Hello,
Among many other things, I'm looking into creating an alternative to BuyCraft that works with MCServer (probably for personal uses, I may release the source code eventually). However, it seems that sockets are not included in MCServer plugins yet (which is disappointing), and I have no interest in creating a system where the plugin checks for data every once in a while with an HTTP request.
Which brings me to my question: Is there any other way to inform an MCServer plugin that, for example, a purchase occurred?
If I were to add some other features I was hoping to add, such as cross-server private messaging, it would be quit inefficient to use HTTP requests.
Thanks,
Nathan
P.S. To be honest, I don't know much about the topic, but it shouldn't be too hard to simply include this in the source code, correct? Or do you plan on wrapping it in a more elegant API?
