PrivateChests
A Powerful and secure anti-grief tool for storage blocks
Usage
- Place a storage block (Chest, Furnace, Crafting table, Brewing stand, etc.)
- Place an empty sign on the block
- Optional: Instead of having the sign blank, write "[private]" on the first line and then the names of authorized people on the following lines
- Protect all your Chests, Trapped chests, Crafting tables, Brewing stands, Enchantment tables, Droppers, Hoppers, Dispensers, Furnaces, Beacons and Cauldrons
- Easy to set up and easy to use (No configuration or permissions needed for basic usage)
- Explosion protection (Creepers, TNT, etc)
- Hopper protection
- Break protection
- Double chest protection (Makes it impossible for people not authorized to connect to a protected chest, double chests needs to be protected on both chests)
- Automatically remove private signs when players are inactive (configurable amount of time)
- Players can be alerted when an admin is searching or using protected blocks
- privatechests.private: Allows a user to create a private sign, set by default
- privatechests.alert: User will get an alert if a protected block is interacted with, set by default
- privatechests.admin.ignore: Allows a user to interact with blocks made private by other users
- privatechests.admin.noalert: Users will not get notified when a user with this permission searches or uses a protected block
More Usage Information and Restrictions:
- Only players on the protection sign are allowed to place a hopper directly under a protected storage block.
- Minecart hoppers are not able to pull items out of protected storage blocks.
- It is not possible for a person not on the protection sign to place a sign adjacent to a storage block.
- You can have as much as 4 signs on each block and 6 on double chests, allowing 12 people to access normal blocks and 18 to double chests.
- People who don't have the "privatechests.private" permission can not place wall signs with "[private]" on the first line.
