Alter Crafting [Retired]

Summary:
This plug-in adds a whole new crafting system into Minecraft with a structure called an Alter. It does not replace the crafting table, but it adds a few new items.

Compatibility:
This plugin should work with Spigot 1.8 and 1.9.

Important Details:
There are no commands or permissions for this plugin, as it simply adds new items and crafting recipes. There is only the ability to enable and disable crafting recipes in the config file.

Mechanics:
I will attempt to explain all the mechanics as much as possible here, but I highly recommend that you watch my video that explains everything here:
(This video is slightly outdated)



-Alter Setup
In order to make an alter you will need 4 redstone blocks, 1 diamond block, and 1 emerald block. you place down the 4 redstone blocks in a box shape with a spaces in between, like this (let R = redstone block and O = nothing):
ROR
OOO
ROR

Next you need to place a diamond block in the center, like this (let D = diamond block):
ROR
ODO
ROR

And lastly you will place a emerald block on top of the diamond block.
Once that is done, the alter is activated by right clicking the emerald block.

-Crafting
In order to craft Items you must place the needed ingredients in the alter, once you place the correct ingredients in the alter, simply close your inventory and you will receive your item. If you are in survival mode, your character will lose half of its heath when an item is crafted, but it will regenerate. If you use a bucket, an empty bucket will be returned to you. Items recipes can be placed in the alter in any order as long as they have the right amount of each type of ingredient. If you make a mistake the alter will spit your items back out to you.

-Item Mechanics
-Stone of Passing
Allows the player to pass through a wall when said wall is right clicked, the wall can only be 1 block thick and there has to be air on the other side.
-Stone of Drifting
When this item is held in the players hand, the players fall speed is slowed and their fall damage is negated.
-Stone of Snow
Simply throws a snowball when a player right clicks the item.
-Stone of Fire
Throws a fireball when the player right clicks the item. The fireball will not destroy stone but will destroy dirt. It basically works the same as a ghast fireball
-Weak Stone of Life
This items only use is a crafting ingredient
-Wand of Thunder
Summons lightning 5 blocks in front of the player when right clicked
-Stone of Memory
Serves as a teleportation device. If the player right clicks the the TOP of a block with the stone, it will remember the location that the player clicked it. Clicking anywhere else other than the TOP of a block will teleport the player back to when they clicked the top of the block.
-Bread of Satisfaction
This is a super food, it will feed the player all the way to max hunger in addition to healing them to max health. This item is consumed once per use.
-Stone Stone of Life (Cow)
Serves as a spawn egg, right clicking the air will spawn 1 cow, right clicking the ground will spawn 2 cows, note that this item is consumed once per use (right clicking the ground consumes it twice).
-Stone Stone of Life (Pig)
Serves as a spawn egg, right clicking the air will spawn 1 pig, right clicking the ground will spawn 2 pigs, note that this item is consumed once per use (right clicking the ground consumes it twice).
-Stone Stone of Life (Chicken)
Serves as a spawn egg, right clicking the air will spawn 1 chicken, right clicking the ground will spawn 2 chickens, note that this item is consumed once per use (right clicking the ground consumes it twice).
-Stone Stone of Life (Sheep)
Serves as a spawn egg, right clicking the air will spawn 1 sheep, right clicking the ground will spawn 2 sheep, note that this item is consumed once per use (right clicking the ground consumes it twice).
-Wand of Life
This item acts as an unlimited bone meal source, it will grow saplings and crops when one is right clicked with this item. Note that this item is in beta and might produce some very minor bugs, but it will not break the game.
-Compass of Riding
This item will allow the player to ride any entity that they right click with the compass in their hand. Note that this item is also in beta, but only because the are more features to come with this item.

Command(s):
As of version 1.9.5 there has been 1 command added to the plugin.
/alteritems
This command is only available in creative mode. It opens of a creative inventory that contains all of the alter items. Simply click on one of the items to add it to your inventory.

Config File:
As of version 1.7.2, a config file has been added to the plugin. This config file allows you to disable or enable the crafting recipes of items on the alter. I will provide and example of how to enable and disable an item. Lets say I wanted to disable the Stone of Passing crafting recipe. In order to do this I would go to the config file and look for a line that says this:

Stone of Passing: true

I would change the line to:

Stone of Passing: false

and then I would save the config. This will disable alter crafting of the stone of passing. If I wanted to enable crating again, I would simply go back to the config and change the line:

Stone of Passing: false

to

Stone of Passing: true

and save the config. This will re-enable the crafting of the item.
Note that all this does is disable the crafting of the item. If I already crafted an item in game and then it crating recipe gets disabled, I will still be able to use the item, just not craft a new one.

To Do:
-Add more features!
-Add the ability to update the config with a command
-Upgrade beta items
-Probably add some permissions
