Minstrel

This plugin aims to add a Minstrel trait to Citizens NPCs which is able to play a set of songs from a custom resource pack. While there are plugins which use workarounds, this plugin aims to make the best npc-based "music box" add-on one can create within the Spigot API. While kind of hard to set up, this allows using any music, without compromise. Note: To make music hear-able only within the area of an NPC, you must make sure the track is Mono (1 channel). If you use a Stereo (2 channels) soundtrack, you'll hear the music everywhere, which is cool if you want to stream music globally.

Volume between 0 and 1 decides how loud the volume is. If volume is set above 1, it will still play at full volume, but can be heard further away.

Dependencies

• Citizens

Important to note

There are limitations connected to directly playing media using playSound:

• There is no way to really know what is playing for a player. The best one can do is track any time a song is played outside the global cycle.
• When a new player joins there are only two ways to make the music play for the player: Either play immediately, and cut the song short once the playlist switches songs, or play nothing until the playlist switches songs. None of these are ideal.
• Songs are really only identified by the category and the song id. Stopping the song for one minstrel will also stop the song if played by any other minstrels at the same time. As songs are only stopped if a song has been played for a player outside the global cycle, it shouldn't be too much of a problem, but if several minstrels play the same song, there may be silent minstrels until the next song plays.
