Book flag

[Booking50]

well i think there should be a flag where you can take books out of bookshelf but there should be a flag where if you try and get out of the lot with it it goes back in the bookshelf it would be something like /setflag nobook or something like that.

Yes,
Ever since I first thought of making the bookcase idea (which I got a while back from somebody else) this has been something I wanted to add aswel. Publicly allow people to take and read books. But return the books if they get a certain distance away from the bookcase.

The only problem I've been having is figuring out a way to do this, without inflicting much performance issues.

I also thought of this, multiple times, but wasn't sure how to do it. Hret, we can assign extra data to items, perhaps assign this to items in a lot with this flag, then when a player leaves, iterate through their inventory, and place the items back? The extra data may include the type of block the item was taken from, as well as its location.

That seems like it could work.

Perhaps also have it if the owner removes the book or a lot member, the book does not return?
