Giving Players starting items on a server

Hi,

I'm relatively new to this, and couldn't find the answer anywhere. I recently started a server for a few friends and I, and I'm wondering how to new members a set of starting items i.e. 5 pokeballs and a pokedex.

Thanks,

What I used was essentials, and I made a clickable starter kit (one use per player) at spawn.

Maybe you could just gamemode them in.

Make a kit in essentials config file.
Its fairly easy i'm on my phone so i can't copy paste my starter kit. I think by default if you name your kit starter it will give it to everyone new who joined.

And if they joined already OP yourself and do /kit starter *name*

Instead of doing the last bit, I would give them permissions to use a /kit starter sign at spawn and make the re-use time an absurd amount t so they can never re use it. As well in the Essentials config you need to set it so that the kit name "Starter" is your default kit. If you use Ctrl F to search the document it makes this process much easier

The crash on essentials kit giving on first join doesn't happen any more. Or at lease on my server, so no need for signs now, just auto-give! :D

Thanks for all the help guys and gals, like I said I'm super new at this. I couldn't get bukkit essentials to work. I have myself as OP. Are there any other useful mods you guys could recommend?

Essentials Kits it's is the simplest really. If you can't really figure it out, the internet can always help you

If you still can't figure it out I can help you by giving you the essentials config file.
