Staff SMP

# StaffSMP > !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/0618db7ba38d7c9b5060e219c840b06a321a77d6.webp) **Class-based magic staves for SMP servers.** Five distinct classes, each with a unique 3D staff, two active abilities, and a class-defining passive. Pick your class manually with `/class`, or fire up `/staffsmp start` to randomly roll one for every player on the server. Don't like your class? Craft a **Reroller** to swap into another. Built for **Paper 1.21.x** with a companion resource pack (1.21.4+) for the custom staff and projectile models — grab it here: **(https://modrinth.com/project/staff-smp-resource-pack)**. --- ## The five classes | Class | Right-click | Shift + Right-click | Passive | |---|---|---|---| | **Electric Wizard** | Strike a lightning bolt at your crosshair (60 blocks) | Teleport through space, damaging any entity caught in the path | — | | **Mage** | Launch a fireball with a custom 3D model | Brief levitation, then slow-falling for aimed fire | — | | **Monk** | Quick forward dash (0.4s cooldown) | Leap toward the nearest player; shockwave knockback + damage on landing | Double jump · No fall damage | | **Druid** | Throw a healing AOE ball that explodes into hearts | Buff your target (or self) with Speed + Haste | +2 hearts max health | | **Ranger** | Channel a thin laser beam that ticks damage on target | Drop a wind-charge under you — radial knockback + guaranteed rocket-jump | — | All abilities have configurable cooldowns, ranges, and damage values. --- ## Features ### Class locking After your first `/class` pick, you're committed. Only operators can change your class via `/staffadmin give`. ### Random SMP mode Run **`/staffsmp start`** and every online player is instantly re-rolled into a random class with a totem-of-undying screen flash and the Ender Dragon death roar. Every new joiner from that point on is auto-rolled on connect. Effects only play on each player's first-ever staff give — no cacophony on rerolls. ### Class Reroller Craft a **Class Reroller** to change your class: ``` Netherite Diamond Netherite Diamond Heart of the Sea Diamond Netherite Diamond Netherite ``` Right-click the reroller to open a class-picker GUI showing all 5 staves — click the one you want to become. The reroller is consumed on use and respects a configurable cooldown. Don't want the GUI? Set `reroller.gui: false` in config and the reroller will instantly roll a random class (20% chance per class, current class included). ### Per-ability boss bar cooldowns Every ability cooldown shows as its own colored boss bar at the top of your screen — and stacks alongside other active cooldowns, so you always know exactly what's available. Color-coded by class: - 🟦 **Wizard** — blue - 🟥 **Mage** — red - 🟨 **Monk** — yellow - 🟩 **Druid** — green - ⬜ **Ranger** — white - 🟪 **Reroller** — purple ### Trust system `/staff trust <player>` makes your staff abilities pass through that player harmlessly. `/staff untrust <player>` reverses it. `/staff list` shows who you're trusting. Trust is directional and persists across restarts. ### No more dropped staves Staves and rerollers can't be dropped via Q, drag-and-dropped into chests, shift-clicked into containers, placed in item frames, or stuck on armor stands. The restriction is absolute — even operators can't drop them (use `/staffadmin reset` to clean a player's inventory instead). The crafting table is exempt so you can actually use the reroller recipe. ### Keep on death Die with your staff and it's automatically returned to you on respawn. The staff is stripped from your death drops so it can't be looted. ### Self-damage immunity Your own abilities never hurt you — no rocket-jumping yourself into the void by accident, no lightning-bolting yourself on close-range strikes. ### One staff per player Class changes always strip old staves and give a new one cleanly. Toggleable in config if you want stackable staves. --- ## Commands ### Player - **`/class <wizard|mage|monk|druid|ranger>`** — Pick your starting class (one-shot) - **`/staff trust <player>`** — Trust a player; your staff won't damage them - **`/staff untrust <player>`** — Revoke trust - **`/staff list`** — Show who you're trusting ### Operator (`staffsmp.admin`, default op) - **`/staffsmp start`** — Begin SMP mode: roll all online players + auto-roll joiners - **`/staffsmp stop`** — Halt auto-rolling on join (existing classes preserved) - **`/staffsmp status`** — Check SMP mode state - **`/staffadmin give <player> <class|reroller>`** — Force-assign a class or grant a reroller - **`/staffadmin reset <player>`** — Wipe a player's class, passives, and staves - **`/staffadmin info <player>`** — View a player's current class - **`/staffadmin reload`** — Reload `config.yml` --- ## Configuration Everything is tunable in `plugins/StaffSMP/config.yml`: - Per-ability cooldowns, ranges, damage values, projectile co
