About
I wanted to create an armor stand for each kit in my mini-game, and I quickly became frustrated with trying to use commands and numeric values to position the legs, arms, body and head of each armor stand, so I created this plugin which allows you to do all of this with ease. Among other features you can create any pose you wish just by holding right click on the tools and moving your cursor up and down on the armor stand. The plugin can also generate a summon command that will re-create the armor stand at any time.
Compatibility
- The latest version of Armor Stand Tools is compatible with Spigot/CraftBukkit 1.17 and later.
- For 1.13 to 1.16 download Armor Stand Tools v3.7.2.
- For 1.8 to 1.12 download Armor Stand Tools v2.4.3.
Features
- Summon armor stands.
- Name armor stands.
- Toggle: Gravity, Visibility, Arms, Base, Size, Invulnerability, Equipment Lock, Glow.
- Manipulate the x/y/z rotations of the Head, Body, Arms and Legs. The value depends on how high up the armor stand's body you click with the tool (i.e. click near the feet is one extreme, near the top of the head is the other extreme).
- Full control over armor stand's inventory (armor & items in hands).
- Pick up and move armor stands.
- Armor stand cloning tool.
- Save tool: Automatically generate a summon command to summon the armor stand in its current state. This can be saved to a command block or logged.
- Pick up as item: Convert an armor stand into an inventory item that when placed like a normal armor stand retains its inventory, pose and settings.
- Player head tool: Give an armor stand the head of a specific player.
- WorldGuard region support, including a custom WorldGuard flag. Setting the 'ast' flag for a region to deny turns off AST use in that region.
- Customizable language config file.
- Assign commands to armor stands that are run when a player right clicks that armor stand (see below).
Commands
- /astools or /ast : Give yourself all the armor stand tools (Note: Saves & clears your inventory which is restored by running this command again)
- /astools reload : Reload the plugin config files
- /ascmd add <priority> <delay> <player/console/bungee> <command/bungee_server_name> : Add an assigned command to the nearest armor stand. See the assigning commands section below for more info.
- /ascmd remove <command_number> : Remove a command from to the nearest armor stand (use /ascmd list to find the command number)
- /ascmd list: List the commands assigned to the nearest armor stand
- /ascmd cooldown <ticks> : Set the cooldown for the command on nearest armor stand (Setting this overrides the default cooldown from config.yml)
- /ascmd cooldown remove: Remove the cooldown for the command on nearest armor stand (Default cooldown set in config.yml will be used)
