breaking blocks on the ground, and trees, but allowing them to build? For example, I have a large area of land, but I dont want anyone to dig holes in it, or go mining in it, so how do I prevent them from breaking the ground blocks? I also dont want them to break trees, but I want them to be able to build on the ground.
Strange idea(minecraft without being able to mine ^^) but you may try those world-guard plugin. Unfortunately it allows only cuboid regions to be protected. Will look very dull if used in a mountain-rich area Just define the (hopefully FLAT) surface of your area and prevent your players from changing and breaking the ground.. Above the defined region they can do all what they want
Well the only reason that I dont want them to mine is because griefers and idiotic players will make a big mess of things. I plan to create separate areas for mining and woodcutting. Also, wouldnt the lower layers of the mountain get protect, and not the upper ones? =/
@Cycloned Enabling the ModifyWorld feature of PermissionEx requires the player to possess certain permission nodes to do otherwise Vanilla things. You can give them the parent Modifyworld node and subtract those individual which you do not want them to have. This will minimize the size of your Permissions. For example, modifyworld.* -modifyworld.blocks.destroy.17 (cannot break trees) My server uses this system as a licensing system. Miners have to earn their license to extract certain ores and the like. You will have to also use the PermissionsEx system and enable this feature in the plugin's respected configuration file.
