Tekkit Customizer
Use this plugin to ban items and blocks for Bukkit, Tekkit, and FTB servers using the Bukkit API. TekkitCustomizer removes banned items from the world and player inventories. It is easy to configure, can be applied retroactively, and automatically logs confiscated items. It requires no permissions plugin unless exceptions are need for certain players. The plugin settings default to commonly-banned Tekkit items.
Because every story that starts with "We decided to start up a Server..." shouldn't end with "...so we had to reset the world."
Installation
Copy the .jar file into your plugins folder to install the plugin. Then restart the server or use a plugin manager to load the plugin.
Configuration
An entry in the config file (config.yml) to ban ALL wool looks like this:
35:*:wool:because pink wool is for girls
- The first part is the material ID.
- The second part is the data value. Some blocks have the same ID, but a different data value. For instance, white wool is 35:0, while pink wool is 35:6. If you put an asterisk, that means ban ALL data values for the given material ID.
- The third part is for your reference. It will appear in the logs to shorthand what the various IDs and data values mean.
- The fourth part is the reason for the ban. It will be shown to players at useful times such as when a player tries to craft a banned item. If you don't fill in the reasons for your bans, you will be constantly asked why various items are banned.
After you edit your ban list, use /ReloadBannedItems to update the bans in-game. If your config.yml file "resets itself", that means you made a formatting mistake while editing the file. NotepadPlusPlus is a free file editor perfect for editing YAML files
A full list of Block IDs will help you add banned items. You can also get the block IDs and Data Values by using /blockinfo (requires /op or tekkitcustomizer.blockinfo permission). This tells you the information about the item you're holding and the one you're pointing at in the world. Some items have a different values in your inventory as opposed to ones place in the world (eg. a door item in the inv vs a placed door in the world).
Making Ban Exceptions
A player who has /op automatically ignores bans as with any player with permission:
tekkitcustomizer.*
You can make individual ban exceptions to give some players to generally banned items through permission nodes. Here are various examples, which should help you understand without further explanation.
- tekkitcustomizer.35.*.use - tekkitcustomizer.35.6.place - tekkitcustomizer.35.*.craft - tekkitcustomizer.35.6.own - tekkitcustomizer.35.6.* - tekkitcustomizer.35.*.*
You can't prevent a specific player's placed block from being removed from the world as this plugin does not track who owns placed blocks in the world.
Types of Bans
Usage Bans
This ban prevents players from using an item, which means left-click or right-click while the item is in-hand. This works well for items like the Mining Laser, but won't stop players from using items which benefit from passive use (eg. modded armors, Talisman of Repair, etc.). You will need a crafting ban or ownership ban to prevent players from getting those items at all.
It's not possible for any plugin to prevent a player from using an item when it is activated by a keystroke (eg. R, G, C, etc.), which are common especially for Equivalent Exchange items. This is why many EE items are on the default ownership bans list even though their functions are not all really ban-worthy.
Crafting Bans
This ban prevents players from crafting an item. When the player tries to craft the item, they get a message that they can't. This is the most player-friendly approach to preventing players from getting banned items. Forge mods don't always hook into Bukkit, meaning its possible for players to get banned items through some automatic or non-crafting approach (eg. alchemy). When you crafting-ban an item, test for workarounds, which may lead you to ban additional items to prevent those workarounds. The contraband scanner will help you identify the existence of workarounds by creating log messages each time it takes an item out of a player's inventory.
Ownership Bans
This ban prevents player from picking up an item from the ground or from a container (eg. a chest). If a player doesn't have permission to own an item, they won't be able to craft it. The contraband scanner will search each player's inventory for ownership-banned items and actually remove them without warning, notification, or compensation. Any items which are actually found in a player's inventory which the player doesn't have permission for will trigger a log entry, so you can follow-up with an investigation to find out how the player managed to get the item in the first place.
Placement Bans
This ban prevents a player from building a block in the world. A player that already has an item which is later placement-banned can still trade it with another player or break it down into energy (EE mod) to get some value out of it.
It is recommend to place most or all placement ban items to your crafting ban list. This will prevent your players from unknowingly spending their resources to craft a block which they then can't place in the world like they planned leading to them feeling cheated and likely complaining. The only exception you might make to this rule is for an item which can't be placed, but is still useful because it's an ingredient in another recipe for an item you haven't banned.
World Bans
This ban will retroactively remove the placed block from the world through the contraband scanner. This is great if you need to ban an item, but also know it's in the world (eg. energy collectors and world anchors). This will help clean up newly-banned items without having to search your entire world for them. There are exceptions to this removal as the scanner can't determine who owns the block.
Similar to the ownership ban, this ban will trigger a log message when a contraband block is removed, along with its location so that you may investigate to find out how the block got there in the first place.
Notes
Download the correct CraftBukkit version for your server as labelled on the uploaded files as major Bukkit API changes occurred between 1.2.5 to 1.4.7.
The default ban list is made for Classic Tekkit based on hands on testing done by BigScary. Before deciding to remove items from this list, be sure to read the reasons for default bans to understand why it was originally removed. If you are running FTB, Tekkit Lite, or other mod packs, do your own research for what you want banned and change the config file accordingly.
Save yourself some time! Check our Frequently Asked Questions page for the answer to your question. If you found a bug, make a ticket and include your config file.
The following features are planned for the next release:
- Vastly improved performance (Confirmed)
- Add configurable scanner settings (Confirmed, in progress)
- Change in config file structure (Confirmed, in progress)
- Change in permission nodes (Tentative, investigating)
- Consolidate Usage Bans and Placement Bans (Tentative, investigating)
- Consolidate Ownership Bans and Crafting Bans (Tentative, investigating)
- Dropped 1.2.5 support (Tentative)
- Dropped explosion prevention support (Confirmed)

