AutoRegionGuard
AutoRegionGuard
I'm currently working on a lighter version of ARG but I can't tell a release date yet.
Why ARG?
- You do not need any commands to claim chunks
- You do not need to define areas which can be claimed
- You do not need any admins to (un)claim chunks
- You do not need any admins to share your chunks
- You do not need any admins to protect all your stuff.
- You do not need any extra plugins to protect chests and everything else.
- Economy support!
- Fully automated chunk claiming!
Features:
- Automatically claims a chunk by placing an configurable ammount of blocks in it.
- Claimed chunks are protected from other players editing.
- Others can't steal stuff in claimed chunks (Chests, Furnaces, etc).
- Also explosions and fire doesn't affect on claimed chunks.
- Nobody can pull/push blocks with pistons through claimed chunks. Just the chunk owner.
- All protections can be handled by chunk owners
- Inactive players (offline since xx days) will loose chunks + friendlist after a specified time.
- All data is stored in MySQL! No flatfiles which are causing high I/O load.
- Friendlist !
Version notes:
- Currently ARG supports all blocks/items up to Minecraft 1.7.5 !
- This plugin does not work together with other protection plugins !
Plugin requirements:
- ARG requires a permissions plugin otherwise it will not work!

Metrics & Updates
ARG is using metrics to collect stats! It only collects basic things such as version type, players online, version of craftbukkit, etc.
Go into /plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml if you wish to disable that.
ARG also includes an update-checker and auto-updater. Go into /plugins/AutoRegionGuard/updater.yml if you wish to disable that.
Excuse me... I didn't see the newest release which could fix the problems I encounter, did you forget to upload it or it's not finished yet?
@imilkywayz
Well, it was designed to be a standalone protection plugin years ago.
That was the concept and it will be kept.
Also it's not the only "Self serve protection plugin" which doesn't rely on WG out there, just the oldest one and nobody knows about it because it was private for like 1,5 years :P
I personally think this plugin would be pretty cool if it instead of handling everything of a protection plugin on it's own, handed it off to WorldGuard. Redefining the region as more chunks are claimed. It's just an idea I'm throwing out there :P I think it's a good concept but replacing worldguard isn't something I'm willing todo yet :P
Uploaded v1.9. See changelog if you want to know what it contains!
Oh maaan, now I feel foolish. I havent updated to the most recent version, and therefore I havent got that command! Silly me. Is the latest version tested with 1.5.2? Still waiting on bukkit to update until we move out of 1.5.2 into 1.6.x Also, made a ticket with the suggestion for auto claim, thanks for the rapid response!
@Marky717
Thanks for the feedback.

ARG!
An excellent plugin that has kept our server safe from creepy people and griefers for over half a year, its been a life saver. I do have one question though. I noticed the ingame commands for turning off protection to redstone, etc. But didnt see any for door protection. It isnt a big issue, but I know that some players like building public builds which are protected to them. Of course, then people cant get through the doors. So far we have eliminated this issue by turning off redstone protection and placing a pressure plate to operate the door, but I feel door protection would be a much cleaner way of doing this. Is it at all possible?
And whilst im being annoying, I had a suggestion from an Admin on-server, asking if there was a way of having a togglable chunk claimer, maybe in the admin permission node? One that you can turn on, and move through the chunks to claim them, without retyping the /arg claim command. Many thanks for your continued support with this plugin, it is by far the best protection plugin ive used.

Nope.
Is this plugin compatible with FTB modpacks ? Auto protect blocks from mods?

Still not supporting any other protection plugins...

Because giving the players WorldGuard permissions would be a nightmare for us as they would ransack other regions with it and attempt to override them. What we were looking for is the ability of users to protect their own personal areas without being able to take over other peoples lands. We love the claiming system that comes with factions but factions is a very bad fit for our server and it is just too intense of a plugin. Your plugin was ALMOST perfect for our needs because it lets our users protect and regulate their own land without us having to do a thing at which point grief is due to user stupidity. Also being able to overlook WorldGuard is not a dependency but simply an extra feature. Actually, saying that this feature would make WorldGuard a dependency would mean that Vault is a dependency therefore meaning that this plugin has a dependency. Players would not NEED WorldGuard but if they had it, the plugin would leave that area alone. WorldGuard also offers flags for messages upon entering leaving, preventing users from killing themselves on stagnant lava, and other such things which makes it more critical. I mean if you don't support it you don't support it, I just felt like asking due to uncertainty. Thank you for the response anyways. It would be awesome if you could condense the claiming aspect of factions into a single plugin and do that separate with support for WG (as there are a TON of servers using WG for something) but I doubt you have the time for that lol. Cheers anyways mate.
Also if you read this and were thinking "well this guy just sounds like an ass" I am sorry for that, it wasn't my intention. I just happen to be very bad at tone lol.
@MythicCynic
And again: There is and there will be no support for WorldGuard and other protection plugins!
This plugin was created as a standalone version without any dependencies. Also why would you need two protection plugin?
So from what it sounds like, this plugin will OVERRIDE WorldGuard regions? If so is there anyway to stop that? I like the idea of the plugin a lot but it is absolutely useless if it overrides our spawn protection.
Truly an amazing idea. As a long time server owner looking for a simple way by which players can protect land, I have found nothing better. I haven't tried it out yet, but just from reading I can tell you know exactly what players need; a system by which player can have protected stuff without doing anything but what they want to do! Build! Also the way land will become unprotected after a certain amount of time is very useful, because as everyone knows, players do move on.You can't save someone's stuff forever.
Uploaded v1.7 which fixes a little bug and adds version checking.
See changelog for all changes.
@recon88 MultiWorld support would be awesome!

@recon88
I was not asking you to support custom blocks i was asking for a way to block right click interaction.
@ravand
1. Suggestion for you: Read the description
2. ARG will never support custom blocks. You have to use other plugins for Custom Minecraft servers.
@recon88
I want to make a suggestion:
We used to have this plugin on our Feed The Beast MindCrack server with MCPC running and everything works as it should no bugs or whatsoever but there is a huge problem with the protections. Only vanilla chests and other blocks you can store stuff in are protected from opening that means that on our FTB server people can open non vanilla chests machines and block menus which is a very severe problem. Therefor i wanted to ask wether it's possible to block rightclicking completely so that any interaction on the claimed land isn't possible anymore?
