Wikis / MythicSeasons / Commands And Permissions

Commands And Permissions

MythicSeasons has one admin command, /ms (also /mythicseasons), and six player commands. This page uses the default names from commands.yml.

<argument> is required, [argument] optional. A left-out [world] is the sender's world, and the console has to name one (Add a world: /ms <command> <world>).

Messages come from the language file, apart from a few fixed English texts and the list /ms biomelist writes to the console.

commands.yml

plugins/MythicSeasons/commands.yml has one entry per command. Changes need a restart.

Option What it does
<entry>.enabled false removes the command and its /ms help line.
<entry>.name What players type. It is turned into lowercase and a leading slash is dropped. A name with a space or a colon keeps the default, with a warning.
<entry>.aliases Other names for the command. Invalid ones are skipped with a warning.
Entry Default name Aliases
ms ms mythicseasons
toggleseasoncolors toggleseasoncolors none
toggletemperature toggletemperature none
toggleseasonparticles toggleseasonparticles none
togglefahrenheit togglefahrenheit none
cloudquality cloudquality none
togglecloudlayer togglecloudlayer none
  • When another plugin has the name, the command only works as /mythicseasons:<name>, and the console names the key to change.
  • A missing entry or key takes the bundled value.
  • /season and /currentbiome are gone. Use /ms getinfo.

Player commands

Command Permission What it does
/ms getinfo [world] mythicseasons.getinfo Season information, see Season information.
/toggleseasoncolors mythicseasons.toggleseasons Turns season colours, block replacements and populators off or on for you.
/toggleseasonparticles mythicseasons.toggleparticles Turns season particles off or on for you: player-tick-particles skills skip you and <mythicseasons.particles> reads false.
/toggletemperature [player] mythicseasons.toggletemperature, with a name mythicseasons.toggletemperature.others Hides or shows the temperature readout for you or an online player.
/togglefahrenheit mythicseasons.togglefahrenheit Switches your readout between Celsius and Fahrenheit, the opposite of display.convert-to-fahrenheit in temperature.yml.
/cloudquality [quality] mythicseasons.cloudquality Sets your cloud detail to off or a preset from clouds.quality.presets (shipped low, medium, high). Players without a valid choice get clouds.quality.default (shipped high). See Quality.
/togglecloudlayer [layer] mythicseasons.togglecloudlayer Hides or shows a group of cloud layers for you. See Player toggles.
  • Everyone has these permissions by default, except mythicseasons.toggletemperature.others (operators).
  • The console can use /ms getinfo <world> and /toggletemperature <player>. The others answer Players only.
  • Choices are saved in data.yml (players.colorsdisabled, particlesdisabled, tempdisabled, fahrenheit-mode, cloud-quality and cloud-layers) every performance.autosave-interval-minutes, at season changes and at shutdown, so a crash can lose the latest ones.
  • /toggleseasoncolors only changes chunks sent afterwards (new chunks, a season or phase change, rejoining).
  • /toggletemperature <player> needs .others, also for your own name. Off also hides the pack's warnings (hastemperature becomes false), but temperature keeps working.

Season information

What /ms getinfo [world] shows:

Line Shown when
Season The world has a season. Otherwise, and in the Nether and the End, it prints Seasons are off in this world.
Date, days until the next season, time, events, days until the next event The calendar is on and the world has a date. The days lines also need a next season in season-cycle and an upcoming event.
Air temperature A player ran it without a world name, and temperature is on.

A line left empty in the language file is not sent.

Seasons and calendar

These need mythicseasons.admin. Nether and End worlds cannot have seasons (No seasons in the Nether or the End).

