Bypass gamemode not bypassing

[Vinomadd]

Hello there. I am using bukkit 1.3.1 R-2.0, permissions bukkit and multiverse core, portals, and sign portals.

The problem I'm having is that, when I give a group mv.bypass.gamemode.*, or when I give a player mv.bypass.gamemode.(name), it does not bypass. All the worlds are set for survival but certain players are to have creative and each time they log on or change worlds, it puts them back in survival.

I'm really not sure what I've done wrong here but any pointers would be very appreciated! Thanks for your time.

I have the same issue.

I'm using bukkit version 1.3.2-R0.2 along with Essentials and Essentials-GroupManager for permissions.

I have set my "Admin" group to have the permission mv.bypass.gamemode.* but as far as I can tell it has absolutely no effect.

Anyone set as admin gets switched back to survival mode when they log in or teleport/portal between worlds. Regardless of what gamemode they were in to start with.

I know there was a case sensitivity issue with specific world names (ie: it has to be the same case) not sure if that's still the case. (pun unintended).

Other than that, I don't know of any issues, but I haven't tested it in a while. I'll get back to you.

Please read this and know I'll be actively working to resolve the 250+ multiverse tickets: #912 (comment)

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply. As far as I understand it case sensitivity should not affect mv.bypass.gamemode.* because the * is a wildcard and matches all worlds?

You are correct about that, I was mainly refering to the per-world version.

Permissions are a huge pain to test, because we have to go get the plugin you're using and test with that. I know I've tested this feature extensively in the past, so I'm more inclined to believe it's the way your perm handler is dealing with things.

I don't see a check for mv.bypass.gamemode.*
https://github.com/Multiverse/Multiverse-Core/blob/master/src/main/java/com/onarandombox/MultiverseCore/utils/MVPermissions.java#L47

[main--]

It's a parent permission:

Multiverse-Core/src/main/java/com/onarandombox/MultiverseCore/MVWorld.java

Line 595 in 5a1fe2a

this.ignoreperm.addParent("mv.bypass.gamemode.*", true);

We will be overhauling how we handle permissions in 2.6. It's much too large of a change to shove into 2.5 while we're trying to prepare it for release. (And the overhaul should fix all these kind of issues.)
