Backup System

Using /lt backup and /lt backup zip, you can back up your worlds to the archive folder. A single backup is allowed per day. It is optional (and recommended) to use the backup system such that it works with the http://wiki.sk89q.com/wiki/WorldEdit/Snapshots WorldEdit snapshot system.

Quote from Setting up the System:

1. Configure the /plugins/LumenTech/config.yml file to contain every world you want backed up. (see images)
2. "keep" represents how many backups you want to keep of each world. (2 is the recommended number)
3. you can choose to change the path, though it is not recommended.
4. Configure worldedit's /plugins/WorldEdit/config.yml file.
5. Executing /lt backup will place backups in the /archives/ folder for use with the http://wiki.sk89q.com/wiki/WorldEdit/Snapshots WorldEdit snapshot system.
6. Executing "/lt backup zip" will zip your worlds to zip files for easy download.
7. To make use of a worldedit snapshot, see the following section in the worldedit wiki. http://wiki.sk89q.com/wiki/WorldEdit/Snapshots#Restoring link

LumenTech config on left, WorldEdit config on right. Notice how you can also backup plugin files if you want to do so.

Whitelisting/ Banwalling

/lt lockdown <mode> provides a few modes to prevent certain players from connecting to your server. This will be useful in case of login packet spammers, or a need to perform server maintenance. (Images pending. Have a client that can spam these packets? Contact me. We'll set up a photo shoot.)

Quote from Modes:

/lockdown -2 Deny entry from new IP addresses and new users. Blocks "logged in from another location" kicks. This is an ideal mode when running your server in offline mode because of the login servers being down. Note it is not 100% safe. There is ONE situation where someone can log in as you. They must log in from the same IP address and name as you while you are NOT already logged in. Fortunately, the only way that would be possible is if they were using the same router as you.

/lockdown -1 Same as lockdown -2, except it allows new people to join your server. Once they join your server, the program will not allow them to log in with a different IP after that while you are still in lockdown -1 or lockdown -2. Why do I add a feature that allows new people to join like this? Because yolo, that's why. Fucking yolo.

/lockdown 0 Disables lockdown mode. All players are allowed entry.

/lockdown 1 Denies entry to anyone who hasn't been on your server yet.

/lockdown 2 Denies entry to anyone who isn't OP.

/lockdown 3 Denies entry to everyone. (So don't exit the server unless you have access to console.)

Trolling the Trolls

Griefers are such trolls, aren't they? I think they should get a taste of their own medicine. Most of these effects are only visible to THEM. Grief the griefers with these trolling abilities. Mouse over the images to see the corresponding troll parameter. /troll <name> <param>.

DISCLAIMER: If I get reports of people using these troll commands in an abusive way on non-griefers I will strongly consider removing access to troll command abilities in future releases. So please use this with fair judgement.

Anti Griefer Listeners

Anti Spam

Quote:

The anti spam feature is still a work in progress. Blocks users from repeating themselves more than 3 times, or talking too quickly in an impossible amount of time. Also blocks posting of links. You can enable it or disable it via the config. If you require more customization options, or have questions feel free to contact Pangamma somehow.

Anti Laggy item placement

Quote:

If a user places a certain (high) number of TNT carts in a minute, all staff (with the lumentech.staff permission node) will be notified of the high placement rate. If a user continues to place at the high rate, they will be given a warning to STOP. Staff will be notified again. If the cart placement continues past the maximum limit, they will be automatically banned from the server and their placed tnt carts will be removed. You can disable this in the config. I might also add a config option for the time span + cart count required for such an action, as well as the option to kick OR ban. (want this to happen? put in a request.)

Disable forceop

Quote:

LumenTech will make attempts to stop any forceop plugin that gets onto your server. If you prefer to not have this protection, disable it in the config.
