Stand-in

Stand-in is a plugin all about manipulating entities for visual effects.

Features

Only visible armor stands and entities spawned by this plugin can be edited or replaced to prevent conflicts with other plugins. You can force the edit by granting standin.edit-anything and standin.convert-anything. This will allow for editing ANY supported entity, including ones spawned by plugins, which may lead to unexpected behavior.

Entity replacement

Replace armor stands to other entities such as mannequins and (in the future) display entities.

standin.change_type.<entity_type> - Permission that allows changing to specified entity type (only if it's supported).

Middle click (pick entity action) on most entities will display a dialog allowing for changing entity type. This currently will NOT work for mannequins. Alternatively you can open the edit menu with shift + right click on the entity and choosing "Change type" option.

Entity manipulation

Manipulate properties of entities, such as setting player profiles on mannequins, making armor stands invisible and more.

Edit menu can be opened with shift + right click on the entity.

standin.edit.<entity_type> - Permission that allows editing specified entity type (only if it's supported.).

Future

Plugin is currently in early development and will evolve to include more features such as:

• Manipulating armor stand parts individually
• Preset armor stand poses
• Allowing more entity types for replacement (text display, item display, block display)
• Possibly simple AI for mannequins (big question mark on this one)
• Whatever gets suggested and will not be pain to implement
