Donkey Dupe

Status: Active

The in-famous donkey dupe has been brought back, with a twist. Certain requirements need to be met in order to be able to successfully execute the dupe.

Start by watching the demonstration video below, then come back to this page to read through the requirements.

Note: It's unlikely you will get the results you expect without reading everything on this page!!!

Individual Player Vote
Each time you vote you are given a permission node for 24-hours from the time you vote. Without the permission node the server will tell you that you don't have permission if it detects the following sequence:
 * Donkey travels through a nether portal.
 * Donkey dies within a second of arriving in the other dimension.

Special note: The donkey owner needs to have voted in order for the dupe process to work.

Group Votes
A certain number of players need to have voted daily for the dupe to be active. The number is currently 12, so encourage everyone to vote!

Note: The "day" rolls over at 23:59 EST. So, depending on where you are in the world you may have to get creative on when you try to dupe.

This was never coded into the plugin. Noted here as not a requirement.

Players Online
A certain number of players need to be online for the dupe to be active. You'll be told in game when you try to dupe how many this is, as the number does change from time-to-time, with the ebb and flow of players active on the server.

Locations
Different locations on the server have different lists of items which cannot be duped. The location is the coordinate your donkey does in.

Shulkers can be duped anywhere. However, if the Shulker contains blacklisted items the entire Shulker will not be duped.

You will receive messages as this happens:



Inner Spawn
From 0 to 250 (Nether) or 0 to 2000 (Overworld) is considered inner spawn. It has the fewest items on the blacklist which cannot be duped.

The intention here is you are duping PVP kits and are prepared to fight for duping privileges if it comes to it.

Blacklisted items:



Outer Spawn
From 250 to 625 (Nether) or 2,000 - 5,000 (Overworld) is considered outer spawn. It has additional blacklisted items which cannot be duped.

The intention is if you are duping here you are duping certain kits.

Blacklisted items:



Wilderness
Any place further from spawn (0, 0) higher than 625 (Nether) or 5,000 (Overworld) is considered the wilderness. It has the most blacklisted items.

The intention is if you are duping in the location you are a builder rather than a PVP'er.

Blacklisted items:



Note: This list did include Axe, pickaxe, shovel and hoe. However, these are now allowed since they are building and farming tools.



Q & A
Why can't I dupe within the comfort of my own base?

You can dupe all manner of building blocks in your base outside of spawn. If you want to dupe PVP kits you'll likely need to be somewhere near to spawn to use them. So it only makes sense to bring the duping and use of kits closer to spawn. The other motivation is to make overworld map < 5k more "used". The hope / expectation is players will build temp bases in the sub 5k area of the map as dupe staging areas.

On the same line of thought, use fast travel on the server. To get from your main base to spawn, stand in a Nether portal for 30 seconds to get teleported to a random location around spawn (via the anti-portal trap plugin). To get back to your main base (your bed location), travel through the end, you will be spawned at your bed when coming back from the end island.

'''I visited someone else's dupe stash and I can't dupe. What gives?'''

The plugin needs to validate certain things against the owner of the donkey. If the owner of the donkey is not online the dupe plugin won't work.

So the easy answer here is to always try to dupe with a donkey you have tamed yourself.
