These are amazing ideas, the problem we have is that I can’t think of a technical method to do this, or a plugin that we could use to do it.

The only option we would have is to disable teleporting all together to stop people cheating this, the only way I can think of doing it would be to have another map with all teleport disabled for everyone, I would much prefer to have everything on one world though.

One way we could do this would be to set a temporary rank, that disables all permissions for teleporting.

so for example, if we used this as a “Jobs” plugin, where you need to get form point A to point B in a certain time, forget the goods for now.

The problem would then be people complaining about other people attacking them on a “job” – “Its not fair if we have Tp disabled and they have it boo-hoo blah blah” I can see it already.

The other issue about temporary ranks, is it would conflict with auto-ranking and donator ranks, Nearly every single plugin I have used can not remember the current rank of a player before you set a temporary rank, so if you were set to “merchant” when the jobs over, it wouldnt know what to set you back as.

A way around this, would be to set permissions per person, instead of ranks, so It would have to remove all teleport commands during that “job” time.

An issue that may occur with this, is if the plugin is buggy, some people may get these permissions stuck, if a reboot happens during a “job” then it will forget a “job” is happening and that player will be stuck with those perms removed, like what happens if your in the arena during a reboot.

So, we would need a jobs plugin, that can register items being brought from Point A to Point B, that is timed, it can block commands during this job, and manage eco.

A way to make then unobtainable by players is to give them something such as a colored name or one of those fancy description things so players can’t make them on there own.

Err, make a different topic about it in Server Support, don’t post about it here.

I know @GodsDead uses this, but I recommend plugins.bukkit.org for plugins.

I may have found a method to make something like this work, it would be an arena, But an arena with no walls, if I can implement location based events we may be able to cobble something together.
