Developer API

WipeBlock has an API for other plugins:

• bool AnyBlocked() - Checks if any items are currently blocked
• int SecondsFromWipe() - Returns the number of seconds since the wipe (adjusted by time indent)
• bool IsBlocked(ItemDefinition def) - Checks if a specific item definition is blocked
• bool IsBlocked(string shortName, ulong skin = 0) - Checks if an item with the specified shortname and skin is blocked
• int LeftTime(string shortName, ulong skin = 0) - Returns the remaining time in seconds until the specified item unlocks

Hooks

Other plugins can subscribe to these WipeBlock hooks:

• void OnWipeBlockEnded() - Called when all items have been unblocked

Example usage in your plugin:

private void OnWipeBlockEnded()
    {
    // Execute code when all WipeBlock items are unlocked
    Puts("All items have been unblocked!");
    // Perhaps enable your PVP plugin or other game-changing features
    }

Web Config Editor

Manage the WipeBlock settings in our web config editor. You change the config in a browser form instead of editing files on the server by hand.

P.S. The web config editor is open to members of the "WipeBlock" group in our Discord server. Join at https://discord.gg/mevent and ask for the group.

FAQ

Q: How do I configure which items are blocked and for how long?
A: In the WipeBlock.json configuration file, you can define categories (Weapons, Explosives, Attire, etc.) and set time periods in seconds for each item. For example, setting "3600" means the item will be blocked for 1 hour after wipe.

Q: Can players still find these items in-game during the block period?
A: Yes, players can still find or loot these items, but they cannot equip, use, or place them in their hotbar until the block period expires. The items will automatically move to their main inventory.

Q: Does this plugin affect all players equally?
A: By default, yes. You can grant the "WipeBlock.ignore" permission to specific players or groups so they bypass the restrictions.

Q: How will players know which items are blocked?
A: Players will see notifications when they try to use blocked items. They can also use the /block command to see the full list of blocked items and the time left until each one unlocks.

Q: Can I adjust the timers during a running wipe?
A: Yes, administrators can use the /wb.indent command to shift the time indent, which changes when items unlock.

Q: Does WipeBlock work with modded or custom items?
A: Yes, you can add any item to the configuration using its shortname and skin ID.

Q: How do I add WipeBlock to the ServerPanel menu?
A: Follow these steps:
1. Open ServerPanel menu in-game and click "+ADD CATEGORY" button
