# FAQ, Frequent Errors

First of all, you need a Minecraft server with Spigot/Paper. (No, plugins do NOT work locally.)

# 1. How to download and set up the plugin?

For a step-by-step tutorial, click here (opens new window).


# 2. I can only see diamond hoes!

You need our resource pack to be able to see the vehicles. Download it here (opens new window).

WARNING

As of version 2.4.0 (The Airplane Update), a new version of resource pack (v0.2) is required!


# 3. How to get a vehicle?

  • Execute /mtv menu and choose from dozens of vehicles!

    WARNING

    Permission mtvehicles.menu necessary.

  • Execute /mtv givecar <player> <UUID>.

    <player> - Player who must be online when the command is being executed.
    <UUID> - UUID of your desired vehicle (can be found in vehicles.yml (opens new window))

    WARNING

    Permission mtvehicles.givecar necessary.


# 4. How to get rid of a vehicle?

Shift and Right-click the vehicle to pick it up.

WARNING

You must OWN the vehicle or have the permission mtvehicles.oppakken.

BEWARE

Even after picking the vehicle up, it is still stored in the database and can be restored with the /mtv restore command.
To prevent this, delete it using /mtv delete while holding the item.


# 5. I am getting 'An internal error occurred...' error

Firstly, check your console and look for this message (time may be different, of course):

Plugin is disabled

And if you're attentive, you should have already seen this warning:
Incompatible version

This means you're using an incompatible Minecraft version. We always support the latest patch versions, except 1.14.x:

Version(s) Compatibility Version(s) Compatibility
Older than 1.12 ❌ Incompatible 1.16.4 Not guaranteed
1.12-1.12.1 Not guaranteed 1.16.5 ✔️ Compatible
1.12.2 ✔️ Compatible 1.17 Not guaranteed
1.13 ❌ Incompatible 1.17.1 ✔️ Compatible
1.13.1 Not guaranteed 1.18-1.18.1 Not guaranteed
1.13.2 ✔️ Compatible 1.18.2 ✔️ Compatible
1.14-1.14.4 ❌ Incompatible 1.19-1.19.4 ✔️ Compatible

1.15.2 ✔️ Compatible 1.20.4 ✔️ Compatible
1.16-1.16.3 ❌ Incompatible Newer snapshots ❌ Incompatible

# 6. The vehicles do not move. I am using a compatible version of Paper.

You need to open the paper.yml file and set armor-stand-tick: true.

Not necessary in the newest plugin version.


# 7. I've got lags. Is the plugin too demanding?

In case you're using Aternos, then you're probably right. As their servers are free, they might not be "beefy enough".

If you have your own server, try allocating more RAM.


# 8. How to create a vehicle shop?

We do not offer such a feature, however, you can achieve the same goal by installing any shop plugin out there.

  • If you want to use commands, use /mtv givecar <player> <UUID>. (Explained here.)

  • In case you need to use items, use vouchers - /mtv givevoucher <player> <UUID>. (Works exactly the same as /mtv givecar.)

    WARNING

    You should NOT sell cars which you get from /mtv menu. They already have an owner (and other properties you'd have to edit) set.


# 9. How to fuel a vehicle?

Enter the vehicle and left-click it while holding a jerry can. You may obtain this jerry can by executing /mtv fuel.

WARNING

Permission mtvehicles.benzine necessary.

Alternatively, you may execute /mtv refill while holding the vehicle in your hand.

WARNING

Permission mtvehicles.refill necessary.


# 10. How to shoot (from a tank)?

Firstly, only tank shoots (nothing else).

Secondly, press space to shoot!

If you want to shoot TNTs, you have to set tankTNT: true in config.yml and reload the plugin (/mtv reload)!


# 11. How to fly with a UFO?

UFO doesn't fly, only airplanes and helicopters do.


# 12. How to fly an airplane?

To take off, you need to reach a certain speed. Then, take off with space (the same way you would with a helicopter).


# 13. Why isn't my boat moving?

Boats need to be in at least 2-block-deep water to move. (This means you can't operate them in shallow waters and on land.)


# 14. The vehicle is removed from the data, how to remove up?

image

This will delete all armorstands in the raduis of 3. Make sure you stand in the middle of the vehicle or change the radius.

  • In Minecraft version 1.12.2 use /kill @e[type=ArmorStand,r=3]
  • Versions above 1.12.2 use /minecraft:kill @e[type=armor_stand,distance=..3]
