About Yet Another World Protector

From Modrinth

Yet Another World Protector, or YAWP for short, is a server-side mod which allows you to protect your creations against various different events/actions of players, mobs and the environment.

Yet Another World Protector

Yet Another World Protector (YAWP) is _the_ admin tool to protect your minecraft server (dedicated or LAN as well as single-player!). It's available for (Neo-) Forge and Fabric.

YAWP designed to be used on dedicated servers, but can also be used in single player worlds and worlds opened to LAN. It allows admins (and players with assigned permission) to protect their creations against various events/actions of players, mobs and the environment.

Create regions for your builds and apply region flags to protect them. Assign players or vanilla teams to regions, so they can manage their own regions.

YAWP was inspired by the forge mod WorldProtector and the WorldGuard plugin.
