date as of 1.0)
Strength:
Strength is how much damage each melee attack inflicts on opponents.

Resistance:
Resistance will dampen incoming damage from all sources.

Dodging:
Dodging gives a random chance of nullifying an entire attack.

Criticals:
Criticals are a random chance of inflicting a critical shot, which is150% (by default) of the original attack.

Archery:
Archery is how much damage each ranged attack inflicts on opponents.

Gluttony:
Gluttony allows a player to increase food intake from a single item. For example: a steak could increase a players food level by 8 instead of 4 with a gluttony level of 2 (by default).

Health:
Health gives players extra hearts.

Laceration:
Laceration is a random chance of causing an enemy to bleed. When an enemy is bleeding, they lose health over a set amount of time (by default, 1 heart every 2.5 seconds for 8 cycles).

This plugin was tested on both 1.8 and 1.13. It is unlikely that it will not work for versions in-between but I cannot provide any guarantee.
Should it not work for any versions in between I will do my best to fix this.

The purchasing of skill points can be done in two ways:

• statically; or
• dynamically

Statically: the price of skill points will not change. It will always be what it is defined in the config.
Dynamically: the price of skill points will change depending on how many were previously bought. This can be customised.

• /skills [/skill, /s] - opens the skills gui
  
• /skillsadmin [/skilladmin, /sa] - provides an admin with control over players skills

• playerskills.command
  
• playerskills.admin

To install, you should do the following:

• stop the server;
• move PlayerSkills2 to the plugins/ folder;
  
• start the server.

Do not reload if it is the first time the plugin is being installed.

PlayerSkills2 offers a very flexible configuration. The comments in the file should assist you with configuring the skills, but if you are still stuck then you're more than welcome to join my Discord server for help (scroll to the bottom for an invite).

Custom Skills
You can create your own custom skills if you can code. A simple explanation of this is:

• extend the class "Skill" - the constructor methods should be (plugin, string, string)
• you can obtain an instance of the PlayerSkills plugin using Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin("PlayerSkills2");
  
• add listeners, etc
• you can get a SPlayer using SPlayer.getPlayer(uuid);, this will provide information on the player
• register the skill using the main class
