AnhyShop

Is a unique plugin for creating merchants and trading on Minecraft servers, based on the trading inventory of villagers. Tested on Spigot, Paper, Purpur server cores, version 1.20.4.

Essential Dependencies for AnhyShop

The primary requirement for AnhyShop to function is the installation of the AnhyLibAPI library version 1.5.2 or higher. Without AnhyLibAPI, AnhyShop will not operate. It provides translation of system messages and multilingual names for merchants.

Additionally, AnhyShop is compatible with AnhyLingo version 0.3.3 or higher. Installing AnhyLingo expands the multilingual capabilities of AnhyShop. However, its absence does not affect the primary operation of AnhyShop.

Expanded Functionality of AnhyShop Plugin Version 1.0.0

AnhyShop in version 1.0.0 introduces a new concept of "Sellers," which allow players to interactively trade with merchants through in-game objects. This enhances the trading experience by providing a more dynamic and convenient management of trading processes on the server.

Key Features of "Sellers":

1. Types of "Sellers":
   • Mechanical Objects: Buttons, doors, levers are identified by their type and the exact coordinates of their location.
   • Signs: Identification is based on the material type and the text displayed on the sign. Signs can be placed in different locations, but the text on them will determine a single "Seller."
   • Mobs with Custom Names: Utilizes the type of mob and its unique name for identification. Only mobs with custom names can become "Sellers."
   • Wandering Traders: All wandering traders, once linked, are recognized as one "Seller," allowing for a uniform change to their trading inventories.
   • Villagers: Identified by profession and level. Creating a "Seller" from a villager of a specific profession and level replaces standard trade operations for all similar villagers.

Commands to Manage "Sellers":

Note: All the commands listed below are available only to players with the anhyshop.seller permission.

• Creating a "Seller":

  • Command: /shop seller add <trader_key>
  • Description: Creates a "Seller" from the object the player is looking at, linking it to a selected trader using a unique key <trader_key>. The player must be within 5 blocks of the object.

• Removing a "Seller":

  • Command: /shop seller remove <seller_id>
  • Description: Removes a "Seller" using its unique numerical identifier <seller_id>.

• Viewing Information about a "Seller":

  • Command: /shop seller view <seller_id>
  • Description: Displays detailed information about the "Seller," including its type, location, linked trader, and identifier.

• Listing All "Sellers":

  • Command: /shop seller list
  • Description: Displays a list of all existing "Sellers," with the ability to copy <seller_id> to the clipboard, simplifying the management of identifiers for further operations.

These updates significantly enhance player interactions with traders, providing greater control and customization options for trading processes on Minecraft servers.

Language Personalization

Multilingual Functionality in AnhyShop with AnhyLibAPI and AnhyLingo Integration

1. System Messages Localization (AnhyLibAPI): Stored in shop_XX.yml files within the lang folder.
2. Trader Names Translation (AnhyLibAPI): Add translations in traders_XX.yml.
3. Multilingual Item Display in Trades (AnhyLingo): Trades involving multilingual items display these items in the player's chosen language.

AnhyShop's integration with AnhyLibAPI and AnhyLingo enhances usability across different languages and enriches the trading experience, making it inclusive and globally accessible.
