The leader in modular sign based block protection


Features

  • No databases. In-game signs only.
  • Super permissions support ONLY.
  • Protects any type of furnace, dispenser, chest, door, trapdoor, cauldron, enchantment table, or brewing stand.
  • Broadcast specific admin actions to those with "deadbolt.broadcast.xxx"
  • Denies explosions, pistons, and redstone from circumventing protection
  • Timed doors, [Timer:#], that toggle after a certain delay
  • Server-wide protected blocks, use [Everyone] on line 3 or 4
  • Modular plugin hooking system, add your own easily
  • Compatible with Lockette
  • Optional sign coloring
  • Localization support

Notes

As this is a Lockette-type plugin, also similar to Alerter or BlockLock, things may seem similar. This plugin was originally created as a continuation of Lockette by Acru to add trapdoor support and other recent developments. Portions of this project were reverse engineered from Lockette and the original idea for a sign-based locking system still belongs with Acru. Credit where credit is due. As this only supports super permissions, if you need a plugin that is more backwards compatible with older configurations, you may want to look at Lockette.

If you have another plugin such as Cenotaph or ChestShop3 that you have integrated with Lockette and would rather use Deadbolt instead, I have created a LocketteSimulator that will allow you to use Deadbolt.

Check GitHub for the most recent files, there is a slight delay in getting files posted here authorized by the staff.


Usage

Place a sign next to the item you want to protect and type in the following

  • Line 1: [Private]
  • Line 2: Your name will be automatically filled, users with "deadbolt.admin.create" can specify someone else.
  • Lines 3 and 4: You have a couple options for these lines
    1. Another player's name
    2. Unrestricted access via [Everyone] while preventing breaking
    3. Create an automatic timed door using [Timer:1] through [Timer:9]

Not enough room for all the names you need? Make another sign with the [More Users] on line 1
For ease of use in maintaining your signs without having to break them:

  1. Right click the sign to select it.
  2. Use "/deadbolt <line number> <text>" to directly modify that line. When placing signs, valid locations are to the NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, and WEST of the target block.
    Other valid blocks include:
  • Doors: The blocks above and below.
  • Trapdoors: The block that it is attached to (hinge-block) and directly above/below the trapdoor itself.
  • Fence gates: Any block horizontally adjacent to the gate itself.
    Use your imagination and hide those unsightly signs under walls.
    Also, color is now available! Just add "deadbolt.user.color" and use &1-9,a-f in your sign.

Issues?

The following issues are known:

  • Double timer doors are broken
  • Force coloring of Signs placed directly onto walls is broken.
  • Vertical trapdoor chaining has been removed because it was only half implemented

    @md_5: Go

    Hey could you please add support for custom block id's? I really wanna use it on my Feed The Beast server, I'm using MCPC+ (which is hosted off your Jenkins :D). Also I love how one sign for all connected blocks can protect all of them, so if you could make that happen with custom blocks that would be epic! Thanks and hope hear from you soon.

    Please add support for Trapped Chests in 1.5.1
    I have a chest wall and can only protect half of them.

    Yes! Stop players from placing hoppers next to other players locked chests!

    Here's a suggestion for integration between Deadbolt and Factions, though it would probably need to exist in another plugin:

    1. You claim land containing a locked chest.

    2. A new timer starts for that claim, specific to your faction.

    3. When that timer runs out, the chest unlocks. This time limit would be a customizable setting, in minutes.

    4. An active timer would be removed if its chunk is unclaimed.

    Other solution might be autoprotect the block under the chest

    I know the first 1.5 dev build just came out and all, but wandering if it is possible to make ti so a hopper / hopper Minecart can't take items from a chest that is locked?

    Support SimpleClans2.

    [ClanTag] does not work with it.
