BannerBlinds

Introduction

BannerBlinds exists to let players have what feels like toggleable blinds/curtains in their buildings. It works by detecting the bounds of blinds and if retracted, replicating banners vertically downward. If not retracted, it removes the banners until only one remains.

Installation

Copy BannerBlinds-{version}.jar to your plugins folder within Paper.

Usage

Simply right-click (place) with an empty hand on a banner hanging on a wall.

Arrangement

Banners are considered continous blinds if they terminate on the same Y-value and are oriented the same way. Multiple colors can be used side by side, but not within a column, as the top-most color will be replicated down.

Banners must end on the same row.

Banners cannot change colors within a column.

Any color is acceptable, and adjacent columns can be different colors.

Configuration

By default, BannerBlinds can be used by all players and have a maximum continous detection of 100 blocks in any direction. In BannerBlinds/config.yml, you can adjust this:

usePermission: true
maxWidth: 200
maxHeight: 200

If usePermission is set to true, players must have the bannerblinds.use permission to extend or retract them.
