Making your own Origins-Reborn addon

To make an Origins-Reborn addon, you first need to know how to make a Paper plugin.

You can find a guide to making Paper plugins here.

Once you have a basic Paper plugin set up, you can begin to make an Origins-Reborn addon.

First, you need to make your main class extend OriginsAddon, rather than JavaPlugin. This is so that your plugin is detected as an Origins-Reborn addon, rather than just being considered a normal plugin.

You will need to implement the getNamespace method in your addon, where you have to return a String representing your addon. Set this to any short string of text representing your plugin.

If you have an onEnable method in your plugin's main class, you may notice that it is now showing an error.

This is because Origins-Reborn addons override the onEnable method by default to perform tasks related to registering the plugin as an addon.

You can easily fix this by renaming your onEnable method to onRegister, which is called at the start of onEnable in Origins-Reborn addons.

To add custom powers, you need to override the getAbilities method, and return a list. This is where you'll return the custom powers your want to be registered.

This is what your main class should look like at this point:

public class Main extends OriginsAddon {

    @Override
    public @NotNull String getNamespace() {
        return "my_cool_addon";
    }

    @Override
    public @NotNull List<Ability> getAbilities() {
        return List.of(
        );
    }
}

To create custom abilities, you need to make classes that implement Ability classes. For examples of custom abilties you can see the abilities directory in the Origins-Monsters plugin.

To register your custom abilities, you need to return a new instance of them in the getAbilities method, like this:

@Override
public @NotNull List<Ability> getAbilities() {
    return List.of(
            new MyFirstCoolAbility(),
            new MySecondAbility()
    );
}

In order to ensure your plugin is loaded after Origins-Reborn, add it to your plugin's dependencies. For a plugin.yml, this is how to set a plugin as a dependancy:

depend:
  - Origins-Reborn

Finally, build your plugin and add it to your server's plugins folder.
