Currently opening inventories and enderchests of offline players is not supported and it is extremely useful to be able to see and modify items in those places.

Also you should add the ability to see the equipped armor with invsee.

I'm pretty sure that the this would require the use of NMS, so it won't be added.

Agree.

Agree

I +1 this feature. What about some sort of way that's similar to how the other open inventory plugins do it? Perhaps then it may not require much work related to NMS.

Would require nms though :(

But that would be a great feature :P

I'd rather not have Essentials break on every Minecraft version update, though.

No clue what nms is but ya sure there is no way around that? :(

But but I cri

NMS is accessing the minecraft servers objects/functions directly, instead through the BukkitAPI. This allows to do alot more with the server, however this means that it needs to be updated with every (bigger) change in the Minecraft source code. Also, it is not fun to work with for developers and the code usually looks ugly due to the obfuscation.

The only reason we do have NMS implementations for spawners is because Spigot does offer a Bukkit-only solution for 1.8.3+, so we don't need to update for newer versions. Unfortunately, this isn't a thing for offline inventory manipulation, and this doesn't seem reliable with reflection.

Why not use the plugin open inventory?

We already do it without nms. Adding it for offline players would require nms.

@drtshock will give OpenInv a try. Thanks.
Sounds like a good compromise using a 3rd party plugin for this feature and not adding NMS to ESS.

@Agazed for your 2nd issue, /invsee (player) armor? That's how it works for normal Essentials, doubt it's different here.

@Theepwner Haha! Never even knew that. Thanks for that! :P

@Theepwner i don't see armor with /invsee

I do with "/invsee (player) armor"
Never knew about this until now either.

Haha that's funny, new to me too.
