Allow Lockpicking

Introduction

This plugin adds the ability to pick doors, chests, furnaces, trapdoors, fence gates and dispensers with a "lock-pick" item. This plugin will not lock any of these items - it just provides players with a method to circumvent them.

In Game Usage

Players just need to be holding the lock-pick item in their hand and right click on a chest or a door to try to pick the lock. If the pick is successful, the door or chest will open.

Features

  • Should work with any locking plugin (tested with LWC, Lockette, BukkitInventoryTools, Deadbolt)
  • Supports permissions (allowlockpicking.canpick) - defaults to ops
  • Configurable lock-pick item (allows multiple lock-picks)
  • Configurable messages
  • Configurable chance of success
  • Option to lose lock-pick on use or just failure
  • Configurable damage dealt on failure
  • Teleport player to a location on failure (like Jail)
  • Run a command automatically on failure (like /report)

Known Bugs

  • Does not prevent other locking plugins from displaying their messages if something is supposed to be locked but the user bypasses it.
