PK Addon Class Wizard - Skipping the foreplay

xNuminousx · Aug 29, 2017

"Skipping the foreplay" lol

**when your phone can't load the description because the entire thing is a picture and you don't have service because of a hurricane**

Anyways, it sounds like an awesome thing! Hopefully this opens the gates for new awesome addons and not bland repetitive ones

This looks like a great idea! I haven't been able to test it, but kudos to you!

Thank you! Keep in mind that installing plugins the way this one has to be is unnofficial, so it might need a few tries.

Good job Finn! Makes time no waste! This would come in handy to any developers of any skill, let it be novice or proficient ones.

Do you know where the Dropins folder is on a Mac, or where it would go? I can't find the correct folder for it. I can only find the workplace folder.

Using it now and it seems pretty sweet, though maybe add a text field for instructions under description too?

I FOUND A BUG!
I tried to make this wizard as bug free as possible, but few bugs slipping through is unavoidable. So if you do find a problem, please report it on the resource thread, with an explanation how to recreate the problem. Without that, I can't do much to fix it, sadly!

Odd punctuation you got there in the order list (not shaming you, but just giving my observation).

@Kess , the reviews aren't really for asking questions... I'd suggest leaving that for the discussions or private messaging.

I have really wanted to start learning how to make an ability. I looked at your other post about how to make an ability. I have no knowledge of coding, should I start here? Or there? Or somewhere else?

Dont start here. Start learning Java, then get into spigot, then come back here.

Okay thanks!

captainstuboo25 · Dec 29, 2017

I tried using this and I clicked finish, then it said Error 1. Does anyone know what this means?

xNuminousx · Dec 29, 2017

Could we see a screenshot of the GUI when you clicked finished? Or maybe the error message if it says something more than "Error 1"? I probably won't be able to help you as I'm not well versed in these types of things but surely Finn will need more information.

By this I mean the screen before you clicked finished. Maybe you entered a variable wrong or something, idk. But we'd need to see it to be able to tell what happened.

captainstuboo25 · Dec 29, 2017
