Changelog:
- 1.0 12/08/2011 - released plugin, job done.

 

Can we place chests beneath blocks?

 

You wouldn't be able to put any items in the chest in that case would you?

This is only meant to fix the exploit of users placing blocks ontop of chests in protected areas so people can't steal their items on non-griefing but still theiving servers.

 

Ah

 

Thanks alot, bud.

 

the source is a great use-case for a spoiler tag

 

wtf I just made this yesterday. I hate you.

 

Where? I don't see it in submissions.

 

Don't hate, appreciate that you both came up with a great idea.

 

I'm probably being an idiot, but i don't get the purpose of this.
So, i have a protected zone, and people can put blocks onto chests? No they can't :\ At least for me.

 

Good plugin, but please allow Signs and Torches, these two didn't block the chests and i need it to mark what's in the quests.

 

Was just about to say the same thing.

 

yes, i concur. Maybe add one perm node as well. An exemption for ops.

 

Can you make a permission node so when admin put a block above the chest others cant remove it

 

@codename_B
iConomy support please.

 

Thanks! This is just what I needed!
