What can I do with DefensiveTurrets?
This plugin allows the users of your server to place different kinds of Turrets to maintain their homes/territories secured. Currently there are 4 types of Turrets (Burst, Laser, Siege and Healing). These turrets will constantly attack (and heal) monsters/players/animals and keep them away from your lands.

You can change a lot of Turret properties like the damage, range, cooldown, speed or sounds. And remember, every Turret can have as many upgrades as you want! (Tutorial of the config below)

1) Download DefensiveTurrets and Vault from this link: https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/vault
If you want holograms to show up, you need HolographicDisplays: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/holoinfo-holographic-information-1-8-1-13.65689/
2) Use /dt give <turret> <player> to give players a Turret. You can use the command from the console. Remember to use a valid turret name. (Burst, Laser, Siege or Healing)
3.1) Place the Turret Block on the ground and right click it. An inventory will be opened which is used to check the current turret properties and to upgrade its level (to have better stats)
3.2) You can open the Turret options menu where you can change some turret properties. Here you can disable targets, like players, monsters or animals. Also, you have a button for enabling or disabling the turret.
[IMG]

3.3) Players can add other players to a whitelist which the turret should not attack. You can remove them when you want in the same inventory.
3.4) If the ammunition option is enabled in the config, you need to add ammo to your turret in order to start shooting. Remember to disable your turret whenever you want to add ammo. [IMG]

3.5) If you are OP or have the defensiveturrets.admin/defensiveturrets.infiniteammo permission an extra item will appear on the inventory to define if the turret should have Infinite Ammo or not.

4) Change the turrets properties as you want in their respective configs (In the turrets folder you can find the turrets files) with the following tutorial:

Each of the turret files have the same format, but the most important one is the "Turret" section in which you rename the turret, change their sounds and finally, create upgrades for it. As each tower is different, they have different properties.

If you want to define the block of the turret as a head use:
id: "PLAYER_HEAD" (or "SKULL_ITEM:3" for 1.8-1.12)
head: "id;texture"
Here you can find heads: https://minecraft-heads.com/

For the sound property be careful because sound names are different in each Minecraft version:
Sounds 1.8: http://docs.codelanx.com/Bukkit/1.8/org/bukkit/Sound.html
Sounds 1.14: https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/Sound.html

5) If you change something in the config remember to use /dt reload to save the changes. If you see nothing happens, then it's better to stop your server and start it again.

Currently the plugin has a small API.

For this to work you need to add my plugin to your plugin external jars dependencies and to set softdepends: DefensiveTurrets on your plugin.yml file

Code (Java):

//Event called when player places a Turret Block
@EventHandler
public void placeTurret (TurretPlaceEvent event ) {
Player player = event. getPlayer ( ) ;
String turretName = event. getTurretName ( ) ;
Location turretLocation = event. getLocation ( ) ;
}

Code (Java):

//Event called when a Turret kills an entity
@EventHandler
public void turretKill (TurretKillEvent event ) {
String owner = event. getOwnerName ( ) ;
String turretName = event. getTurretName ( ) ;
Entity killedEntity = event. getEntity ( ) ;
}
