Roadmap

xZise edited this page May 4, 2011 · 2 revisions

The xWarp plugin will get more features so this is the roadmap.

Milestones

Here are my next milestones.

iConomy 5 and BOSEconomy (and EssentialsEconomy (?)) support

Because of an API break in iConomy 5 I had to rewrite the API handler. Because of this xWarp is now abstracting the economy systems. So xWarp itself couldn't differ between the economy systems (only the api handler). Because of this I will add support for BOSEconomy and iConomy 5. I have to test the actual code, and if possible enable the Essentials Economy support.

Protection Areas and Groups as editors

In this milestone xWarp will introduce “Warp Protection Areas”. In these areas it is impossible to create new warps if you don't have the permissions to do this.

So you could make “vaults” if you make a cube of bedrock for example, create a private warp for the new owner and create a protection area for the vault. So the owner could invite others but they can't create warps in there. So if the owner want to lock this vault it can uninvite the specific users.

Also it is possible to prevent others from creating warps nearby warps with prices.

In this milestone xWarp will also get the ability to define a group as editor.

Because both will require a database change xWarp will release them both to hold the number of database updates at a minimum.

Uncategorized features

All this features are an idea and maybe going to be implemented. But they aren't grouped in a “Milestone” and will be released, if possible.

Native persistence support

Because (Craft)Bukkit is supporting persistence I'm trying to support these persistence system.

Smarter data reader (unknown)

At the moment the data readers are pretty bad. For example the sqlite reader updates the database although it only should read. I also want to support export of specific version, so you could easily change the warp plugin (although hopefully nobody need this).

Backups? (unknown)

If possible I maybe make it possible to backup the warps with others backup plugins. It is only an idea at a moment, but maybe sometimes xWarp supports this.

The problem at the moment is, that there is no backup plugin which also allow to backup plugin data.

Prevent warp into death (unknown)

xWarp prevents you to warp into a place where you suffocate. Maybe also where you will drop high enough so you would die. At the moment I have no idea how to accomplish this, but I will try to implement this feature.

tkelly's suggestion system (Suspended)

She created a system, that can get a warp similar named if you didn't spell it right.

Intermultiverse support (Fixed?)

In the past I got the “Player wrongly moved” warning sometimes and the player's position was reset to the spawn of the warp. But with 617 and 670 it seems, that this issue was fixed, but the abstinence of a but is no evidence that is fixed. I only don't get the message anymore.
