WorldGuard

Logo

WorldGuard is a powerful plugin providing all the little things (and some big ones), and it protects your servers from various problems.

  • Block creeper and wither block damage, falling damage, etc.;
  • Disable fire spread, lava fire spread, ice formation, Endermen picking up blocks, etc.;
  • Blacklist certain items and blocks so they can't be used;
  • Warn moderators when certain items and blocks are used;
  • Protect areas of your world so only certain people can build in them;
  • Set areas where PVP, TNT, mob damage, and other features are disabled;
  • Protect your server from various 'exploits' like magical obsidian creation machines;
  • Disable, or enable, various Minecraft features, like sponges from classic;
  • Add useful commands like an immediate "STOP ALL FIRE SPREAD" command.
  • Enable only features you want! Everything is off by default.

Want better /time /tp, homes, warps? Get CommandBook. Want to add cool elevators and new Redstone features? How about CraftBook?

Getting Started

Installation

Bukkit is currently required. In the future, WorldGuard will be available for Forge and other APIs.

  1. Install WorldEdit first. (DON'T FORGET THIS)
  2. Download WorldGuard and install it the same way.
  3. Run your server once to generate the files.
  4. Edit plugins/WorldGuard/config.yml to your liking.
  5. Use the command /wg reload to reload your configuration (use worldguard.* for all permissions).

To setup protected regions or the blacklist, you'll have to read the wiki (see below).

Want more features, faster? We need some help with something!

Documentation

What are the permissions? The commands? Check out the wiki below.

    I have a problem with the flag "allowed-cmds": If I'd like to allow multiple commands, there will be only the first command allowed.
    /rg flag region allowed-cmds home,warp,spawn - In this case, the commands will be sort in another system, so that "spawn" is the first command, and this is the only working command in this region

    Hopefully somebody can help me.

    My plugins: ClickWarp | GroupMessages | EasyWarn (with MisterLuca98)

    spawn: type: cuboid min: {x: -67.0, y: 0.0, z: 48.0} max: {x: 158.0, y: 228.0, z: 226.0} priority: 0 flags: {pistons: allow, pvp: deny, chest-access: allow, other-explosion: deny, ghast-fireball: deny, snow-fall: deny, mob-spawning: deny}

    mobs still spawn in the zone and people can still break heads/skulls

    Guys come on, Before asking questions, read everything on this page. I mean no I personally don't like to read, but I could already answer every one of your questions because i watched the Samkio Videos explaining EVERYTHING you guys are asking for. and just to let you know, that's the EXACT reason the plugin owner probably doesn't respond to you. Just saying.

    Whenever a player tries to use a chest, they aren't able to unless "build" is set to "allow". I have both chest-access and use set to allow yet they cant access chests if "build" is set to deny. It only started doing this recently, and I updated worldguard way before. Help?

    Is it possible to make lava spread everywhere like normally except not on cobblestone? I want to stop people putting water on lava mountains and then lava on the cobble generated after that. So basically block lava spreading on cobblestone only.
