[ADMN / SEC] Protect Block. Protect the Blocks you place. [BukkitDev]

I will add a database in the future for sure , and players will not be able to build directly on/next to other players, protected, blocks in version 1.3. Also, make sure you're using /stop to stop your server, otherwise Protect Block doesn't get an opportunity to save the protection.

Thanks man, I noticed that I was not using /stop, so was not saving... And when 1.3 will be released??? I loved your plugin man, it's the best for block protecting because it's simple and eficient but can you make the command smaller? Like "/bp-on" or "bp-off"?

Done. The commands will be like /pb-on /pb-off /pb-help /pb [about] etc.

Helpful thanks!

No it will be /pb-friends add [name] . The commands stay the same, you can just use 'pb' to replace 'ProtectBlock' on any command. Eg. '/pb-on' rather than /protectblock-on. Or '/pb about' instead of '/protectblock about'. Or '/pb-help' rather than '/protectblock-help'. Etc...

Does this protect WorldEdit Block generation, like the wand command ( //set (block) ) ?

No, sorry.

Will you update to rb?

*will you update to the latest rb

Sorry for the misspell.

Yes. Version 1.2 should be compatible with all later releases of Bukkit. Version 1.3 of Protect Block (coming out soon) definitely will!

ok thanks a lot!

When will you release 1.3? Any idea?

Can you make one thing to this? Like, when we put a protected pressure plate, only the char that put the pressure can activate it, is it possible?

When I installed it, it tells me "You do not have permission to do this." when I use a command, and I am the Owner.

I really love this plugin but there is only one problem which occurs on my server.
When I use this on my server (mostly 10ppl online) it generates lots of data which creates lag on my server.

I had to disable this plugin because Minecraft wouldnt startup anymore. My file was about 150mb (for one person!).

In total there is 887mb over 50 persons which is loaded into memory...

How can I fix this?

Hi,
Sorry I have also noticed this bug. It is the Friends List's that are causing the problem. To temporarily fix this issue, stop the server and delete either the Friends-Save folder (in the ProtectBlock plugins folder) or the files inside the Friends-Save folder. Then start the server and ProtectBlock will regenerate a new folder and new files. Your players will have to re-add people the their friends lists and Protect Block will work as normal.
This will be fixed in version 1.3,
yianni000

Where is the 'java' file???

I can't install him now because i don't have the java file.

The java file is inside the ProtectBlock.zip file. Unzip the ProtectBlock.zip with WinRar or 7Zip or something similar, and place the ProtectBlock.jar file inside the plugins folder on your server.

No no, i don't see it. I see 7 plugins if i do com -> yianni000 -> protect block

Wait, you've just opened the ProtectBlock.jar file. Place that file inside your plugins folder - and restart your server - and you will have installed Protect Block

You know this would be a fantastic plugin if the permissions actually worked like they where suppose 2. The operators cant even use /protectblock it says you do not have permissions to use this..... Please fix it

MAJOR PROBLEM:
This has happened twice now, the files in /friends-save keep stuffing up & cause my server not to load. There really isn't a logical reason why this is happening! I need to delete the whole plug in & remove the protected blocks from my server now! Please help so this doesn't happen again

Yes, I've noticed that happening every now and again as well...
Should be fixed in the upcoming version - 1.3 - if not, post again

Hi,
That is a major bug in version 1.2 that should be fixed in version 1.3 - the only support that I can give you is to stop your server, delete the /Friends-Save folder and restart your server, Protect Block should generate another folder and you will keep your previously protected blocks.

Please do this with MultiVerse support! I've always looked into this plugin as a good one, but I only want a few worlds of my server protected, not them all.

Does the plugin go down every so offton or something? it seems like at times of the day the protection will random just, stop working it says the plugins in the server but when i type /protectblock-on/off it shows the command in chat but nothing happens

There is only one damn problem everytime i load the RUN.bat file it always says this
22:16:28 [INFO] [ProtectBlock] Enabling ProtectBlock v1.2
22:16:28 [INFO] [ProtectBlock] Protect Block Started.
22:16:28 [INFO] [ProtectBlock] Config file loaded!
After i Installed this plugin I had no Problems
Days after I downloaded another plugin after i installed it it always stays like that!
and its not the other plugin because I deleted the ProtectBlock plugin and it loaded fine to see what was the problem
. To fix it I have to reinstall the plugin. but the problem is that every block that I placed will be insecure again,
any fix for this ASAP!

It takes so much time to load , sometimes it WONT load

Same problem here dude....

My problem is the same when i install a new plugin id say 80% of the plugins i download completely break protectblock and we loose all our data the only way to fix is to uninstall everything (Can't even back up old saves, tryed, still messes it up)

Here are examples of my console when i start server when protectblock is working and when its not working:

Working: http://pastebin.com/BH9KEfCP

Not Working: http://pastebin.com/ed2MZamA

Ive found the fix to it , Go to the ProtectBlock folder and copy the saves.yml to the desktop then open it with notepad++ select all the coordinates of the blocks placed in the same file and copy them.
So when the plugin stops working stop the console and delete the protect folder on your Bukkit server (Not the JAVA File) reload the server, stop it and go to the Saves.yml on protect block , Remember the coordinates? paste them in that file, and you are done!
HOPE IT WORKS
P.s: Make sure you test it first after recopying the coordinates, just in case
