    WebAuctionPlus - Bukkit

    it supports item names like market do with modded items
    It adds a web interface to buy stuff from with account created ingame with plugin

    Not sure / can't remember if it possible have blacklist or set minimum price on some items
    Allows custom description for items being sold


    Worth taking a look on?

    This would be a struggle to do as people might get confused which server this is for due to it being a Website based market. From my understanding we either fix the market one or don't have a market at all on ferret.

    Its both. its a ingame and website based market
    Website part is only optional if i remember right
    and website is easy to sort out using subdomains

    Still im sure some players would get confused. And we would have to change it for every server not just ferret with the broken one. But I can also see the upside. Im going to add a Poll, (This is as a player, Im not saying the Poll with mean we get this or not.)[DOUBLEPOST=1443351844][/DOUBLEPOST]Well Im going to vote Yes, As i support the idea. But its depending on how much work it shall be to convert it if the Higher ups support this idea.

    It doesnt store nbt values which means a lot of the modded items would lose parts, like tinkers tools would all turn basic and bags would lose contents.

    Guess it could be requested or customized to make it store nbt?

    closing as this is not going to happen. Take a look at the activity of the plugin. And imagine that the author would need to not only support nbt data, he would also need to create custom images for all the items. (writing some sort of renderning)
    I do not see an advantage of web auction above global market, only disadvantages like that it adds another layer of complexity (outside the game, account required) to the game.

    if you like try it out. I'm very certain that it will display placeholders images for the mod items, does break nbt data, does not nicely support multi server and that the names are being displayed as x2045.
    On top of this it doesn't use material names, which makes the use between multiple servers impossible, as the same item has a different id on the next server. Only the material name matches.

    Me and David where Discussing making it so there's like a menu where you select the server which you want to access the market for, The idea was to never just have 1 market.

    I have used it in the past and it shows what ever name you want it for instead of item id
    Pictures i can't remember i think they added a way to export the item pics
    Most mods have been added as default btw

    This is the way the web interface gets item names defined


    Code:
    $Items[250]=array(
      0 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Machine Block',
    	'icon'=>'Machine_Block.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      1 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Iron Furnace',
    	'icon'=>'Iron_Furnace.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      2 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Electric Furnace',
    	'icon'=>'Electric_Furnace.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      3 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Macerator',
    	'icon'=>'Macerator.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      4 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Extractor',
    	'icon'=>'Extractor.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      5 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Compressor',
    	'icon'=>'Compressor.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      6 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Canning Machine',
    	'icon'=>'Canning_Machine.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      7 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Miner',
    	'icon'=>'Miner.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      8 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Pump',
    	'icon'=>'Pump.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      9 =>array(
    	'name'=>'Magnetizer',
    	'icon'=>'Magnetizer.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      10=>array(
    	'name'=>'Electrolyzer',
    	'icon'=>'Electrolyzer.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      11=>array(
    	'name'=>'Recycler',
    	'icon'=>'Recycler.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      12=>array(
    	'name'=>'Advanced Machine Block',
    	'icon'=>'Advanced_Machine_Block.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      13=>array(
    	'name'=>'Induction Furnace',
    	'icon'=>'Induction_Furnace.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      14=>array(
    	'name'=>'Mass Fabricator',
    	'icon'=>'Mass_Fabricator.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      15=>array(
    	'name'=>'Terraformer',
    	'icon'=>'Terraformer.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
      -1=>array(
    	'name'=>'Unknown Item',
    	'icon'=>'Machine_Block.png',
    	'pack'=>$pack),
    );
