Quickstart¶

Get SigmaTools up and running on your server in 5 minutes. This guide covers the absolute essentials to get you started.

Prerequisites¶

• Minecraft server running Spigot/Paper 1.17+
• Java 17 or higher
• Admin access to your server

Step 1: Download and Install¶

1. Download SigmaTools-1.0.3.jar from the releases page
2. Place the JAR file in your server's plugins/ folder
3. Start or restart your server

The plugin will create a plugins/SigmaTools/ folder with default configuration files.

Step 2: Give Yourself a Tool¶

Once the server has started, give yourself a tool to test:

/sigmatools give pickaxe YourName

Replace YourName with your Minecraft username. You should receive a SigmaTools Pickaxe in your inventory.

Step 3: Test the Tool¶

1. Equip the SigmaTools Pickaxe in your main hand
2. Break any block (stone, dirt, etc.)
3. You should see a 3x3 area of blocks break around the target block
4. Check the action bar - it shows your charges, durability, and economy stats

Step 4: Basic Configuration (Optional)¶

The default configuration works out of the box, but you can customize it:

1. Edit plugins/SigmaTools/config.yml
2. Make your changes
3. Reload the plugin:

/sigmatools reload

Common First-Time Configurations¶

Disable a tool:

tools:
  bucket:
    enabled: false  # Disable the bucket tool

Change economy currency:

economy:
  enabled: true
  currency: "coins"  # Use CoinsEngine instead of Vault

Adjust tool costs:

economy:
  costs:
    pickaxe: 10.0  # Cost 10 currency per use

Step 5: Verify Everything Works¶

Run the debug command to see plugin status:

/sigmatools debug status

You should see: - Master Debug status - Enabled categories - Integration status

Common First-Time Issues¶

Tool doesn't work¶

• Check you have the tool in your main hand (not off-hand)
• Verify you have permission: sigmatools.use.pickaxe (default: true)
• Check if the tool is enabled in config: tools.pickaxe.enabled

Economy not working¶

• Ensure Vault or CoinsEngine is installed and working
• Check economy.enabled: true in config
• Verify currency setting matches your economy plugin

Protection plugins blocking tool¶

• Check protection integration is enabled in config
• Verify you have permission to break blocks in the area
• Use bypass permission: sigmatools.bypass.protection (default: op)
