Kits - Proposal to add an option for renamed items

CMDBOOK-2370 - Reported by amlette

Hello :)

I use the '''CommandBlock''' and included it on a kit to get it faster. By default, when '''CommandBlocks''' talks to a player, the consol return the name "@". To replace this automat's name by my server name (for example) I use an Anvil.

So I've got a suggestion. '''Can you make an option to add item name directly in kits ?'''

+Something like+ :

[kitname]
item,quantity,itemname

Thank you for your answer.

I'm working on something which should replace kits entirely. :)

Or rather be a more useful kit system with the old still in the background.

@Dark_Arc: Sounds interesting. Anything to share?

I found the current kit-system quit usable within other (read: personal) components, but, as a kit system itself, lacking most options that are needed. But this is more a problem of CommandBook lacking a proper and complete syntax for specifying item-metadata (CMDBOOK-2341 might be related), than a problem with the kits-component itself. Even if it might be a good idea to use yaml instead of a plain textfile.

The issue with item meta is bukkit doesn't have great support for item meta. They did implemented a few things that might allow it to be worked around though.

I was thinking at something similar to the Item syntax ME4502 implemented in CraftBook (see [here|https://github.com/sk89q/craftbook/blob/master/src/main/java/com/sk89q/craftbook/util/ItemSyntax.java]). It should cover all metadata currently possible within bukkit.
