This plugin is a free software (GPL v3). But the spirit of free software is not free, and even more precious than premiums.

I'm sorry but this plugin DOESN'T work in Minecraft under version 1.8. I did try my best, though.

Once upon a time, there's an incredible map.
When I picked it up, it didn't show me the terrian, but just asked me paint on it!
So I have done some artwork and enjoyed being a pixel artist. Nothing could be happier.

The incredible map was not satisfied with being incredible. It wanna be ultimate!
So it evolved itself. Haphazardly it showed me its new feature, games!
I immersed in playing pixel game and became a pixel gamer!

I actually don't know what will this map would go into. But you will know when you have this map!
You will have a copy of this map, just by clicking the download on the top-right corner.
Try it out, and rate me if you love this map

Though tutorials of this plugin are quite simple, they take some spaces. So I place tutorials in the wiki pages instead.
Tutorials are actually embedded as hyperlinks in the maps-with-text under the Map-Painting banner. If you didn't notice, you could click these links instead:

The player should have "mpp.command" permission before he issues any command.

/mpp: list all sub-commands of map painting. (mpp=MaP Painting)
/mpp create <type> <name> [<parameters>]: create a canvas with specific type and name.
- /mpp create normal <name> [<1~128>]: create a square-shaped canvas covering the map fully.
  - 1~128: the resolution, 128 by default.
- /mpp create wrap <name> [<init>]: create a canvas wrapper.
  - init: the canvas to be initially wrapped.
- /mpp create script <name> <script> [<lang>]: create a script-based canvas.
  - script: the file name under the plugin folder.
  - lang: the script language, ECMAScript by default.
- /mpp create clone <name> <cloned>: clone a existed canvas.
  - cloned: the canvas to be cloned.
/mpp chown <receiver> [<name>]: transfer the ownership of a specified canvas. You should be the manager or the owner of the canvas if you want to transfer ownership. (chown=Change Owner)
/mpp chmod <+/-painter>... [<name>]: add(+) or remove(-) painter(s) of a specified canvas. You should be the manager or the owner of the canvas if you want to manage the painter team.
/mpp destroy [<name>]: destroy a specified canvas.

/mpp undo [<name>]: Undo a unexpected action when you regret.
/mpp redo [<name>]: Do a recently undone action again.
/mpp confirm: confirm the execution of a hazardous command (commands in red).

Note:
The commands in red are hazardous commands.
The commands in italic font are those who can be issued without specifying the canvas name (the <name>) but just hold the canvas in their hand.

The permissions are in " permission name: what they could do if they have this permission" format.
There're two genres of permissions. The explicit permissions are those could be configured in permission.yml or permission plugins. The implicit permissions are embedded in configuration files, and could not be configured externally.

mpp.undo: revert operations on his canvas.
mpp.redo: redo undone operations on his canvas.
