What is it?

No smoking allows you to spawn some smoke at your Minecraft worlds. It was created to steam-punk style server to simulate steams and smokes. But after releasing second version the name of the "No Smoking!" acquires a new meaning: now it's an acronym of "Not Only Smoking!" because now plugin is able to produce 8 types of different effects in addition to smoke. You can see demonstration of plugin abilities on this video.
