One of a kind plugin, with a polite and responsive dev. The cosmetic passenger position via Protocol Lib works great as well, and can be viewed by all players!
This addon is clearly the best pet dragon addon for the minecraft game.
Really good plugin as well as support, the developer always responds fast and is very kind.
Thank you for your kind review! Multiple people should already be able to ride a dragon, try clicking a dragon with an empty hand that already has a passenger on it:) You do have to have appropriate permission set for that to be allowed though.
Version: 2.2.0
Fun plugin and great dev! Added more features to the plugin and now it's smoother than ever.
Thank you for the review! Also I told you before however, reviews are absolutely not the place for feature suggestions at all. This feature is already possible, I have responded to you in the proper place (discussion thread)
Version: 2.1.5
Suggestions:
You could make the dragon individual, so that another user cannot ride another's dragon.
You can make it so that at the time of eliminating the dragon, let it be eliminated even if it is far away.
First suggestion has already been a part of this plugin since its first release! If you are not an operator, you will actually not be able to ride/remove dragons spawned by other players, this can be configured more using the associated permissions (see plugin description :).
I don't really understand what you mean with the second suggestion? In what way do you eliminate the dragon?
Reviews are really not the place for feature suggestions, since you cannot respond etc and they provide limited interaction. So please elaborate on your second suggestion in the proper place (discussion thread).
Version: 2.1.4
The implementation of actually controlling the dragon is ok, but there's a massive vertical offset where the player sits. The dragon is unable to land either, it just floats there. Some invisible armor stands to create a cool looking mounting model on it's back would be neat and a way to freeze it's animation or slow the animation down when it's on the ground would make it seem cooler, like an actual pet. Also, it'd be really cool if the controls could be customized. I'd be more in favor of "C" to make the dragon fly lower, space to make it fly higher, and another key to make it execute it's attacks. I really don't feel it is worth 5 Euros at this point quite yet.
I am really sorry to read this review. What bothers me however is that this user absolutely did not try to even ask for my help in any way. He/she reviewed the plugin just 10 minutes(!) after purchasing, never having even contacted me with a feature suggestion/remark. How exactly do you think I can improve this plugin/implement suggestions if you never pose them in the first place? Also keep in mind that there is a free version with almost all features present, including all those mentioned here, so you could have known all this before purchasing.
What also bothers me most is that all but one of the suggestions here are completely impossible in any server, due to the way Minecraft works. So it feels unfair that this user expects them to be in this plugin. If you would have read the discussion thread, tried the free version or asked me, you could have known that there is nothing I can change about the passenger height. It is simply defined by the Minecraft client which I cannot change in any way, since my plugin sets the players as passengers.
I cannot make the dragon sit as there are simply no textures in the Minecraft client to represent "sitting", it will always look like it is flying, just like a regular EnderDragon.
Lastly I cannot use any random letter as user input, because again, that is not how Minecraft works. Only keys that represent some functionality actually trigger anything on the server and can be listened to, which is why I opted for the obvious ones (wasd control, space to shoot). This is also literally in the first paragraph of the plugin description.
None of the above is something I can change, they are all limitations relating to the nature of something known as "a server side modification" (plugin).
The animation speed is already on the todo list, and I hope to finish it in between heaps of university work. If you had tried to contact me, you would have seen this suggestion as it is posted by very kind customers in the discussion thread.
To anyone else reading this: Please see the reviews below posted by people who actually understand my plugin and have put effort into helping me improve it, in my eyes they represent this plugin best.
Version: 2.1.3
Great plugin, quality code, and a responsive and friendly developer! Highly recommend purchasing! Does exactly what it says flawlessly & MySQL support is a life saver! Thank you! :)
It's a rideable flying dragon that spits out fireballs. I don't think I need to say anything else.
Regarding the plugin author 3ricL, this user is very friendly and appreciates user suggestions to enhance the plugin's functionality (I am writing this part because that isn't always the case with SpigotMC developers). It is easy to communicate with the user and honestly I was kind of surprised how detailed the response to the suggestions where, that I made in DMs.
Great plugin. Always wanted to ride dragons. The free version was already fun, but the paid version makes it much easier to keep the number of dragons under control. I can recommend this plugin wholeheartedly.