Unlike other players who have a choice to play the game, my commitment to development and administration usually means I cannot and I'm fine with that choice. A lot of my free time is actually spent designing, developing, testing, and fixing plugins like this one to make Minecraft more enjoyful for all players.

can you plz update this plugin i really need it for 1.5.2 and i having lot of griefers on my server griefing, or use laggy items to crash the server
I've just updated to 1.5.2 version of the Direwolf20 pack and now I'm getting these errors
Anyone know whats going on? Or even if this plugin is being updated anymore? This is one of the best plugins for modded servers (Tekkit, FTB, etc) and it would be a shame for it to become outdated and unusable.
@RustyDagger
dont you mean you dont know how to use this. because i have no issues with mystcraft
I will no longer maintain this plugin. I'm busy with a lot of other stuff.
So I'm searching for an experienced Coder to help me out with this. Please pm me!
Is the latest version still compatibile with 1.5.2?
@ RustyDagger
There is a reload command /reloadbanneditems
Give it a go, it really works too xD
spam :P
Hello ,
Servwe running MCPC-plus-1.4.7-R1.1-SNAPSHOT-f528-209 ( Tekkit Lite serwer 0.5.7 ) all plugins in 1.4.7 work, but I have a problem with Tekkit Customizer :(
can not keep off the explosion . so that for example, a laser with function explosion , not destroy blocks only deal damage the same nuke, only damage without destroying
@lme999
From what iv found it works ok ish on FTB and you would already know that if you took the time to read any of the comments I just have to disable myst craft 100% causer this useless config resetting pos plugin does not seem to know how to enforce bans on those maps at all.
Before I go ahead and test this plug-in, I'm wondering if this is only for tekkit or if it would work on Feed the Beast Mindcrack as well?
I cant seem to get Tekkit Customizer to enforce it bans on my mystcraft map. I have added the name to the file ( folder name ) and it still refuses to work. it also does not seem to liek to block ownership of linking books as i enforced that on my main map where all the other bans are working and i can still hold it and right click.
I am not OP and i do not have bypass permissions. something is broke :(
and for gods sake can you add a config reload command so i don't have to keep rebooting the server it takes so long to boot up iv literally spent all day waiting for the server to start up.

hey man i keep geting this warning when i use it http://pastebin.com/rfrmQkdL
any info plz
@Ryat20
You have it placement banned don't you?
That will also prevent crafting. You cant have it placement banned and craft able STUPID RULE.
IMO that's really stupid feature. For example i don't want turtles on my main map but want to allow them on my other mining map means i cant placement ban them on the main map because it will stop players crafting them and i want that so they can take them to the mining map... Annoying
This plugin is the absolute worst piece of sh!t.. any yml error and it resets the whole file to its default that is lets face it completely useless. who the heck even plays tekkit any more.. ftb 10x better and well after spending hours blocking and denying usage to around 80 items to have it all undone because of one typo is kinda stupid and don't give me any bull about that's how yml works not a single other plugins config resets on a yml error stupid retarded coding. if it has an error just hang the gdam server the server owner will notice and fix the issue.
There was no error, and the plugin fairy came to my server and fixed it cause it's magically working again...
Running bukkitforge 257 and tekkitcustomizer 1.6 for 1.47. FTB Ultimate 1.1.2
Ive tried bpermissions and group manager using this permission node.
- tekkitcustomizer.43.5.craft
Ive tried
- tekkitcustomizer.43.5.craft
Ive even tried it with quantum armor
- tekkitcustomizer.30172.*.craft
tekkitcustomizer will ban the crafting of the item, it just isnt allowing the exception to players per group.
Any help?
I'll make a new plugin, sth. like FTB/Tekkit - Customizer. Better organized, up2date and maybe a bit more leightweight code :)
Post the error if there's one.
Any reason why a placement ban would just 'stop working' I have an item placement banned only (for server crash reasons but I still want it otherwise usable) and it worked fine at first and now all of a sudden players can place it, anything that may cause an error like this?
