How to Create RPG Classes/Ranks for server
Have you tried plugin after plugin looking for the perfect one to help you create a RPG server? I know I have and everyone also has something I wish I could change or goes out of date. Well after much frustration I found a way to make the classes myself.
Needed:
- Bukkit Server
- Essentials (make sure you get essentials anitbuild also)
- GroupManager
- List of Classes and how u want them defined.
For my server we have 5 classes. Farmer, Blacksmith, Soldier, Magician, Alchemist. Using the permissions plugin GroupManger and Essentials Antibuild I was able to create each rank, make a special kit, and modify what they can do. For this tutorial, I will use Farmer and Blacksmiths as my example.
The Steps
1. In GroupManger create you ranks, and be sure to place false where it says build:true. This combined with anti build makes it so no player can build anything without permission nodes to do so.
2. Now give the groups this permission node essentials.build.* The * means that they can build everything.
3. This next step is how we start customizing each rank. For my Farmer and Blacksmith ranks, I wanted them to be the only ones who could do things related to their job. Blacksmiths craft all armor and weapons. So for farmer I TOOK AWAY permission to create any armor or weapons after wood and leather. You will need item ids for this.
Example. Diamond Chestplate is 311. So I would give Farmer this permission node
-essentials.build.craft.311
The negative sign in front of it means that you are taking away the permission to craft a diamond chest plate.
Another example, is I wanted only farmers to plant seeds. So I would give Blacksmith and another ranks these permissions.
Example. Wheat seed is 295.
-essentials.build.place.295
These are just two examples on how you can set up your classes. With anti build you can limit ppl form placing, breaking, interacting, crafting, picking up, and dropping items. On my server only Alchemists can craft and interact with a potion stand. I have found that by giving ppl all the permissions and then only taking away the ones that deal with each rank is the easiest route.
4. Making kits with Essentials is very easy. You define what each kit in the main config. Then you give the rank the permission for that kit. So my farmers get the permission essentials.kits.farmer
There are so many possibilities and its all customizable by you. Now you can have your own custom role-play server without limited plugins that don't stay up to date.
If you would like to use my groupmanger file leave me a comment and I will post a link.

I'm going to make a RPG server and I'm thinking of using commandblocks for it because I can't find a NPC quest plugin. :/
Can you give me your map?
