Wavetrack

WaveTrack Plugin Open-source project for the AsianF4rmer Network and DataThorn Technologies family.

A Spigot/Bukkit plugin for Minecraft 1.8 that allows developers to play preconfigured sound tracks to players using a single command instead of multiple /playsound commands.

Features

• Track-based Sound System: Create reusable sound tracks with multiple sounds
• Delay Support: Add delays between sounds in a track (measured in ticks, 20 ticks = 1 second)
• Nearby Player Support: Optionally play sounds to nearby players at a reduced volume
• Category Organization: Organize tracks into categories for better management
• In-game Configuration: Create and edit tracks using commands without editing config files
• YAML Configuration: All tracks are saved to config.yml for easy manual editing
• Tab Completion: Full tab completion support with common Minecraft 1.8 sounds
• Permission System: Granular permissions for different command actions

Commands

All commands start with /wavetrack (alias: /wt)