Command What it does
/ms set <season> [world] Sets the season by id, in any case. Without a valid id it lists the ids. With the calendar and sub-seasons on, it also moves the date to the middle of the season, even when that season is already active: next year if the date is on or past that day, year 0 in a world that had no season.
/ms nextseason [world] Moves to the next season in season-cycle and the date to its start (next year if that day has passed). Prints nothing on success, and does nothing when the current season is not in season-cycle.
/ms disable [world] Turns seasons off and resends chunks. The date is kept, and the daylight cycle game rule comes back on when modify-daynight-length is on.
/ms setdate <date> [world] Sets the date, see Calendar.
/ms pausetime [world] Pauses or resumes time, see The clock.
/ms event list [world] Lists the running events and the others.
/ms event start <event> [world] Starts an event and runs its start lines. It stays on until /ms event stop, the end of its schedule, /ms reload or a restart. Refused in a world without a season, in worlds-without-events, in the event's disabled-worlds and when another plugin cancels it.
/ms event stop <event> [world] Stops an event and runs its stop lines. It stays off until /ms event start, its schedule starts it again, /ms reload or a restart. Refused in a world without a season.
  • /ms set (when it moves the date), /ms nextseason and /ms setdate count as a date change, so events start and stop as on a new day. To test a dated event, move the date from outside its range into it.
  • With automatic-season-cycling on, the calendar puts the date's season back within a second, so /ms set only sticks when it moves the date. Otherwise use /ms nextseason or /ms setdate. With sync-time-with-real-world: true, only automatic-season-cycling: false lets a command pick the season.
  • In synced-worlds the date furthest ahead wins within a second: a date a command sets is replaced when another synced world is ahead, and copied to the others otherwise.
  • For a season with no usable length in calendar.yml (no start date or no next season), /ms set keeps the date: Date unchanged, <season> has no usable length in calendar.yml.

Temperature commands

These need mythicseasons.admin. See Temperature.

Command What it does
/ms temperature toggle [world] Turns temperature on or off for a world, also in the Nether and the End. Saved in data.yml.
/ms temperature modify <player> <change> <seconds> Adds a timed change of <change> whole degrees (negative cools) to an online player, on the real clock and kept over restarts and logouts. All changes together stay within temperature-modify-command.min and .max of config.yml. 0 seconds or less expires at once.
/ms temperature modify <player> <change> FIXED(<min>,<max>) Silently adds <change> to the player's running total, kept between <min> and <max>. FIXED(<min>,<max>,<ticks>) takes the change back after that many ticks, never past 0. The total lives in memory only: a restart clears it, clear does not, and the config.yml limits do not apply.
/ms temperature clear <player> Removes the player's timed modify changes. The FIXED total and ModifyTemp modifiers stay.
/ms temperature info <player> The player's body and air temperature, the sum of their timed changes and whether temperature is on for them.

Write FIXED in capitals, with commas and no spaces. The plain form counts seconds, the third FIXED number ticks.

/ms temperature modify Steve -5 FIXED(-20,20)

Lowers Steve's running total by 5 and keeps it between -20 and 20 until the next restart.

Atmosphere commands

These need mythicseasons.admin. Console output goes to the server log, see Debugging.

Command What it does
/ms weather <preset> [radius] [minutes] Players only. Forces the simulated weather around you: clear dries the air, rain moistens it, storm also adds rising air for thunderstorms, reset ends every forced weather in your world, skills' included. Radius in blocks (default 1024), duration in real minutes (default 10).
/ms atmosphere or /ms atmosphere info The simulation's settings, every enabled world with its regions, the cloud layer with its presets, and the cloud fog pack.
/ms atmosphere toggle [world] Turns the simulation on or off in an overworld-type world, saved in data.yml. With the master switch in atmosphere.yml off, nothing runs until it is on and /ms reload has run.
/ms atmosphere stats Players only. The weather and clouds at your position and in the levels above you.
/ms atmosphere debug [field] Players only. Live boss bars and particles for temp, wind, precip and cloud, each toggled on its own. Without a field it turns everything off, or temp on when nothing was on.
/ms atmosphere profile [world] The atmosphere settings and cloud layers that apply to the world, and where each comes from.
/ms atmosphere profiles Lists the files in atmosphere-profiles (shipped: example and mars).
/ms atmosphere dumpclouds Players only. Writes your clouds to plugins/MythicSeasons/debug/cloud-dump-<player>-<time>.txt.
  • atmo works in place of atmosphere.
  • /ms weather prints No simulated weather here where this server does not simulate the weather.
  • On the shipped settings clear works in about 10 seconds, rain in about half a minute (summer air may thunder), and storm thunders in about 20 seconds in spring and summer, 2 minutes in winter.
/ms weather rain 512 5

Rain within 512 blocks of you for 5 minutes.

