Thats got nothing to with protection stones, its lag. The more lag the more blocks you build on to climb to where you want to go.

I found a bug. A way that a griefer can exploit it, I watched a friend do it and he was able to get up to a spot that he wasn't suppose to by placing a block. Sure, the block is removed. But for the split second that its their, he can still manage to HOP off it just before it disappears. This means he can jump over walls. You think you could make it so that they can't jump off the block? If the block isn't officially placed, then they shouldn't be able to jump off it, instead the block should act as "AIR" for like 2 seconds, before it becomes solid or something like that. know what I'm trying to say?

I understand its only 2 blocks high that they can get over, but the problem is I can't make the wall any higher cuz i spent so much time already optimizing it for single player mode as well as multilayer. So, I have a piston underneath that pushes a block up, so I can reach a ladder that is 2 blocks high. When the piston pushes the block up, then I can reach the ladder. but if I were to make the ladder too high up, then this trick won't work anymore then i won't be able to reach the ladder anymore. So, I was wondering if you people could adjust the protection stones plugin making it so that blocks that are placed won't allow people to jump off the block just before the protection stones plugin removes the block, for the split second that the block is their.

I just tested it with my other account that is non-admin and found that I can go over walls 4 blocks high. Blocks shouldn't even be stackable before they remove! The trick is to look straight down and hold down the right mouse button, at the same time holding the jump button. This trick will allow griefers to get over walls 4 blocks high. Maybe even more... who knows. So, they shouldn't be able to jump, or place another block over the last. Heck why not just remove their ability all together placing anything? Heck just disable the damn right and left mouse buttonsI don't know.

I use the plugin on a tekkit server of mine and have gotten some complaints that some tekkit items won't work like the quarry. I realize that the plugin recognizes the quarry as a griefer and wont allow it to destroy blocks. How can I bypass this? I want it so that people can have a protected area and also use things such as the quarry in that protected area. I have looked at the config file and am and in need of assistance. Thank you.

OK, so I really cannot figure out the best way to where Globally you cant build but when you place a stone it will allow you to. I do not even know if this is possible but I have tried many different combinations.

Is there a way to make them toggled off by default?

Is there a way to disable this for one group of players so they can place diamond ore regularly, but have it enabled for another group so they can place the stones? Or even toggle it?

This sounds like a worldguard setup problem to me, confirm that worldguard works how you want it before you introduce this plugin. I use bPermissions so I cant help you with your cfg.

@Felix06

That doesn't make sense, if you want to stop people from building outside of a protected area, then they wont be able to create a protected area themselves with this plugin if they don't have build rights.

If they choose not protect their own area, that's their problem.

hey I cant get the permissions to work. No matter what i do no one including myself who is the owner of the server can get the permissions to do anything i cant add people to regions or anything please help! I am using permissionsex and this is how i have my permissions set up: - protectionstones.addowner - protectionstones.add - protectionstones.info - protectionstones.hide - protectionstones.view - protectionstones.remove - protectionstones.removeowner can anyone please help me.

Is there any way to set it so you can't build unless it's in your protected area? Noobs keep going and building out in the wild and not protecting it, even after the tutorial you have to do to get in the server -.-

I've found out whats going on, although the none of the builder group have their own protected area, there are two protected areas that they have limited access to. Mystery explained :)

I seem to have got the plugin to work, however to give a builder group just 1 protected area I had to set the limit to 3, ie for the VIP+ group to have 15 protected areas I had to set the limit to 17. For some reason I had to add 2 to the amount the number of protected areas a builder group is entitled to.

Instead of using diamond etc, I changed the protection blocks to emerald ore. Finally Ore is usefull, will be interesting to see what the players with silk touch picks will sell their ore for now. Although I may give each new user 1 emerald ore to start with.

Blocks:
- EMERALD_ORE 10
Flags:
- use deny
- greeting Entering %player%'s protected area
- farewell Leaving %player%'s protected area
Region:
  SKYBEDROCK: true
  AUTOHIDE: false
  NODROP: false
  NOSILKTOUCH: false
  LIMIT: -2

  LIMIT1: 0
  LIMIT2: 3
  LIMIT3: 4
  LIMIT4: 6
  LIMIT5: 17
  LIMIT6: -1
  LIMIT7: 0
  LIMIT8: 0
  LIMIT9: 0
  BLOCKS1: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS2: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS3: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS4: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS5: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS6: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS7: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS8: EMERALD_ORE
  BLOCKS9: EMERALD_ORE

Hello!

Is there a way to add some lines in so placing the stones has a cost? also is there a way for players to rename their protection fields?

Thanks
