Fun Mechanics

Gold Panning!

GoldRush lets your users pan for gold in all watery areas that contain sand, clay, dirt, and gravel below-water! Using the custom item* you can make a gold pan, which has a pseudo-durability (default of 10 uses). Gold drop possibilities are configurable via the configuration file, the lower the number the lower the chance of it dropping, however "-1" will turn the block off.

Footnote: Crafting recipe is as follows:

Gold Pan

Lab

The Crazy Lab

Defualt ranked blocks:

  1. Clay (The highest)
  2. Gravel
  3. Dirt
  4. Sand (The least)
Warning!

If gold will effect your server economy, be sure to BlackList the cauldron item and sell it in a shop. The bowl should not effect anything, due to the inefficiency of the method. I do not recommend this plugin for Tekkit if you use EquivalentExchange, as gold is worth a very high amount of EMC.

Requirements

  • Permissions plugin (GroupManager, PEX, etc.)
  • Permission Node - goldrush.pan

Future Improvements

  • Option for pre-defined areas to pan
  • Maximum amount of gold panned per block
  • Timed spawning of items in cauldrons (similar to rain filling a cauldron)

Announcements

  • Added pseudo-durability to the bowl item

How to pan for gold

  1. Build a gold pan
  2. Find a lake-bed/river-bed with: dirt, sand, gravel, or clay blocks
  3. Right click with a gold pan

In development is an official Gold Rush server for all of my plugins to be shown off in a (hopefully) interesting fashion.