Plugin commands

Command Permission What it does
/ms or /ms help none The command list. Only the console and holders of mythicseasons.admin see the admin commands.
/ms reload mythicseasons.admin Reloads the files, see Reloading.
/ms debug mythicseasons.admin Toggles debug mode (off again after a restart) and reloads. While on, the console logs a stack trace whenever MythicSeasons itself loads a chunk (only if modify-blocks was on at startup).
/ms health mythicseasons.admin Chunk rewrite times over the last 200 chunks (not active while none are rewritten) and the pending MythicSeasons scheduler tasks.
/ms biomelist mythicseasons.admin Writes the plugin's biomes and their replacements per season (and per phase with sub-seasons on) to the console.

An unknown subcommand prints Unknown command, see /ms help. Without mythicseasons.admin, everything except help and getinfo answers No permission.

Reloading

/ms reload reads, in this order: config.yml, seasons/, crops.yml, lang/, temperature.yml, calendar.yml, events/, the season populators and block replacements, then atmosphere.yml with its folders and the atmosphere sections of the biome files. Chunks players already have are not sent again.

  • It prints Reloaded and, every time, Biome file changes need a restart.
  • When a step fails it prints Reload stopped part-way: <error>, and the steps before it stay applied. If config.yml cannot be read, nothing is reloaded.
  • A YAML error in a season file, temperature.yml, calendar.yml or atmosphere.yml only shows in the console, and the reload still reports success. A broken calendar.yml keeps the previous calendar.

These need a restart:

File Not reloaded
biomes/ Everything except the atmosphere sections: colours, replacements, freeze-in-winter, show-snow-instead-of-rain, temperature-difference.
season files foliage-transitions.
config.yml performance.*, biome-display-name, optimized-custom-biomes and the colour blending order of season-cycle.
atmosphere.yml grid.cell-size, grid.y-min, grid.y-max, timing.step-period-ms, timing.time-acceleration, physics.solver-threads, shared-weather-group and clouds.enabled.
calendar.yml time-sync-timezone set back to system.
commands.yml, griefprevention.yml Everything.

The MythicMobs pack reloads with /mm reload, see Packs. data.yml is only read at startup.

Tab completion

Suggestions only offer what the sender may use. atmo works but is never offered.

Permission Default Checked by
mythicseasons.admin operators Every /ms subcommand except help and getinfo, the admin part of /ms help and of the /ms suggestions, the /ms set hint of /ms getinfo, and the welcome that, while no world has a season, tells the first holder to join to run /ms set <season>.
mythicseasons.getinfo everyone /ms getinfo and its suggestions.
mythicseasons.toggleseasons everyone /toggleseasoncolors.
mythicseasons.toggleparticles everyone /toggleseasonparticles.
mythicseasons.toggletemperature everyone /toggletemperature for yourself.
mythicseasons.toggletemperature.others operators /toggletemperature <player>, also with your own name.
mythicseasons.togglefahrenheit everyone /togglefahrenheit.
mythicseasons.cloudquality everyone /cloudquality and its suggestions.
mythicseasons.togglecloudlayer everyone /togglecloudlayer and its suggestions.
  • There is no mythicseasons.* node, and mythicseasons.admin does not include the others. A group with only mythicseasons.admin cannot use /toggletemperature <player>, although it can use /ms temperature on anyone.
  • The console passes every check.
