Help with Tekkit Permissions - Group Manager

[dragonfire967]

Hey, I have searched all over the web, and cannot find an answer to this simple question: What are the permission nodes to use with the Tekkit Mods (IC2, RedPower, RailCraft, etc), and will they work with Group Manager or do I need to use a different Permissions Plugin such as PEX or bPermissions? My server will be using towny, vault, essentials, and BOSEconomy (if they are compatible as well, of course.) Also, please note I want to make sure players can make / craft Tekkit items, as well as use Quarries and the like. Thanks for any info given. If this is the incorrect section to post this in, please let me know where.

Take this up with the plugin developers as mods do not directly have any permissions that will effect players your plugins will decide what players can do with items that are registered on the server and for that you need to nodes for each plugin you plan to use and a somewhat idea of how to pull it off.

If your really have no idea how to prepare the server and block items and other required things maybe you should not host one publicly unless its just for friends. At the very least you should be able to research enough to get the information required for what you are after.

I don't believe you searched because all these things are on Bukkits plugin pages and not here. You seem to know about plugins and what ones you are after try searching those plugins on Bukkits sites.

Tekkit by default Tekkit will allow any player to craft or place anything if you wish to control this you need to refer to your plugins configurations and assign groups and plugin permissions accordingly as well as spend a nice amount of time testing that your hard work is working.

thanks for the reply. At the moment its a private server that I'm working on to get all this fixed before making it public. I know how to setup a non-Tekkit server with all the plugins I listed without an issue, its just the tekkit side cause as soon as I install group manager it disables quarries and crafting tekkit items. I'll go ask the makers of group manager if they got some ideas.

I see, I used PEX but I am swapping to GroupManger because of something I found today that shed some light on how BAD Pex is written.

If Group Manger has any sort of item banning or build control built into it disable that and write your permissions config from scratch If your using essentials which I assume you are because of Bose-economy Essential my be blocking items but I don't think because I use the same thing and set mine up so it things are working and it never blocked anything from Tekkit.

Towny on the hand I know about as well and that WILL be an ass u need to add the mods Fake Users as residents but later version of Towny have Tekkit fake user support so I am not sure if u still need to do this. But you DO need to assign permissions for towny or no one will able to build and you do need to setup towny's default plot permissions or again residents wont be able to do anything until the town owner set the town permissions from in-game, you also need to add tekkit ITEM ID's where ever they are needed in both configs Essentials and Towny's, for instance if you want to stop people opening chests from tekkit as well the vanilla chests when u have Use permission in plots disabled you need to add these to the current list of USE/Switch items in towny.

The best way to do this is to log into the server bring up your inventory which should show NEI on the right a and in creative or cheat mode get all the items u need that can be accessed like a chest or have any sort of click able options u ID's and make a note of them all and start adding them in the right places in the configs for TOWNY and Essentials. Plugins will not support Tekkit by default, also if you want protection like HAWKEYE or LOGBLOCK for Rollbacks of grief you need to use a plugin called CoreProtect that does support Tekkit mods.

Actually I won't be using BOSEconomy, there seems to be a conflict issue with Tekkit unless I configured it wrong. when I type help, it just says "null". I'm just going to use the built in EssentialsEco since I know that works with towny and group manager. I downloaded the CoreProtect plugin and checking it out now.
