    Why not just use one of the big three (BB, Hawkeye, or LogBlock) in the meantime?

    Exactly, this is the replacement for them all.
    Database support will be via plugins for Guardian, and at release we will develop one for MYSQL.

    This isn't a question, there is no point in a single world limitation :D

    I think you should just release it without MySQL required. Most people would use this because of it. LogBlock, HawkEye and BigBrother don't work on alot of peoples server because the database is required, and alot of VPS' are using the CentOS, which mysql does not work correctly on.

    Add logging of bonemeal use and when trees grow (without it players can plant trees over greifed areas and then the rollback wont remove trees)

    also an idea to prevent rollback crashes if you havent thought of it yet, limit rolled back blocks per second (configurable) so that if the limit per second is 100 (realize this is small but good for example) and someone rolls back 1000 blocks. It would rollback 100 instantly and then qued (no idea how to spell that) up the others and keep rolling back 100 per second till que is empty so it would take about 10 sec to roll that back but it wouldnt crash.

    How many times do I have to say this!!!!!
    There are 9999999 reasons why WE are coding MYSQL as the first official database, and I'm not going to go over them, postgre will probably be next, along with sqlite and h2.

    Take this:
    sqlite loads the records into memory.
    The avergae database would have several million rows at the minimum.
    Anyone see issues arising?

    Really hard to say, but with the slow progress I would say at best a christmas present for server owners.

    Sorry, but what? MySQL doesn't work on CentOS correctly? Explain, please? Works just fine here.

    That is the way rollbacks currently work.

    Everyone does understand that running a flatfile with this plugin could eat up RAM right? Not to mention it stores almost every single block that was placed/pickup'd on the server. MySQL databases are not that hard to obtain. There are plenty of free websites that offer those kinds of services.

    Oh sorry yeah :p
    Oh and anyways another great idea.
    Add a way to configurate it through command or the web
    Cause since 1.8.1 you cant edit config files anymore while your server is running.

    Oh and i would be glad if you guys could test the plugin on my server ;)
    If you want to test it please message me cause im not spamming my ip ;)
    Thanks

    I had problems when I updated my CentOS to the latest version, I had to reinstall mysql and the commands to set it up were a bit different. Maybe that's your problem too, but I got it working!

    Sounds good! I heard rumors that it will be called Logblawk or something like that. Please make it so the name is creative and good sounding, like hawkeye or big brother. Thanks
