This is an entirely remade and improved version of the old plugin BetterCreeperEggs. Just like BCE, this plugin improves gameplay on factions servers by adding new strategies to grief others' bases. However it also adds over 10 new creeper types as well as new functionalities like compatibility with other plugins and with latest versions.
20+ New Creeper Eggs
PremiumCreeperEggs features 21 brand new creeper eggs that all have a very specific ability which triggers whenever they spawn or when they explode.
- Auto Ignite Creeper (the creeper will self detonate after 5s)
- Charged Creeper (the creeper spawns charged)
- Draining Creeper (drains water within a small radius)
- Magma Creeper (drains nearby lava blocks)
- Nuke Creeper (creates a bigger explosion)
- Frag Creeper (spawns multiple self-detonating creepers)
- Flashbang Creeper (stuns & blinds nearby entities)
- Smoke Creeper (displays a heavy cloud of smoke particles for a short period of time)
- Machine Gun Creeper (summons primed TNT blocks when exploding)
- Quarry Creeper (digs straight through the ground in a 3x3 tunnel)
- Fiery Creeper (ignites surroundings)
- Frozen Creeper (freezes surroundings when it explodes)
- Lightning Creeper (struck by lightning when it explodes)
- Lucky Creeper (can drop spawners)
- Midas Creeper (turns surroundings into gold!)
- Poisoned Creeper (poisons nearby entities)
- Sandstacker Creeper (creates a pile of sand blocks up to building limit)
- Shockwave Creeper (knocks back nearby entities)
- Wither Creeper (temporarily spawns a wither boss)
- Darkness & Daylight Creeper (sets current time to night/day-time when it explodes)
User Friendly
Every command features a full tab completion system to easily perform commands. The plugin also features an update checker, which sends a message to the console on server start and to admins with a specific permission (can be disabled) whenever they join. Admins can access a GUI with /pce list to access the creeper eggs easily.
Extra Creeper Egg Options
You can configurate cooldowns for every custom creeper type this way players do not spam creepers if they are over-powered on your server. Creeper eggs and creeper names are also fully translatable in the eggs.yml file. Player also need permissions in order to use creeper eggs.
Lastly, creeper eggs all have editable crafting recipes that can be easily toggled off in the eggs.yml config file.
Fully configurable
Messages are entirely translatable in the main config file. You can also choose block materials that cannot be broken by special creepers that replace blocks like the Frozen Creeper or the Midas Creeper.
PCE also features custom creeper egg drop tables. You can configure both the chance for a vanilla creeper to drop one of the custom eggs and the chance of a custom creeper to drop back its egg when killed. This allows players to get the egg back if the creeper has not exploded while preventing them from abusing this option since they will not get the egg back 100% of the time.
Compatibility
PremiumCreepers works better with WorldGuard since it adds a flag to disable eggs in specific regions. Spawners dropped by the Lucky Creeper also work with SilkSpawners if it is installed. PCE also adds a new PlaceholderAPI placeholder that allow you to get the remaining time a player needs to wait before using an egg. This could be a great addition to, for instance, a side-bar information scoreboard:
- %premiumcreepereggs_cooldown_fiery%
- %premiumcreepereggs_cooldown_machine_gun%
- %premiumcreepereggs_cooldown_lightning%
- etc.
Commands
- /pce shows the help page.
- /pce give <creeper-egg> (player) (amount) gives an egg to a player.
- /pce reload reloads the plugin config files.
- /pce list opens the admin GUI to easily access eggs.
- /pce version shows the plugin version (/version).
Permissions
- premiumcreepereggs.admin gives access to /pce.
- premiumcreepereggs.use.* allows to use any creeper egg.
- premiumcreepereggs.use.machine-gun
- premiumcreepereggs.use.lightning
- premiumcreepereggs.use.daylight
- etc.
