BlueMarker User Guide
BlueMarker is a Minecraft plugin that integrates with the BlueMap API. It allows you to place and remove points of interest markers on the map.
Installation
- Ensure that your server has the BlueMap plugin installed. BlueMarker depends on it to function correctly.
- Place the BlueMarker plugin (.jar file) into your server's plugins folder.
- Start or restart your server. The plugin will create a default configuration file (config.yml) inside the BlueMarker folder in the plugins directory.
Configuration
All configuration for the plugin is done via the config.yml file located in the BlueMarker folder in the plugins directory. Here you can set the following options:
- marker_tag: Determines the tag used to indicate a sign as a marker.
- use_marker_tag: If true, only signs using the marker_tag will become markers. If false, all signs will become markers.
- show_tag_on_sign: If true, the marker_tag will display on the sign.
- show_tag_on_map: If true, the marker_tag will display on the map.
- text_color: Set the color of the text on the signs.
- markers_folder: Defines where the marker files will be stored.
- marker_set_id: Unique ID for the marker set.
- marker_set_label: Display name for the marker set on the map.
- marker_set_player: If true, each player's markers will have their own marker set.
- messages: Customize various plugin messages.
To reload the configuration file while the server is running, use the command /bluemarker reload.
Usage
Markers are created by placing a sign and writing on it. If use_marker_tag is set to true, the first line of the sign should be the marker_tag (default is "[BlueMarker]").
Players with the bluemarker.create permission can create markers, and players with the bluemarker.destroy permission can destroy them. By default, all players can create and destroy markers.
To destroy a marker, simply break the sign in the game world.
Commands
- /bluemarker reload: Reloads the plugin configuration. Useful for applying changes made to the config.yml file without restarting the server.
Permissions
- bluemarker.bluemarker: Grants all plugin permissions. Default for server operators.
- bluemarker.create: Allows players to create markers. Default for all players.
- bluemarker.destroy: Allows players to destroy markers. Default for all players.
