Border Patrol
Border Patrol, an anti-greif plugin, allows users to create protected areas simply at little pain to the CPU of the server!
- Why not GriefPrevention? As this is a great plugin, I found it has too many features that are not needed.
- Why not Residence? The BorderPatrol plugin has more detailed commands, compared to Residence's 25+ Commands.
- Why not Towny? Towny is a great plugin, if you don't mind having an admin on at all times that knows all the commands!
- Why not WorldGuard? Do you really want every user on your server to have WorldEdit wands?
- Why not LogBlock/BB/etc.? They don't prevent griefing, just correct it.
Description
Border Patrol is a Lightweight, advanced, grief protection, plugin! Allowing users, with the right Permission, to create protected land, and share it with friends! Currently in development, the aimed release date is today.
Originally created for a server I enjoy getting on and know the admins quite well, as the current protection plugin was to heavy, and caused server lag.
How to use!
- Download and drop into your plugins.yml
- Start/reload your server.
- Edit config, and add permission nodes to groups.
- Note If you do not use an economy plugin, make sure to set the Economy option to false, otherwise, the protections will not work.
- Run your server free of worry!
Installing
1. Simply download the file
2. Drag it to your plugins folder.
3. Run or reload your server
Commands that are in use.
Just in case we have a help menu in game using the .bphelp.
1. In game, find a place where you want the protection to be. Keep in mind that this is a chunk ( a 16x16 block cross-section of the map) based protection.
2. Type the command /bpcreate to create a protected area! If you wish to make a protection larger than one chunk, you will have to give the -size flag and specify and odd number for width. Larger protections use the chunk you're standing in as the center and build outward until the chunk width is the size specified.
3. If you want the fence, simply type add to the command the -f flag.
Example:
- /bpcreate -f
- Creates a single chunk protection at the player's location with a fence at the border.
- /bpcreate -size 3 -f
- Creates a chunk protection that is 3 chunk wide, or a total of 9 chunks, centered at the player's location and a fence border.
And your done!
For a full list of commands and thier description, use the in-game command, /bphelp.

Cool plugin! Would you make this plugin work like interface for worldguard? I mean players just type /bpcreate -f and get wg region with fences on border etc.
Sorry for the long delay, I was sent to military school, updated now!
Yea, I'd rather use GreifPrevention as it's updated, it has Anti-Spam, and needs NO commands to use it's main feature: protecting builds. Just place a chest. It is a great idea, and it's light wheight. It doesn't appeal to me, but for small, low RAM Tekkit Classic servers, it's the plugin.
This would be great if it was updated frequently
Does this prevent people from breaking minecarts and boats?
@skore87
Ah ok, well I've asked a few other Plugin developers and all of them so far have said that they're not going to do what I'm asking, I just wanted a Plugin simpler than Towny. Thanks
@AeroEden
I stopped developing this plugin well over 6 months ago and purposefully left it partially broken so caleb would actually try to co-develop like he originally agreed to do (and did nothing instead). You would do best to find another protection plugin if you want to see regular updates.
Hopefully this is enough of a warning to those interested in this plugin to avoid using it.
Sorry.
Hey could you add the ability to add custom block ids for protection? I really want to use this Plugin on my FTB server. Thanks.
not sure why an admin would need to be on for Towny
still needs work
This is great. Not quite ready for my server, but great.
A few questions:
-As the admin, I would like only my mods and I to be able to create protections for ourselves AND others. Can we do this with this plugin?
-What happens if a player tries to claim another's are?
-Can I make a default configuration of flags to have on a new protection?
Now, a few ideas:
-I've always wanted a plugin that provides players with more land as they travel further from x:0, y:0. This would be toggle-able in the config file, along with a ratio. They ratio would be as follows: X:Y, X being the number of chunks the player has traveled from spawn, Y being the number of chunks they can claim for doing this.
So if X was 4, and Y was 2, the ratio would look like this: 4:2 And for every 4 chunks the player was from X:0, Y:0, the player would be able to claim 2 chunks. So if you were 8,9,10, or 11 chunks from XY:0, you could claim 4 chunks, but if you were only 4,5,6, or 7 chunks from XY:0, you could only have 2 chunks.
Is this possible?
I would really like to see the planned feature to not be able to claim in worldguard regions and a really essential feature would be multiworld support. I would like players to only be able to claim chunks in my build world not any of the others. Could you please add this :D thanks
@skore87
And if you were talking about the 's in there, I noticed those.
@skore87
You know what? That's a cool story bro. I know how, and I do care, but I do not have time.
Please leave this project
@calebbfmv
Sigh.... it isn't deleted, you just don't want to or know how to finish it. I left it partially broken because I wanted you to at least help code the plugin and not just sit back and relax when it was supposed to be a group effort.
@iPodwithnomusic
Hi,
I have not considered this, but I will. I am currently rewriting the entire project, as my partner decided to delete it all. In addition to that, I have work and school.
2.
I would not know of a reason for this.
Hi,
I have two questions,
Can you make it so the Mob_Damage protect also protects animals from explosions?
Every single time I reload the server I lose all my protections, am I doing something wrong?
@schmidtbochum
Sure.
Can you publish the source code? I like the idea of protecting chunks.
@CreepersssssRule
you need to port forward a port for other people to get on your server thats not in your local area network. go to www.portforward.com to help you do that!
