[Help] How do I add effects such as Wither to weapons for AoD maps?
- Thread starter Natsu
- Start date
It's been done before on a different server - I am sure of the effects.
Though, it may require extra coding, so, we may not be able to do this.
No, only minecraft-approved enchantments can be applied to weapons from the bukkit list;

You can however set 'on hit' potion effects, which will occur when a player is hit... You can't however restrict this to a weapon, or anything fancy like that.

This is done on many a HG server; kits may include a Viper, and when they hit someone with their swor, the target is poisoned. Likewise, some kits can throw fire charges as ghast fireballs. The thing is, the items aren't actually affected; the kits are. Someone who grabs a Pirate's firecharges can't blast them, nor poison with a viper's sword. More evidence is that the Thor kit (which entails hitting the ground with an axe to spawn lightning) still works of your axe breaks and you craft another. This setup works nicely for the little Hunger Games servers that they're used on, as they're simple, and cater for the simple needs of the game.
Edit: Ninja'd by Listings, who better explained it in less loopy literature, and even has a solution. I completely forgot about the OnAttack and OnDefend effects
If you're fine with all hunters/all survivors having the weapon ability, you can use the OnAttack or OnDefend potion effects as described by LISTINGS - they may be expanding the options for enchanted weapons in the future, but right now you'll need another plugin to do what you're describing.
If command blocks are enabled you could use them to check if someone is given fire damage (this would require making only one source of fire damage though), and giving someone wither instead of fire. You could also have it check for a specific potion effect (waterbreathing? Night vision? haste?) and give someone wither if they have that effect. Then you could give hunters/survivors/chests a waterbreathing splash, and let them use it to poison people 
)
Only per side on the server. Either all hunters have it, or all survivors have it.
You could do the command block method I suggested, but that would only work for fire damage on weapons to a different damage.
This is not possible, With 2 exceptions only for the HOLDER of the weapon,
These 2 are:
Swiftness (generic.movementSpeed)
And Health Boost (generic.maxHealth)
These can be applied by using 3rd party tools like NBTedit, In-game NBTedit (Recommended) And NBTExplorer.
These are the Attribute System from 1.6. Tough currently it is impossible to add potion effects to weapons that affect the enemy "On-Hit" As you describe it.
Other 2 attributes are:
Knockback resistance (Decides how much you negate knock back) (generic.knockbackResistance)
and Following Range, (Decides from how far away hostile mobs can spot you) (generic.followingRange)
These can be applied using NBTedit, Unless you're an OP/Administrator on BuildBox these need to be applied in SinglePlayer, You can always PM me to do this for you tough.
It does come down to using NBTedit again.

MCedit just includes a cheap NBTedit spin-off.
