Quick Start

Enabling Mechanics

All of CraftBook’s features are disabled by default. This is to allow server owners the ability to customise CraftBook to do exactly what they want it to do.

CraftBook’s features are broken up into modules called Mechanics.

You can enable or disable mechanics in the config.yml file (see Configuration), or via in-game commands.

First, you should decide which mechanics you actually wish to enable. Check out Mechanics Usage for information on each Mechanic.

Via the configuration

  • Open the plugins/CraftBook/config.yml file with your choice of text editor.

  • Set anything you want to enable to true, under the mechanics section of the config.

  • Restart the server or run /cb reload. (DO NOT use the /reload command. Click here to see why.)

Via commands

  • Run /cb mech list to bring up a list of available mechanics.

  • Click the [Enable] or [Disable] buttons to enable or disable the mechanic.

  • You can also enable or disable mechanics directly with /cb mech enable mechanic_name or /cb mech disable mechanic_name

Note

Due to limitations in the Spigot/Paper platform, mechanics that have commands won’t properly show completions until restarted if enabled while the server is running.

Configuring Mechanics

Many mechanics can be further configured. For more information on specific configuration options, check out that mechanic’s page found here.

To configure these mechanics, find the CraftBook/mechanics folder. In this folder, you’ll find the configuration files for each mechanic.

Using Mechanics

As each mechanic is used differently, the best point of reference is that mechanic’s page found here.
